Destined Bear

I came back to save my mother-not to face the Alpha who broke my heart.

Five years ago, I walked away from Willow Grove territory and the devastatingly stubborn bear shifter who humiliated me in front of the entire pack. I thought I'd buried my feelings for Emeric, but desperate times call for desperate measures.

My mother is dying, and he's the only one powerful enough to help her.

Emeric claims he's changed, that he realizes he made a mistake letting me go. But I've heard his excuses before, and I'm not the naive girl who used to hang on his every word.

I'm here for my mom, nothing more.

Except someone doesn't want me back in Willow Grove. Mysterious threats are escalating, and pack members are whispering about conspiracies.

When danger forces Emeric and I together, the chemistry I've been fighting for years threatens to consume us both. Every heated glance, every accidental touch reminds me why I fell for him in the first place.

But I swore I'd never let him hurt me again. Some wounds run too deep to heal, and some Alphas never really change.

Or do they?
