Unbearable Attraction

Luka Ashe was perfectly content being Hollow Oak’s resident grizzly grouch.

He had a quiet workshop, a collection of haunted woodworking commissions, and zero interest in mating, dating, or feeling anything deeper than oak grain. Until a necromancer with too much eyeliner and a snark problem summoned half the spirit world—and his inner bear got very interested in sharing territory.

Leenah Carrow talks to ghosts, rolls her eyes at supernatural politics, and doesn’t do “help.” But when a spiritual uprising starts brewing, she somehow ends up soul-bonded to the town’s most emotionally constipated shifter.

Now the two of them are knee-deep in ancestral curses, magical prenups, aggressive dead people, and one sacred grove that definitely isn’t zoning-code compliant.

There’s also kissing. And spiritual warfare. And a bear who keeps carving her name into things.

They’re saving the town.

Probably.

He thinks she’s his fated mate. She thinks he needs therapy and maybe a rabies shot.

Read on for grumpy-sunshine tension, sacred mate marks, ghost tour chaos, and a bear shifter who builds furniture like foreplay. HEA Guaranteed!
