About this book

When a pint-sized wolfdog with a sharp tongue keeps catching the attention of dangerous people, a massive polar bear decides it's his job to be her shadow—whether she likes it or not. Bo's been nursing a quiet obsession with Blayne for a decade, and now he's got the perfect excuse to stick around, even if she'd rather throw him off a cliff. Their banter crackles with electric tension as they're whisked away to a remote Maine town full of other equally wild shifters, and Blayne slowly discovers there's way more depth to the smug bear than his pretty face and smooth talk suggest. With patience, humor, and enough animal magnetism to set the pages on fire, this is a deliciously fun, slow-burn romance about two people who are absolutely perfect together—they just don't know it yet.

“Create a playlist called Beast Behaving Badly. Witty banter meets simmering tension with indie rock edge and sultry R&B undertones. Think Arctic Monkeys meets SZA—playful yet charged, with enough swagger and sass to match relentless teasing and forced proximity. Add moody alt-pop for those quiet moments of realization. Steamy but fun.”
