Adam

By Becca Fanning

Maya just wasn't in the mood for a wedding. Yeah, her best friend in college had pulled out all the stops for it at this paradise destination. A remote tropical island and a plethora of hopefully available men with hungry eyes: it's enough to make a girl forget her troubles for a week. But there was something nagging at the back of her head, something just didn't seem right.
Adam was always a bit distant from his family, so when he got the invitation to his cousin's destination wedding on a tropical island, he didn't know what to think. Tons of questions swirled in his head, but he shoved them all aside for the time being. Nothing would be gained from trying to decipher his cousin's intentions, and was he really in a position to look a gift vacation in the mouth? Even a Bear Shifter could appreciate a little splash in the water every now and then...
After all, what could possibly go wrong?
This 11,000+ word BBW Bear Shifter Romance Novella has all the heat and passion you expect from a Fated Mates story!

Chapter 1

If she was being honest with herself, Maya wasn't even sure why she was invited in the first place. Glancing around the crowded room, she sighed, and reached for a glass of champagne; she would need it to get through the rest of the night .

At every wedding she'd been to, there'd been at least one guest who no one knew. She just never thought it would be her. As soon as the email had pinged into her inbox, she'd had a bad feeling in the pit of her stomach, but she knew she couldn't turn the opportunity down. After all, Dina and her had basically grown up together, well, if you considered growing up those formative years between the start and end of college, which Maya did. They'd lived together for four whole years, before Dina had moved in with her soon to be husband. And now, Maya was here, with a sunset-hued bridesmaids dress in her closet, tossing back champagne, and staring across at her college roommate and her husband-to-be.

Maya was pretty far from a wallflower most of the time, but right now all she wanted to do was finish out the last of this reception, get to bed, and catch her flight home the next day. Because, of course, Dina couldn't resist taking off to some remote tropical island to hold her wedding. Christ, if Maya had known about that, she probably would have found some way to wriggle out of it, Dina might be all grown up and done with her student loans, but Maya certainly wasn't. Hell, that wasn't the only way Maya was pretty far from being an adult. She was still living in the same rent-controlled apartment in the centre of town she had for almost nine years, she was still single, she was still avoiding calls from her mother. Part of her felt like she should have grown up by now, but, as she kept on reminding herself, she was only twenty-eight. She had plenty of time to figure things out, even if watching the girl she used to do tequila slammers with seven years ago with her fiance was freaking the hell out of her. Maya tried to keep her face nonchalant as she watched Dina show off her ring to some member of the family Maya didn't recognize. All of a sudden, it became far too real, Maya stood up, and headed towards the catering table, trying her best to look nonchalant.

She spotted an open but untouched bottle of champagne sitting on the edge of the clothed table, judging by the
