An Alpha Bear For Lucian (Bruin Ridge Bear-Ginnings #1)


Lorelei M. Hart - 2022
    Alpha bear shifter Aspen was ready to begin his new life in the big city. He has a job lined up, a lease signed, and his truck packed. All he has left is to get there. Too bad that’s easier said than done because his truck picked the middle of nowhere to break down—alongside a bear den’s land of all places. When Aspen seeks permission to spend the night, he plans to keep his head down and just mind his own business and he does, until he hears the scream that changes everything. Omega bear shifter Lucian hated his den. No, that wasn’t fair. It wasn’t the den he hated as much as it was the leadership. When the Alpha he had most of his life died, he crossed his fingers the new one would bring their den into this century. He didn’t—the alpha was not only old-school, but also cruel. When rumors of an alpha bear seeking refuge until his truck is repaired reach him, Lucien forms a plan. If he can convince the shifter to take him when he leaves, he can escape this horrible life. Sneaking out to find the new bear sounded like a great idea, until Lucian gets caught. His den Alpha is a strike first kind of guy, and strike he does. Lucien knows better than to scream, it only makes the punishments worse, but scream he does, the pain too much to hold inside. A flurry of fur, teeth, a dead Alpha, and the scenting of his fated mate leaves the visiting shifter as their new Alpha. So much for best laid plans. An Alpha Bear for Lucian is first book in the anticipated Bruin Ridge Bear-ginning series, a sweet with knotty heat M/M Mpreg Shifter Romance by the popular writing team of Colbie Dunbar and Lorelei M. Hart. It features an alpha bear thrown into a role he is woefully unprepared for, an omega whose plans for the future very much did not include being his den’s Alpha Omega, a pack on the verge of collapse, the challenge that changes everything, true love, fated mates, and of course an adorable baby.

The Wolf King Needs an Heir


Max Rose - 2021
    A prophecy he doesn't entirely believe has forced his hand. Either he marries a werewolf from the Silvius bloodline and produces an heir, or his kingdom is finished. Edric rules the most powerful wolf kingdom in the U.S., and he's not about to watch everything he's built fall to pieces. But he faces big problems. First, the Silvius royal family was completely wiped out in his grandfather's era. Second, he's gay. That complicates things when it comes to the nitty-gritty of making an heir. Fortunately, an eccentric old wolf seer has found a solution: a male omega wolf named Julian Wilson—the offspring of a werewolf and a human—who can have a child. The omega is illegitimate, born on the wrong side of the sheets, and grew up around humans, but he has Silvius blood in his veins. Edric knows his duty. He must mate this omega and produce his heir to stop the prophecy…and then he'll decide whether to keep the omega or exile him back to the human world. But Julian is like no wolf he's ever met—not only hauntingly beautiful but unassuming, genuine…and kind. The omega is dangerous, but he's only a threat to Edric's rigid way of seeing the world...and to his heart.Julian Wilson feels like a nobody. He works the drive-thru window at a fast-food joint, struggling to pay for night classes at the community college. So when a limo rolls up and he's offered money to meet with a king, he's sure it's a scam or a joke. Then he loses his job. Desperate, he agrees to meet King Edric...and immediately regrets it. The alpha wolf is so handsome and sexy that Julian has to stop himself from drooling over a man who could star in his fantasies. When the king asks for Julian's hand in marriage to avoid a ruinous prophecy, he nearly falls over. Julian doesn't believe in prophecy, and this might turn out to be a loveless arranged marriage, but he's at the end of his rope. At least sex with Edric will be hot, Julian will live in a palace, and he can do more good in the world as mate to a king than he ever could alone. Julian knows his duty. He must give this king his heir, doing his best to protect the child he carries inside. Soon Julian is pregnant and discovers far more depth and passion to his mate than he first realized, even if the alpha doesn't like humans. Edric would be an easy man to fall in love with... But there are wolves within the royal court seeking to end the union of a king and a tainted-blood omega and will stop at nothing to rip their love apart.Reader note: contains M/M Mpreg, wolf shifters, hot romance elements, and male male love
