The Grisly Grizzlies: Box Set: The Complete Series
Kim Fox - 2018
You would run too if you were forced to be married to the cruel mob boss, Luca Capuano. There are enemies all around her, so she escapes to the one place where she knows she’ll be safe: the small town of Redemption Creek, Montana. Grizzly bear shifter, Lachlan, is busy drinking himself into a coma when his old flame shows up in a wedding dress. There’s nothing he would like more than to marry the girl he’s been thinking of for years, but his crazy bear can’t be trusted around nice delicate things like Jessie. Lachlan desperately wants to protect Jessie from the men hunting her down, but who is going to protect her from the vicious animal he has lurking inside? Is Jessie running from one monster to another? The Grisly Grizzlies: Caleb The new lifeguard in town has a body that is making Caleb want to dive right in, and although he is definitely trying, he’s swimming in circles and getting nowhere. This hot bear shifter has never met a girl he can’t have until now. Abigail is too preoccupied to focus on dating. She’s new in town and busy hiding her younger brother who has a pesky habit of turning into a wild uncontrollable lion. As interesting as the hot muscular guy who keeps hitting on her may be, she can’t get into a relationship and risk exposing her brother’s secret. But when Abigail’s brother gets her evicted from their home, they have only one place they can go, and they’ll all have to find out if lions can play nice with grizzly bears. The Grisly Grizzlies: Kneecap Wild. Ferocious. Untamed. Vicious. And that’s just Kneecap in his human form. His savage grizzly bear on the other hand… watch out! Nothing and no one has been able to tame this half barbarian/half shifter in thirty years, but there’s a glimmer of hope when a curvy girl named Nora walks onto the ranch. Nora Marchesi has come to Montana to find her sister. What she didn’t come to find was a naked caveman stalking her through the forest, but that’s exactly what she gets. He has long hair to his shoulders, a long beard to his chest, and a long (you-know-what) to his knees. And for some reason, he seems to have a big crush on her. Redemption Creek’s most savage grizzly bear is in a constant battle with his human companion Kneecap. Will they be able to work together to charm the pretty girl who is running away from them screaming? And when old enemies come to visit, will Kneecap’s new civilized manner be enough to stop them? The Grisly Grizzlies: Tito & Ronin Tito and Ronin have always known they were destined to share a mate. Nothing is stronger than a bond between twin bear shifters. Well, except maybe a hot curvy veterinarian named Zoe. While in a two-year-long cold streak, Zoe gets propositioned by two gorgeous bear shifters. They may be into sharing, but Zoe is a one-man kind of woman and she’s not about to change that no matter how good looking these guys are. When they’re forced to go on separate dates, Tito and Ronin wage an epic battle full of sabotage and shenanigans in order to be the one that Zoe chooses. But after both dates go disastrously wrong, will Zoe even want either of them? And if she does, are Tito and Ronin prepared to give up on their destiny of a shared mate? The Grisly Grizzlies: Maximus Kennedy vowed never to return to Redemption Creek...
