Bear in a Bakery

He’s all sunshine and sawdust. She’s sworn off shifters for good. Fate doesn’t care.

Allie Rowe has one rule: no more bear shifters. After being burned by a mate who rejected her, she’s done with muscle-bound alphas and their fated-mate nonsense. But when a family of drunk raccoons destroys her beloved Sticky Sweet Bakery weeks before the biggest event of the year, she’s forced to accept help — even if that help comes with broad shoulders, a wicked grin, and way too much charm.

Dax Mitchell is a cinnamon roll in a flannel shirt — a golden-retriever-hearted carpenter who loves fixing things, even when they’re stubborn, curvy, and smell like vanilla frosting. Fate says Allie is his mate. Allie says absolutely not. But the more time they spend together covered in sawdust and sugar, the harder it is for either of them to resist what’s meant to be.

Dax’s time is running out. If he doesn’t claim his mate soon, he’ll lose his strength — and break his dying father’s heart. But when a hidden enemy threatens Allie’s safety, claiming her becomes more than destiny. It becomes a fight to protect the woman he’s waited his whole life for.

🍯 Bear in a Bakery is a swoon-worthy, small-town, fated mates shifter romance featuring a grumpy, curvy heroine, a sunshine-hearted bear who refuses to give up, sticky-sweet passion, and a happily-ever-after baked to perfection.
