One stubborn woman. One irresistible bear shifter. One quiet street about to explode with passion. ★★★★★


Belleview is a peaceful suburban neighborhood-until shifters become legal... and one moves in next door.

Alice Barnes prides herself on control. As chair of the residents' committee, she's determined to keep Belleview normal. Shifters may be accepted by society, but Alice wants nothing to do with them-especially not the dangerously attractive one who just bought the house beside hers.

Max Mikkelsen is everything Alice despises... and everything her body secretly craves. A rugged woodworker with bear blood in his veins, Max is big, bold, and unapologetically dominant. The neighborhood gossips, the women swoon-but Max has eyes for only one woman: the uptight neighbor who wants him gone.

As tensions rise and sparks fly, Alice finds her carefully ordered world unraveling. The more she fights Max, the harder it becomes to resist his strength, his confidence, and the animal desire he awakens inside her.

Can Alice force Max out of Belleview before she loses control completely? Or will this alpha bear shifter claim the woman who was never meant to be his... but belongs to him all the same?
