Bearing Secrets

With her college graduations a recent memory, Nora Miles has some decisions to make. Her mother has secured her a place back home, but that means leaving her beloved Alaska for the doldrums of an office job. Not something Nora really wants, but finding gainful employment in the US's most northern territory has proven tough. With time running out, Nora decides to take one last foray into the wilderness she's come to love. Maybe the fresh air will help clear her head and help her think of a solution to her problem. But the wilds of Alaska aren't a forgiving place.

When a close encounter with a mountain lion leaves Nora fighting for her life, she finds her only hope lies with her rescuer: a bear that shape shifts into one of her classmates.

Dean McGuire didn't think when he heard the lion attacking the young woman, he acted, but now he's got a serious problem. Not only does Nora know what he is, she knows who he is. Either piece of information alone wouldn't be an issue, but both together could mean disaster for his people. There are rules for situations like this, but killing an innocent woman after saving her from death seems harsh and he doesn't know anything about romance. Decisions have to be made and there isn't a lot of time to make them.

Can they come to terms? Or will this chance encounter cost her everything?
