Polar bear shifter Tonic has known that Maya was his mate since the moment they met — and he’s finally about to claim her. A steamy entry in a series featuring the Barvale Clan!

It started out as a mating of convenience, but the bond between them is too strong to resist...

He wants to claim his mate, but this female is hard to catch.

Maya Osborn has had a lot of heartache in her life, and she isn't in the market for any more. Especially not from a Polar Bear Shifter who speaks before he thinks.

With her step-mother recently married, Maya is suddenly in charge of their florist shop and she finds herself in over her head. It seems someone has taken out a loan in the business' name and the bank wants its money or else she will lose everything. Who can she turn to for help in her time of need?

Tonic Nanouk has been lusting after Maya since the day he landed in Barvale, New Jersey from his small Alaska Clan. He knew in his heart that the small female was his fated mate, but so far she's been resistant to his charm. Okay, so he was a little rough around the edges, but what did a Bear have to do to get some attention around here?

When Maya gets into financial trouble, Tonic offers her a way out. It's his one chance to show her they might be polar compounds, but together their bond is stronger than anything. Will she take a chance on him?

Find out in this next installment of the Barvale Clan Tales.

Maya is another victim of scam artists but has no recourse as she isn't a member of the clan because she hadn't shifted. On advise of the former alpha, Tonic and Maya mate but their inner animals both claimed the other as mates before this. There is three clan members that harass Maya because she is a half-breed that couldn't shift. They challenge Tonic to the death after he protects Maya. It was a three on one fight. It is during this fight that Maya shifts for the first time into the rare spirit bear to protect Tonic. Their mating grows stronger and they are open in declaring their love.

3.0 out of 5 stars I received a copy from BookSprout; this is my honest review.
Reviewed in Canada on December 24, 2020
-Maya is special but also weird. At places, I felt really uncomfortable and I kind of understood the people where she lived when she "talk" to their beast.
-What are those bath sheets made of? LOL "She just let it (bath sheet) drop to the wood floor with a resounding thud". I tried this at home and there wasn't any resounding thud; a gentle rush maybe?
-The end was a bit cheesy, chiefly after reading this three times in as many pages: "so much love, so much pleasure, it blinded her to everything but him.". It was supposed to be really romantic but I just had to laugh.
-So the book goes a bit like this: They both know the other is their mate but don't say so. They agree to mate anyways for other reasons. They have a lot of fun in the bedroom then Tonic has to fight for his life and of course he wins. They start fooling around again and we meet the potential couple for the next book.
-I liked how Tonic was taking care of Maya or how he would get angry at other males for even looking at her. That was really sweet and understandable.
-The book is categorized "steamy" but there were more bedroom scenes than a full story. Steamy doesn't mean bedroom scenes every other pages - that would be erotica with hands-on details - it's the heat of the scenes. I thought it was a bit boring because I was looking forward to a nice PRN romance with steam.

I loved this story but I cried through most of it...Maya and Tonic's story had me very emotional.. Never feeling like you truly belong, always feeling and being treated like an outcast is such a hard life to live.. I adore all these characters and how their new lives are evolving I know the next story is going to be another emotional roller-coaster from the teaser in the end of this book...

Maya Osborn has a problem, that she is an outsider, the child of a shifter but not appearing to be a shifter. It's only after her stepmother Jill has signed the business, a flowershop to her that she learns of the trouble she is now facing.

Tonic Nanouk is one of three polar bears who came south from Alaska with their cousin Bowie. Now both Bowie and his older brother Locke have found their mates and additions to their families.

When bullies try to use outdated laws to punish Tonic for defending his mate, there are a couple of surprises in store, which helps Maya and Tonic admit their true feelings and bring about a change.

Tonic has known from the 1st time that he met her, Maya, that she was his mate. But, he doesn’t have a way with words & doesn’t know how to tell her.

Maya, has a shifting problem in that she can sometimes feel her bear but can’t shift. & she now has money issues thanks to some swinders that ran the local bank.

But, when the former Alpha tells them that all Maya needs to do to have the Clan help her out is to get mated. Tonic because he doesn’t have the words thinks it a great idea & asks Maya if she will be his mate.

But, you’ll have to read the book to find out if she agrees.
