Guarded By the Grizzly Bear by Reece Barden

LISA
I had the best night of my life with a stranger.
That was, until I found out he was from the notorious Lennox family.
I told myself I made the right call, that I dodged a bullet, and that the feelings I got every time I saw Beau Lennox around town were irritation, not regret.
Now we’re investigating the same case, a missing woman, and he’s determined to keep me on the outside.
But I’m the one with the badge.
And no matter how hard he tries, no matter what happens between us, Beau won’t be able to stop me bringing her home.

BEAU
She accused me of running a con and treated me like a criminal because of my last name.
I should be over it, over her.
But as soon as she’s near, fighting me at every turn, I’m battling urges I don’t understand and can barely control.
Now she’s inserting herself into my investigation, demanding answers and taking risks.
Too stubborn to back down, she’s getting too close to dangerous people who won’t hesitate to hurt her and a secret she was never meant to find out.
She thinks I’m being territorial about the case, but that’s not the thing I want to keep all to myself.
After one night trapped together on a case, my bear has decided she’s his.
But once she discovers what I am, she might decide she was right all along and run.
