Book Description
Barrie Gilbert’s fascination with grizzly bears almost got him killed in Yellowstone National Park. He recovered, returned to fieldwork and devoted the next several decades to understanding and protecting these often-maligned giants. He has spent thousands of hours among wild grizzles in Yosemite and Yellowstone national parks, Alberta, coastal British Columbia, and along Brooks River in Alaska’s Katmai National Park, where hundreds of people gather to watch dozens of grizzlies feast on salmon. His research has centered on how bears respond to people and each other, with a focus on how to keep humans and bears safe. Drawn from his decades of experience, One of Us: A Biologist’s Walk Among Bears explodes myths that depict grizzlies as bloodthirsty beasts that “kill for pleasure” and reveals the intelligent, adaptable side of these astonishingly social animals. He also explains their pivotal role in maintaining and protecting their fragile ecosystems. Accordingly, Gilbert pulls no punches when outlining threats to bear conservation. Most importantly, this book extolls a new way of appreciating grizzly bears, the same way we regard wolves, whales, chimpanzees, and gorillas.

Book Description
Lia - I’m a strong, independent woman who can’t talk to men to save my life. I’ve certainly never gone into a club’s private room with a guy. Until now... Ash - The night I met her, I was supposed to be taking care of business, but I couldn’t take my eyes off her. As alpha of the Haven bear clan, I have to put others’ needs first so I’ve stayed away from her, even after I found out she was Haven’s new librarian. It’s safer for everyone, including her. But Destiny has other ideas. Thanks to a winter storm, I had to get closer than I should have and now it’s too late to walk away. I’ve had a taste, and there’s no going back. She’s mine, and I’ll destroy anyone who tries to take her from me. K. R. Max brings you dominant alpha males, sweet, strong women, and lots of very hot and dirty shenanigans. No cheating or cliffhangers and a guaranteed happy ever after, all in a short, intense read which is sure to raise your body temperature. If this sounds like your happy place, scroll up now and click that button! Then lock the door and grab a glass of wine (or ice water)! It's about to get hot in here! All Haven Bear Shifters books are standalones and can be read in any order, but you may get more out of each story if you read them in the order of publication, due to previous characters sometimes being mentioned in later books.

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Retired San Francisco cop Brad Lyon is settling into a quieter life with his wife Ashleigh in Virginia’s mountain country, where they collect and create teddy bears. But even here, stuff happens. The peace of the Shenandoah Valley is shattered when an intruder breaks into the Lyon home and makes off with their antique Farnell Alpha teddy bear—one of the most celebrated stuffed animals in history, and also Brad’s gift to Ash on their twentieth wedding anniversary. Afterward, life seems to be getting back to normal—until a trio of Japanese gangsters inexplicably shows up in town, and then the local museum director is found dead. Even though it all seems a bit fur-fetched, Brad knows he’s got a 187 on his hands—that’s California penal code for murder.
