Four Polar Bear Shifters from the wilds of Alaska have moved to our South Jersey town of Barvale.
Inside this collection is books 1-4 in the Barvale Clan Tales:
Polar Opposites
Polar Outbreak
Polar Compound
Polar Curve
These sexy Shifters desperately long to settle down as permanent members of the Barvale Clan so they can finally have a place to call home.
Time is running out. The terms of their arrangement dictate that without a solid invitation from the Barvale Clan Alpha, the quartet must return to their previous Clan where they were treated as nothing more than outsiders. Hated and feared by those around them.
There’s just one small problem. The Barvale Alpha has made it clear that unless they get better control of their Polar Bears, he will not take them in. To do that, the four Polars must find their one true mates. It is the only way to settle the wild beasts inside of them!
Will fate deliver their perfect mates before time runs out?

Take me to the frozen north
The author has outdone herself with this collection! She took all the romance and danger of one of my favorite series and put them in this easy to enjoy box set. Just check out what these wild white bears are up to.
Polar Opposites
Better than a vacation
So good! I love how the author took Bowie completely by surprise when she introduced Roxie to the clan. He is one of my favorite kind of characters, alpha to the core and yet this hidden soft center that not many get the chance to see. Maybe that’s why he saw the real fox behind the facade. No matter the reason, the author takes these two on a merry chase to their home and their HEA. I don’t know what the author has in store for the rest of the clan, but I can’t wait to see the women that will tame the triplets.
5 stars
Polar Outbreak
Get ready for a frosty treat
I really do love these polar bears. They are rough and tough, big and bold, unpolished and totally alpha, but they melt into a pile of mush as soon as they meet their mates. I think Locke is probably my favorite because the author hid this sweet gentle soul in the body of this over seven foot tall giant. She couldn’t have created a better mate for him when she brought Nita into his life. She is tall and proud and alpha herself. I love the family dynamics, could there be a match made in heaven for Maya among the triplets, and the intensity of the story. This author has a way with words that makes a story real enough you wish there was such a place. I can’t wait to read the next book when she takes us back to Barevale and we get to see what shenanigans those bears get up to.
5 stars
Polar Compound
I’ll keep you warm
I think this book just became my new favorite read! I absolutely love the Nanouk triplets! They each have their own little hang-ups, mostly from a disturbing past that for the most they are pretty much glad to be rid of. I love how Maya is so strong even with all that she has endured and that the gentle giant, Tonic, is quite bluster to hide his own insecurities. These two really are a match meant to be, if they can get on the same page that is. The author kept the intensity high with so many things trying to get in the way of their love, but with help from several unexpected sources these two might just get their HEA. This story kept me enthralled from the very first page until the last little Easter egg and I will be on pins and needles until I get to hear all about Boulder's story.
5 stars
Polar Curve
Love me for me
Every book in this series has become my new favorite, and this one is no exception. How can you not love these two shy bears who seem destined to always just miss their HEA? That is until fate plays her hand. The author had me enthralled from the very beginning and I just couldn’t stop reading until this family is complete. The story is fresh and new and one that I will be reading again and again, well at least until the next book comes out and I once again meet my new book boyfriend.

These brothers/cousins are banished from their home. They find conditional acceptance in Barvale. Hard working, kind, loyal, reliable, and a little untamed, they each find their reason to stay. I thoroughly enjoyed each story and highly recommend them.

C.D. Gorri's Barvale Clan Tales is a delightful four-book series that introduces readers to four awesome Polar Bear shifters who were banished from their White Clan in Alaska. This series is a spin-off of the Bear Claw Tales and also introduces us to four capable and delectable Black Bear bakers.
Once again, readers are treated to exciting, entertaining stories filled with hot, sexy bears, romance, adventure, and heart. Each book is well written, with engaging characters who capture your attention from the very first page. While each story can be enjoyed as a standalone, the series is even more rewarding when read in order.
The Bear Claw shifters are on a quest to find their fated mates before they go feral. The characters are passionate, relatable, and unforgettable. The Polar Bears are a wonderful addition to Barvale, where they hope to finally find a place they can call home. Each story features a unique plot filled with drama, suspense, and romance.
One of my favorite aspects of this series is the way the stories and characters intertwine, creating a rich sense of community and continuity. The connections between the books make the box set especially enjoyable and leave readers eager to continue with the next series. Will the Black Bears find their true mates? Will those mates accept them? Will the Polar Bears finally find the home they've been searching for?
C.D. Gorri has a gift for drawing readers into her stories, keeping them engaged, and never letting go. I was delighted to remain in Barvale a little longer with these incredible, loving bears.
I hope there are many more stories to come from Barvale, and I would love to read about the next generation of cubs!

Book: The Barvale Clan Tales Books 1-4
Author: C.D. Gorri
My Rating: 5 Stars

REVIEW
Inside this collection is books 1-4 in the Barvale Clan Tales:
And I am leaving a review for each as I have previously read them all.
Polar Opposites
Finally, her first real vacation and Roxanne is looking forward to it until...
Bowie is grateful that he has a home, a great job, and his cousins what more could this Polar Bear need?
This is a true opposite attract story and Roxanne is not the squeaky little fox she looks like. Although she has always done as she was told by her father and brother her entire life. It takes one sexy, huge, large white bear to help her see she is so much more.
I loved the chemistry between these two. Now can she say bye to her skulk? Can Bowie accept he isn't to blame for his bad past?
Polar Outbreak
Locke is the quiet triplet, his two brothers well haha...
So just for the heck of it, he tags along although not wanting to with his brothers to a place for a few beers. That is when his world gets tilted upside down.
Nita is a black bear who is just starting her very own business in town. So why is someone who is liked by all being stalked?
Will her mate get his head on straight and save the day?
I enjoyed this story a lot. The sassiness in Nita, and the shyness of the huge and hulking Locke. The action is good too.
Grab your copy although it's book two you might read it before book one I wouldn't...
Polar Compound
Maya knows who Tonic is to her, however, she doesn't want the heartache. He is pushy and doesn't seem to think. And she has been bullied by others long enough for two reasons which will become very useful this time around for her.
Tonic knows Maya is his, but how to get her to accept it?
When Maya finds herself losing everything it's Tonic to the rescue and he will help her see just how much he needs her, and she wants him.
Another wonderful story in the Barvale Clan Tales series and this Polar Bear isn't taking no for an answer.
Polar Curve
We are getting Bolder's story and what a story it is. As the last book left us Bolder gets one heck of a surprise, the one he left behind when they fled Alaska is in his town, in New Jersey, and she has a surprise for him.
This bear wants to go slow, but Eva is sick of slow and needs him to stake his claim or let her go. What will this big ole polar bear do?
I loved the characters, and I love that we have the entire bunch in this story. Hilarious, a bit of action, and tons of heart.
I read each of these books previously.

Highly recommended series!

This is an excellent collection of shifter stories, all polar bear. The stories are fun and fast paced, steamy with great characters. I read each story individually but to have them all together is great. They are all well written, great characters and fun reads. I loved them all.

All four books were great reads. Being able to follow all four men on their journey to their mates made it extra special. Love and family win in the end for all.
