A witch bound by a blood curse and the bear clan chief who needs her help collide in this steamy shifter romance. Witch-and-shifter heat, old magic and clan loyalties in the Wild Ridge wilderness. Shifters And Witches Don't Mix. Fate Didn't Get The Memo. Shifters and witches don't mix. At least that's what Talia Lear was raised to believe. It's not just that her family's coven disapproves; an ancient blood curse forbids her from so much as looking at a shifter. But look at one she does. When Talia meets Alpha bear Rafe McCormack, he stirs a powerful magic inside of her and a passion she can't deny. Rafe needs answers. Fast. The bears of Wild Ridge are suffering from a strange illness, and the clan chief suspects witchcraft. He has no time to spare messing with Talia, but this beautiful young witch has long legs and a smart mouth he just wants to kiss. With his clan's survival on the line, it'll take every ounce of self-control and cunning Rafe has to come out on top. Acting on their desires could doom them both. But sometimes fate has other plans. Curse of the Bears is a standalone novel in the Wild Ridge Bears series, for readers who love fated mates, witch-and-shifter romance and clan rivalries. Perfect for fans of Ilona Andrews, Patricia Briggs and Kim Harrison.
