Heartsridge Shifters: Nate
(2017)(The fifth book in the South-One Bears series)
A novel by Olivia Arran
The final book in the South-One Bears series…
Bear shifter Nate Dean is the joker of team South-One. The prankster. The one without a dozen skeletons hidden in his closet. He is what he is, and that’s always been good enough, until now. Now he needs to be more. To step up and be the person his fated mate needs him to be. He knows he can be the man to heal Heather's heart, to show her exactly how a woman should be treated and introduce her to a life filled with laughter.
She needed time. Space.
But he's willing to wait forever, if that's what it takes for her to realize he's not going anywhere, that he'd never, ever hurt her. That they're meant to be together.
Heather Hastings is adjusting to life as a widow. A part of her feels guilty for not grieving her husband’s death, but after everything Toby put her through—the years of abuse, not to mention the endless lies—she can’t bring herself to miss him. In reality, the only thing thing she owes him is a huge thank you for bringing her to Heartsridge, somewhere she’d like to call home. She has real friends for the first time, her son is happy, and there’s a certain man who makes her toes curl and laughter break free from the void inside her chest.
It's second chance at life. A chance to make her own decisions and carve a place in the world. Though she's only ever known the dark side of a man’s love before, Nate is a man carved from honor and integrity. His large, muscular body and sinful eyes have all kinds of naughty thoughts popping into her head, often at completely inappropriate times. If she can find a way to let go, take another chance on love, she could have the life she’s always dreamed of. But is she willing to risk her heart again?
When a friend is put in jeopardy and harsh truths are uncovered, the real danger to the town is finally revealed. Heather has some tough decisions to make and Nate has to come to terms with reality: he can’t protect his mate from everything ... though he’s willing to risk everything and try.
** You need to have read the previous books in the series to enjoy this story. The author highly recommends that the whole series be read in order due to the continuing storyline. Each full length novel features a different couple and their happy ever after. Also included: naughty language, fully realized love scenes, and big, burly bear shifters who only have eyes for their fated mates. **

Heartsridge Shifters
It’s a new world. Shifters are no longer a secret and they’re ready to fight for their right to live free.
Everything is different.
Six years ago, the Registration Act forced shifters out into the open and the world changed. Towns were created to provide a safe haven for those shifters who chose to follow the law, and those who didn’t were declared rogue.
Heartsridge is one of the few shifter towns in existence, guarded and protected by special teams of bears and wolves. Their job: to protect the right for shifters to live and love, and for the space to run free as nature intended. Because not all humans found the truth easy to accept—that they’re no longer the dominant species. Tourism keeps the town thriving, humans able to visit and stay for a week, but then they have to leave.
It’s the law.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
