That’s where BBW Christiana comes in. Her job? To ensure that every woman who passes through the glistening Bear Buns doors leaves satisfied…but will Christiana be satisfied with just doing her job? They say to never trust a skinny chef, and Christiana’s all curves, but are they the curves that alpha males Chad and Barrett deserve? And will this trio get to mountin’? Will she get her just desserts? Christiana came to Bear Buns to do a job and she isn’t about to let her heart do something her head is telling her not to do. After all, she hasn’t earned a spot as the head chef of Bear Buns Denver by flirting her way through life, but, what’s a gal to do when she can’t get her own heart to shut up? Yes, Chad and Barrett are handsome, sexy, and abso-frikkin’-lutely into her.

Lick, lick, lick, until cream gets everywhere… Himalayan brown bears Chad and Barrett have known each other their whole lives. Best friends from childhood, it’s no surprise their mate marks have led these mountaineers to learn that they’re meant to share a fated mate. The only question is, what do their mate marks mean? And does it matter, when Chad and Barrett feel something for Christiana that they’ve never felt for anyone else? After defending their mate from a rogue shifter attack, this pair’s going to have to go all-out in order to prove to her that they’re serious about her, and that she’s the only gal that belongs in their hearts…and in their bed. But it’s not happily ever after just yet... Men that turn into bears that turn into strippers. BBWs that rock their curves, and their skills, at the strip club. True love that’s like something straight out of a Sable Sylvan fairy tale. Welcome to the world of Bear Buns Denver, where bears turn into men who turn into fated mates for curvy gals.

Alpha Theo (Six-Pack #2)
C.J. Primer - 2021
* This book is very different from book one- it's a slow burn, and it's a very bumpy ride. You've been warned! THEO: I'm next in line to be the alpha of my pack, but my father doesn't think I'm ready. In his eyes, I'll never be- he wants me to grow up, straighten up, to be someone I'm just... not. At least I've got the security squad in the meantime, and I'm taking on more responsibility by working with the squad's IT unit. I assumed working with a bunch of computer geeks would be boring as hell, but the new girl on the unit has me intrigued. I'm used to getting any girl I want, yet she's rebuffed all of my advances. She's a goody-goody, thinks she's too good for me- and hell, she probably is, but that won't stop me from trying to get in her pants. Underneath every good girl persona is a bad girl just dying to get out. Challenge accepted. BROOKE: All I wanted to do when I came to work for the IT unit at the security squad was keep my head down and do my job. I was doing it pretty well, too, until Theo got assigned as the liaison between the IT unit and squad leadership. I had a crush on him as a kid, but now that he's grown he's a foul-mouthed, womanizing hothead; a total alpha-hole. Other girls may fall for this good looks and his devil-may-care attitude, but I'm smarter than that. He's hanging around the IT unit to observe and report, but he's zeroed in on me for some reason; keeps trying to get under my skin. And just when I think I can escape him, fate delivers the cruelest twist yet. ~The Six-Pack Series is a collection of werewolf shifter romance novels.
