Bearista

The moment he saw her, he knew only one thing: This woman is mine.

Gaby is a single mom, trying to make ends meet as a coffee shop barista while taking night classes, caring for her five-year-old son, and supporting her widowed mother.

Then her world comes crashing down when she witnesses an armed robbery—and the robber turns into a bear.

Enter Derek Ruger, former military, tough-as-iron bear shifter and bodyguard. The instant he sees Gaby, Derek knows this is more than just another job. This strong, feisty woman is his fated mate, and protecting her from a killer is the least of the things he wants to do with her—if he can only convince her to open the heart she's been sheltering for years.

But while Derek is ready to fight an entire pack of bear shifters to save Gaby and her son, can he learn to pull a decent shot of espresso?
