Beauty's Bossy Bear

Welcome to Fable Forest, a mystical community where a magical spell has destined its inhabitants to live out narratives straight from the pages of classic fairy tales. Amid this captivating realm of myth and magic, Kodi, a powerful bear shifter, runs Enchanted Security, Inc., the premier agency tasked with safeguarding the forest and its unusual residents.

When Kodi is hired to protect Briella, a newcomer with no knowledge of the forest’s magical power, his life is turned upside down. The vibrant and alluring female is under threat from a mysterious stalker intent on claiming the gorgeous librarian for himself.
One look and Kodi realizes there’s a connection between them that goes beyond mere protector and protectee––Briella is his fated mate. This revelation not only heightens the stakes but also ignites a torrent of emotions in Kodi, making him more determined to thwart the danger lurking in the shadows.
Between keeping his headstrong mate out of trouble and battling the forces that threaten to tear them apart, Kodi must summon both the strength of the bear within and the tenderness of the man he is, to protect the woman destined to be by his side. Forever.
