A Second Chance at Bear Creek Lodge #2
The Bear's Forbidden Love
A mom and her young daughter on the run. A bear shifter with a protective streak.
A forbidden love that threatens to keep them apart.
When Kay checks in at Bear Creek Lodge, Curtis instantly recognizes her as his mate. There’s just one problem. Kay is already married.
The wedding ring on her finger means he can’t declare his love for her, or even tell her they are mates. Not when she has a young daughter. Curtis might be many things, but he is not a homewrecker.
However, things are not as they seem and as he learns more about Kay, he realizes that instead of wrecking her life, he is destined to save it.
Kay is in trouble. She’s on the run and doesn’t know who to trust.
Then she meets Curtis. He doesn’t deserve to get caught up in her messy life. Not when getting involved will put him in danger.
But she soon realizes there’s no stopping the grumpy-looking bear shifter when he tells her – you’re mine!

Another shifter book in my shifter spree, haha.
I think out of all of my recent shifter book reads, this one was my favorite.
In this book, we meet Curtis and Kay. Both characters have their own issues of course. I would have loved to see more character development, but the author did a great job and building their dynamic and relationship. The world development was good as well.
There's some fun spice, but nothing too... graphic i guess. Not a LOT of spicy scenes either.
I'd say this was definitely an insta-love, which i find happens in most shifter romances.
Kay is a single mom who is in trouble with a terrible "husband." Curtis becomes her hero.
Overal, I'd definitely read other books in this series. It was a good book.

Can Kay find everything she ever hoped for at Bear Creek Lodge?
Curtis was running from his past when he arrived at Bear Creek Lodge, but there he found the man he was supposed to be, the family he should have had and a happiness he never knew was possible. All he is missing is his mate...
So it seems fitting that when his mate finally turns up at Bear Creek Lodge she is also running! Curtis is determined to help Kay find happiness and secure her safety. He can only hope that the future she is fighting for is a future that includes him, that she craves him as much as he craves her, he breathes easier with her close and whilst Adele may not be his child by blood, she is the child of his heart. Curtis may be quiet but he is still a hero that will sweep you off your feet and steal your heart.
A great read on Kindle Unlimited.

This is an OK shifter romance, with a likable couple -- but it was too short to have as much character development as I like. I wanted a little more backstory on both Curtis and Kay, but especially on Kay.
The couple does fall in instalove, which is typical for shifter romances. There are sex scenes, but they are not overly explicit.
I did think that Kay would have had a harder time accepting the whole shifter and fated mates thing. She wasn't a shifter, and was terrified of her terrible husband -- so I think she would have had a harder time believing that Curtis could be trusted.
One thing bothered me about the cover of this book -- but it was minor, and did not affect my rating. The man on the cover of this book has a terrible expression on his face, almost as if he is mad at the world. He actually looks kind of mean and dangerous. Curtis was described as having "one of those faces", because he always looked grumpy, but that picture kind of set me up to not like Curtis. Couldn't they have at least had the actor smile a little for the book cover? This may not be the author's fault, but it still bugs me.
One problem I have with all of this author's series is that there is so long between books. Lots of times I have to go back and reread some of the earlier books in a series, simply because it has been so long that I don't remember all the characters. That is frustrating. I know that this author writes lots of books -- but I wish she would concentrate on one series at a time, so that the books could be published closer together.
My rating system is below.
1 star -- Hated it, or did not finish. I usually only give this rating if some of the content is truly objectionable to me, like if one of the main characters does something really awful, and gets away with it.
2 stars -- Didn't like it. This rating usually means that I thought the writing wasn't very good, the editing was terrible, I didn't like the characters, or it had other major flaws.
3 stars -- I liked it, but had some minor issues with it. This rating means that there were minor editing issues, the story needed more character development, it was just too unrealistic, or had some other fairly minor issue. The majority of books I read get this rating – I do not consider it a bad rating.
4 stars -- I liked it a lot. This is a high rating for me, and I rarely give a higher one.
5 stars -- I loved it, and will probably read it again. Very few books are good enough to get this rating from me. The ones that do are usually classics.

