Angol
Jasmine Byers has spent her whole life searching for one thing: a place where she truly belongs.
Growing up in foster care taught her that stability is fragile, love is temporary, and promises don't always last.
So when she takes a scenic detour on the way to visit her long-distance boyfriend in Seattle, she thinks she's finally moving toward the future she planned. Instead, her car breaks down in the middle of the wilderness.
No signal.
No help.
And something massive moving in the forest.
When the quiet, rugged stranger who rescues her offers to take her to his nearby town, Jasmine knows she should keep her distance. But Dale Brooks is kind. Protective. Steady in a way she's never experienced before.
And the small mountain town he calls home feels dangerously close to everything she's ever wanted.
There's just one problem: Jasmine already belongs to someone else... doesn't she?
***
The moment Dale catches Jasmine's scent in the forest, his bear knows the truth: she's his mate.
After years of waiting for the woman destined for him, fate has finally delivered her right to his doorstep-lost, vulnerable, and only staying until her car is repaired.
Three days, max.
That's all the time he has before she leaves his town... and possibly his life.
But Jasmine's heart is tied to another man, and Dale refuses to claim what isn't freely given. Instead, he shows her the life she could have: a cabin built for family, a community that looks after its own, and a future where she'll never be alone again.
Yet bringing a human into their hidden shifter refuge could risk everything his clan has built.
And when danger suddenly finds Jasmine, Dale will have no choice but to reveal the powerful secret he's been hiding.
The truth about the bear inside him.
And just how far he'll go to protect his mate...
