Bear — Marteeka Karland

Trouble's following this girl. And it's headed straight to Grim Road.Olivia: I've been sent to infiltrate Grim Road -- specifically looking for any information to do with the man they call Bear. I didn't expect to jump into the man's arms on the first try. I also didn't expect to feel an illogical sense of belonging and safety when he whispered in my ear, You're safe. My deception will probably get me killed. I'm not a damsel in distress, at least not how they think. But I think Bear knows I'm lying. He just doesn't seem to care.Bear: Yeah, I know the girl's lyin'. I also happen to believe she has a good reason. If I can get her to trust me, then I can make her demons disappear. But trust is hard-earned. Even if I earn hers, can I trust her after she started out with lies? Do I really care if she's lying as long as she's mine? WARNING: Bear includes scenes of graphic violence and adult situations including those that may be triggers for some readers. There's also a protective hero, a determined heroine, and an eventual happy ending. No cheating, as always.