The Bear’s Forbidden Love continues the A Second Chance at Bear Creek Lodge series with a romance that is full of questions as Kay and Curtis first meet. She’s on the run from a man who would take everything from her – including her life. He’s rebuilt his life and now to finally find his mate – and she’s wearing another man’s ring. Two truly wounded souls, each searching for or finally finding an escape from their pasts will meet in this small shifter town where anything is possible… eventually.
I enjoyed Curtis and Kay’s romance. And absolutely adored little Adele, talk about stealing scenes and hearts easily. The Bear’s Forbidden Love is full of intrigue and steamy moments, dealing with the past and trying to find a safe future, accepting love from the right person for all the right reasons. Trust is such a fragile thing, watching Curtis slowly gain Kay’s trust was an emotional journey. He’s an honorable man, but his mate is in trouble and there is no way he can walk away from her or her precious daughter.
There are vile villains to loathe, a couple that belongs together, steamy moments, and one sweet little girl who loves one big grumpy bear. I love returning to this world and discovering more engaging stories set in this magical town. If you love a good story, a romance that keeps you guessing, and all the feelings you could ask for then The Bear’s Forbidden Love is just right for you.

Mate or not mate, that is the question
When Curtis first meets his mate Kay and her daughter, he is thrilled but worried about the wedding ring on her finger. He will not be a home-wrecker! But then he discovers that she is in trouble. That is all it takes to let him step up to help and hopefully claim his mate! Will he have what it takes to keep Kay and her daughter safe? He will do everything in his power to do just that.
The pace is fast and the tone is uncertain yet hopeful with a character and action oriented storyline that has some steamy scenes. The characters are vibrant and engaging. You do want to read this series in order, but to get the whole picture you will need to go farther back. The whole series starts with the Bear Creek and Bear Bluff box set, followed by Return to Bear Bluff box set, Return to Bear Creek with multiple box sets and then single titles. After that, there are a ton of additional Bear Creek series that can be read. If you have not experienced a book by Harmony Raines, then this is a good introduction, but prepare to want to read the back story afterwards! This is a complex intertwined world that can really draw you in. By my count, Bear Creek Lodge is the 11th, separate series based on and around Bear Creek and Bear Bluff. Enjoy!

**********Contains Spoilers**********
I thought this was another good addition to the Second Chance at Bear Creek Lodge Series. I enjoyed this book more than book one as there was more of a mystery to solve. I thought the connection between Curtis and Kay was amazing. The last thing Curtis expects when he meets his mate, is that she’s already married. He can tell something is off with about the husband and it doesn’t take Kay long to realise that she has a connection with Curtis, and that he’ll never hurt her or her daughter Adele. Kay is on the run from her ex-husband Tony, with one of his men/bodyguard Warren for their protection. When Warren shows his true colours by attempting to hurt Kay and Adele with the other men that he brought to the lodge. Curtis was there to help get them to safety, after Kay knocked Warren unconscious with a tree branch which he totally deserved. I loved seeing Kay and Adele getting the loving family that they always wanted, and that they have each others backs. I loved seeing Curtis have Kay’s back when she needed him the most, even though he didn’t want her in danger but he realised that she has to do this so that her and Adele can be safe and live a life being safe and full of love with Curtis. I’m looking forward to reading Darrell’s story next. I’d definitely recommend this book, series, universe and author to everyone.

show, don’t tell
Goodness I want to love these books! The stories are so very sweet and I’m all about a shifter love story.
But.
Ms Raines needs an editor.
There’s too much explication, too much bogging down in backstory. The choice of a third person narrator puts distance between the characters and the reader, and it makes the story’s flow awkward. Curtis and Kay can tell us their stories; we don’t need an external narrator.
Beyond that, there were plenty of places for their to be *action* in this story (she’s running from her shady husband for goodness sake! There’s an aborted hit that we get no details on! There are BEAR SHIFTERS!!) but the writing lacked any action. When working with young writers, one of the things I tell the. Is that stories are better when we show - not tell.
All Ms Raines does is tell. And tell. And tell.
It makes the story drag when it could be incredible. I’d really like to stay in Bear Creek but there are too many other books out there. I’ll be leaving the Lodge & Ms Raines behind in search of better-shown stories.

