The Bear's Chosen Mate
(2026)(The second book in the Bear Creek Forever:Thornberg Restaurant series)
A novel by Harmony Raines
She came to Bear Creek to help her best friend.
She didn’t expect to fall for her best friend’s boss…
Or discover he’s a bear shifter.
Tessa has come to Bear Creek to heal. When her best friend Rachel twists her ankle, Tessa steps in to cover a few shifts at Thornberg Restaurant—just until Rachel’s back on her feet. Simple. Sensible. Temporary.
Just until she meets Matt Thornberg.
He’s calm, capable, broad-shouldered…and watching Tessa like he’s been waiting his whole life for her. Which, as it turns out, he has. Because in Bear Creek, fate doesn’t whisper.
It roars.
Matt knows Tessa is his mate the moment she walks through the door. But winning her heart comes first…even if every instinct in his bear is ready to claim her. Between busy shifts, stolen glances, a fairy-house building project with two adorable little girls, and one wildly romantic dinner at his cabin, Tessa starts to wonder if ‘temporary’ is just another word for ‘running scared.’
But when a dream job threatens to pull her away, Tessa has to make a choice:
Play it safe…
Or take a chance on the home—and the mate—she never saw coming.
A cozy small-town, fated mates bear shifter romance filled with found family, protective hero energy, single-mom best friend vibes, workplace proximity, and a happily-ever-after.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
