Bear shifters make terrible boyfriends. When drunk raccoons turn her beloved Sticky Sweet Bakery into a rave, Allie Rowe needs a good contractor to repair the damage. She’s ticked when her meddling father hires the sexiest bear shifter in town to come to the rescue. Her dad knows how she feels about shifters. They might be good workers, but they’re unsatisfactory lovers with small… cinnamon sticks, and bad tempers. It’s a good thing this contractor is only after her sticky buns and a paycheck and nothing else because she’s not interested. Until her new handyman gets soaked by her faulty sprinkler system, his tee-shirt plastering to his chest, wet jeans hinting that there’s nothing small about him. Ok, she might be a little interested. But he’s hiding something and if her past is an indicator, the truth will be anything but sticky sweet. Dax Mitchell needs a wife pronto before his precious virility turns from stud to weakling. The moment he meets Allie, his inner bear wants to claim her for a forever mate. She’s beautiful. Decadent. Funny. And dead-set that shifters are the worst. When a threat returns in Allie’s life, Dax must hurry to keep her safe, and convince her she’s his mate. Will true love be the frosting on their undeniable passion, or will they lose everything before the full moon ends?
