The first two romances in the Furever Shifters series! Best friends Georgette Stephens and Becky Conway meet the bears of their dreams. Georgette Stephens can't forget the sexy stranger she stumbled on during a mountain hike. Shaken to the core by his mesmerizing gaze, she escaped without learning his name. When he shows up at the company where she works, she is forced to admit the deep and decidedly unprofessional connection she feels toward him. But she's been hurt before by trusting too easily. Bancroft "Bear" Bruin, the chief of the Northern California bear shifters, is jubilant that his mate has finally walked into his life. He didn't expect her to be human, but he won't let that stand in his way. She's his mate, and he will have her - no matter how hard he has to work to gain her trust. Shifter Rory Marsden is having enough trouble dealing with his newly awakened bear. The last thing he needs is a new mate too, no matter how gorgeous she is or how much his bear whines that she's The One. Although wildlife biologist Becky Conway isn't looking for a love interest, she can't get the intense blue eyes of Rory Marsden out of her thoughts. It's just as well he's made it very clear he's not interested. But damn, her body says they belong together, no matter what either of their minds say. When Becky's discovery of strange animal tracks thrusts her into danger, Rory is compelled to come to her rescue - even though her discovery threatens Rory's newfound shifter clan.
