Brother Bear Mated

Thames, the eldest brother bear of the Ursa Gemini twins—the only remaining members of the Deadclaw bear shifter clan—has spent the last ten years of his life working as a bouncer at a shifter bar and trying to forget the brutal life he was born into. Now his brawling bear is ready to settle down and catch a mate. He doesn’t know what he’ll find when he and his brother take a security job for a vacation lodge run by a clan of werecats, but a dark-magic wielding witch who unwittingly chooses him as mate was never what he expected. Nastia, Sorcera of Light, has taken on a dark burden. In order to save her coven sisters and the Ouachita clan from an evil foe, she used dark magic to kill. Now her light is fading faster than she can recover. But a certain bear shifter has captured her attention with his patient manner and his logical ideals about love. When he whisks her away to his cave and offers her sanctuary and a place to call home, Nastia begins to believe they can overcome anything as long as they do it together. But the darkness won’t be ignored, and when dark magic tries to steal Nastia’s free will, the witch, the bear, and the clan will have to find a way to outwit the evil that holds her hostage.
