Carter and His Bear — A.J. Jarrett

Carter Herrington has never needed anyone or anything until he met his mate. Now all the things Carter thought he never wanted are suffocating him so badly he doesn't know what to do. But he does know one thing. Living without Abner White isn't possible. Falling in love and living happily ever after was what Abner envisioned when he found his mate, but what he got was one disappointment after another. Sure Carter is everything he's ever dreamed of, funny, witty, and the sexiest man he's ever seen, but he can't forgive Carter's callous behavior. But the more time he spends with Carter, the harder it's becoming to deny the man he can't help but fall in love with. When the council of paranormal beings calls seeking Carter's help, he returns with Abner by his side. Just as their relationship starts to blossom, a hidden evil threatens to blow their newfound happiness right off the map.
