Heโs got the perfect mate in mind, for five years from now...
The final title in a light-hearted shifter trilogy by New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend.
Cooper Borealis is fully onboard with the concept of fated mates. Except mating the woman he wantsโhis tempting, complicated, human secretaryโis not an option. Or not yet anyway. So heโll use a loophole to keep the vow he made to his brothers, mating fever be damned. Heโll be with Amber Myawayan at the place and time of his choosing.
Amber has spent the past two years in the north looking for her missing brotherโand falling in love with the big, growly polar bear at the helm of Borealis Gems. More than once, sheโs caught him looking at her with hungry shifter eyes. But getting him to admit it? Ha! Luckily, mating fever is a thing, and sheโs happy to get involved as nature forces the issue to the forefront.
But when their mating bond is unexpectedly blocked, Amber and Cooper find themselves in a race against time. She needs to track down her brother while somehow proving sheโs tough enough to be with her favourite bear. Cooper plans to protect her at all costs, even if it means secretly stifling his stubborn shifter side.
Somewhere in the wilderness theyโll find the answer...or lose their chance at forever.
