The Bear's Mate - E-book - ePub

This story was first published by Evernight Publishing in 2014. It's been reformatted and edited. Aidan Renner's been keeping a secret for twenty-five years. Since his father died, it's been his job to keep the shifters safe but when his brother needs urgent attention due to a stab wound, he takes him to a free clinic where previously the doctor hasn't asked any questions. However, there's a new doctor in town, she's female-and drop dead gorgeous.
When she insists on taking his brother's blood as a precautionary measure, Aidan knows he has to get it back before it's tested and the truth about them comes to light. When he breaks into the clinic in hopes of locating it, and finds it not there, there's only one course of action. Take Charlotte out for a meal and ask her which lab she sent it to. Charlotte doesn't know if it's because she's been alone for over a year or if Aidan is as perfect as he seems, but she's got the feeling that he could be a keeper.
Can Aidan continue to keep the shifters' secret under wraps? And when he senses himself falling for Charlotte, can there be a future for a bear shifter and a human? Or is their relationship doomed from the beginning and could it put the shifter group in danger?
