Blurb: Papa Bear was president of the Blue Angels, one of the deadliest biker clubs west of the Mississippi. He answered to no one, going where he wanted when he wanted. When being on the road so much takes its toll on him, Papa Bear heads to the woods to let his bear roam free. Finding a man beaten and covered in blood was never part of that plan but turning his back on the wounded man just wasn’t possible, especially since he suspects the little wolf might be his mate.
Bartholomew ‘Bug’ Matthews was on the run. Finding himself rescued by a burly tattooed biker was not where he expected to be but he wasn’t complaining. Papa Bear was the sexiest man Bug had ever seen. When the handsome man claims him, Bug couldn’t be happier. But his joy is short lived when Papa Bear disappears, leaving Bug alone and in more danger than ever.
When a vicious attack leaves Papa Bear with no memory of his mate, will he lose his one chance to find happiness or will Bug be able to protect himself and the secret he holds?

Review: This book was previously published at 20,000 words as part of Siren’s anthology Ride a Cowboy. It has been extensively revised and expanded an additional 16,000 plus words.
When I saw this and started reading this, I knew I had read it before. I hate to admit that I was thinking of a different author when I read it. Then I remembered why, the character Papa Bear is actually from Bear County series written by Lynn Hagen. Then I remembered the anthology that was written. Stormy has been one of my top favorite from the start of her series. Her characters are fully developed and a bit quirky. They are easy to fall in love with and always leave you wanting more.
Papa Bear is exactly that a bear shifter. He is the leader of a deadly and dangerous biker gang. Unlike real bears they have no desire to hibernate in the winter, but travel around. That is until he goes off on his own, and finds his mate. A mate that is in danger.
Bug is from a pack that is against many changes, and one of them is gay men. His father wanted to mate him to a female alpha and damn if the man won’t take no for an answer. Bug knew he had to leave now. Too bad his pack caught up with him and it left him bleeding. Now his mate has found him, rescued him and deserted him. Things are not what one would think.
It is a very enjoyable story, and a lot of fun to read. I have to admit that it is a bit smaller than I had expected and the story is just a bit off. However it doesn’t take away from the story itself. I can see reading it more than once will be in my future.
This is one story I would recommend.
