Fated
Athena Rose

To make an uncomfortable situation worse, Pearl meets a tall, handsome, and rugged man named Barrett who makes it clear that the oil men aren't welcome 'round these parts. As rude as the stranger was, Pearl can't help but feel he's not like most men ...
Shortly after meeting Barrett, Pearl gets chased through the woods by a giant brown bear and nearly drowns in the rapids. She wakes up next to Barrett -- in his bed -- with no idea how she got there. She didn't sleep with him ... right?
Bear shifter Barrett Reinhart is the last remaining guardian of the Alaskan wilderness. He took a sacred vow: to protect the wilderness from any threat, at any cost. But Barrett is also desperate to find his fated mate -- the only woman who can pass on his lineage.
Oil men hoping to exploit the land for easy money are nothing new to this warrior. But there's something about Pearl that sets her apart ... enough that Barrett makes a dangerous trip into town to take a closer look. She certainly arrived with the enemy, but is she? Or could she be ... the one? And is her life really in danger?
