Mending The Bear

By Vanessa Devereaux

This book was first published by Evernight Publishing in 2016

Ian Mallory thought he’d found his mate when he was young, but now she’s betrayed him in the worst possible way. There’s only one thing for a bear to do and that’s get on his motorcycle and go on the rampage.

Eve Barclay’s the new vet in town. She loves her new home of Kalispell. Well, that is until a crazy guy wearing a biker jacket with a bear emblem goes flying by sending mud all over her new hairdo. If that’s not bad enough, she slips in the supermarket where he’s thrown salmon all over the floor.

Ian’s punishment...look after the lady vet. His reward...being seen with a new woman who might just make his mate jealous.

Eve’s reward...having a sexy guy watching out for her. Eve’s punishment...having a sexy guy around and vowing never to fall for one ever again.