A bit disappointing
I was looking forward to Curtis’s story, but I was a bit disappointed. The story focused more on the mystery aspect of the story than the romance. Plus things went a bit too smooth after they got all the dirt on Tony. There was very little interaction between Curtis and Adele where we were spoiled with Henry and Quincy bonding in book 1. I found myself skipping because even the interaction between Kay and Curtis lacking. Also, I found it odd that Curtis’s mom got thrown into the story. I understand why to a point but it didn’t really flow since he didn’t really think or talk about her much (unless it’s a part I skimmed), not to mention she should look older. Kay momentarily worried it was his lover (gross). The only fun parts were Warren getting chased all night by a bear and some of the inner dialogue between Curtis and his bear.

Enjoyable if a bit slow and not quite believable.
Found it all silly that Kay was so soft and didn’t give Tony any grief over 4 million dollars’ worth of assets, after her tried to have her killed.
I can understand not wanting anything tainted like that but still, he set her up to be murdered and leave Adele without a mother.
Why was Curtis using his stepfather’s name. He has his real father’s name. It was also unclear if stepfather was a drug kingpin, a mafioso or a two-bit hoodlum.
I expected more drama when they went to Tony's home to confront him.
The Curtis’s mother thing was weird too.
I do love the family doesn’t have to be blood ethos of this series though.

Lovely Storytelling
I did not like that the capital letter A was involved. It would have been a much better story if the couple had kept their integrity intact. I would have liked to have had more of the story of how Curtis's mother re-discovered and re-built her own integrity. I also wish Harmony Raines would mention the other erotic places to kiss besides the obvious 3, and stop using the word "impaled". Dracula's favorite form of execution sort of kills the steamy for me.

Family and love
Awesome storyline; mother and child running away from a bad husband only to meet her future. Drama, a plot and a few twist.
He has past to familiar with her past, but he is her fated mate and she will fight for him. Awesome read as a second chance way dramatic. Loved it!
Well written and easy to follow laughs and emotional ...sniff sniff.

A man, a woman, a little child. Looks over the shoulder. And a bear shifter. Not everything is as it seems and you are kept guessing as I read (devoured) the pages. I was kept guessing until the very end how HEA was going to happen. Beloved characters. Family by choice. Loved it and have already preordered the next book in the series.

Wow!
Loved this story about a second chance at happiness. When Kay married Tony, she thought she was getting what she wanted a living relationship, but what she really got was abusive relationship, so she on the run. Curtis has just met Kay & her daughter & knows that she is his mate but married to another man! This story is about how they help each other!

Love this author and an auto buy for me. This had a very good story line. I only gave it 4 stars as it needed some more editing. Examples; driving in a truck but would call it going in the car; several paragraphs together had the wrong names listed which was confusing.
I enjoyed the book except for these errors.

As usual Harmony Raines gives a great story from beginning to end. The characters are well thought out. I'm hoping that this part of the Bear Creek series lasts more than 3 or 4 books.

Intrigue!
From the start there's I tongue when it comes to Kay (and Warren) and it's a fun ride for Curtis and his friends to figure it all out in the name of claiming Curtyis' fated mate.

The Bear's Forbidden Love
This was quite a convoluted tale of love, revenge, and justice. Kay is on the run with her young daughter when she encounters Curtis at the River Valley Lodge. With Curtis and friends on her side, she fights to gain her freedom from her estranged husband.

Curtis and Kay
Finding your mate and that she married stuns Curtis. Finding out her husband is trying to kill her brings put his protective streak for her and her daughter. Love the mystery of the story.
