Pop Quiz: You're a woman alone in the forest... would you rather run into a man or a bear?


I'm lost out in the woods when I cross paths with a strange man. He offers to take me back to his campsite, feed me, get me warm, but every instinct in me screams NO!

He is an opportunistic predator, and I am his prey.

I run. He chases. And just before I'm traumatized for life, I hear a loud roar as a seven hundred pound Grizzly bear rips the man off me and mauls him to death.

So.... Team Bear?

If only it were so simple. This isn't just any normal bear. He's a bear shifter, and he's convinced I'm his fated mate.

I appreciate the life saving and all, but I have goals and dreams, and I won't allow fate to play matchmaker for me, no matter how otherwise appealing the shifter in question may be.
