Claimed by the Guardian Bear (Night Shift: Bears of Valor 2 #4)
Ciera Knox
I didn't become a cop to chase fairy tales. But the reports of "paramilitary activity" in the mountains lead me straight to a roadblock manned by the most infuriating, impossibly large mountain man I've ever interrogated. Vance is hiding something—my instincts scream suspect, but my body screams something else entirely. When my own department turns against me and the truth in the mountains turns out to be wilder than any fairy tale, the only person I can trust is the man I should be arresting.
Vance
I'm the muscle. That's it. I break things, I guard things, I don't do complicated. Then a five-foot-seven cop with a badge and a death wish drives straight into my patrol zone, demanding answers I can't give without exposing my entire clan. She's smart, she's relentless, and she smells like mate. Protecting her from the Syndicate is instinct. Protecting my heart from her? That's the fight I'm losing.
Can a woman who lives by the law trust a man who makes his own rules?
Join Tara and Vance in this steamy short story where the law meets danger in the wilderness for the Bears of Valor!
