Michael Long is damaged. Broken. Dangerous. And the scars run deep. The only time his bear emerges is to viciously maim and kill.

The kindergarten teacher may be as sweet as her name implies, but Daisy won’t take no for an answer.

Michael Long is the hottest man she’s ever seen. *BOOKS IN THIS SERIES INCLUDE:* Rancher ...

Tucker Sterling struggles with a restless, unsettled bear that he is unable to tame. Nothing soothes his bear, not the six years he spent in the army’s Delta Force unit, not the multitude of nameless, faceless, women who share his bed, nothing—until Liv Harris returns to Port Ursa....
