About this listen

When pastry chef Annabeth Jones goes on the run from her abusive fiance, the small town of Bearpaw Ridge offers her a safe haven. Nestled at the foot of the Rocky Mountains, with friendly neighbors and a bakery/cafe that needs a new owner, it's the perfect place for her to start over.

Firefighter and bear shifter Dane Swanson knows at once that kind, curvy Annabeth is his fated mate. She's also human, in a world where shifters must keep their existence secret. Annabeth has no idea that Bearpaw Ridge's population is more shifter than human...but if they're to be mated, Dane will have to find a way to tell her everything.

Wary of new relationships, Annabeth can't help warming to the strong, handsome man who can't get enough of her cinnamon rolls...or her. But her fragile hopes are shattered when her ex tracks her down, determined to reclaim her.

Dane is equally determined to protect his mate - but will Annabeth still accept him when he reveals the other side of his nature?

A great book and bear firefigthers to boot - yum!

I enjoyed this book very much. The characters are strong, and the male characters are sensitive. Except the whining idiot I want to beat with his own arm - Roger! Him we can beat silly, please.
Annabeth can make the best sweets and cakes. Dane is a volunteer firefigther and a runs a ranch. (He is a hot bear shifter as well.)
Dane's bear basically told him that Annabeth is their mate, as usual the human part doesn't believe it as easily as the animal.
As Annabeth's business are growing, the feelings between Anabeth and Dane grows as well. But Dane has yet to let her know that he and his family are a lttle bit different than other people - as well as most of the town.
But there has to be someone that need to be the rain clouds on a sunny day. And her past came back and it made me so made that I wanted to smack Roger to bits.
I like that the author is not afraid to address tough issues like emotional abuse as well as what difficulties first responders face. It is bringing real world issues into her fictional world.
I enjoyed this book and can't wait for the next book!

This story is like a good box of donuts!

Annabeth and Dane are the first couple that we get to know in the Bearpaw Ridge Series. Annabeth is a sweet and generous woman who is trying to start a new life away from an ex who won't take no for an answer. Dane is a big, protective bear shifter who manages the family ranch. He instantly falls for Annabeth but she is human and he is a shifter.

This book is full of laughter, love, and some amazing moments that you don't want to forget! Ophelia Sexton captures our attention with this awesome story!

OK book

This is light reading. The disappointment is that most of the plot twists were telegraphed. Also, in short book, there was a lot of sex. I’m not saying don’t have sex, I am saying think out carefully what you want to say and don’t have it be such a large part of the book.

Amazing...

There is definitely excitement, action, deception, drama, and intrigue throughout this marvelous story. I love this entire series, and read the stories using the Kindle Unlimited App, hearing the story on Audible definitely brings it to life!

loved it

Really good story and narration. Dane is a true super hero. I liked how the story shined a light on mental abuse and how it can escalate badly.
I loved the HEA too super cute

Being in the Heat

I really like this series. Very excited to see it available on audio.
Annabeth is engaged to a horrible man. When she leaves San Francisco and moves to Bearpaw Ridge, her life changes. She meets Dane.
This is a good listen. I would have preferred a dual narration, but all-in-all, it's a good listen and a great series.

I received a credit for an honest review.
