Nobody threatens his mate and gets away with it! Bodyguard, Hunter, returns to Bear Creek for some downtime between jobs. However, his world is soon turned upside down when he offers to help Cynthia, who has received a threatening letter from an unknown source. The investigative reporter, who is responsible for bringing an end to a child trafficking ring, is his mate. Hunter swears he will do whatever it takes to protect Cynthia and her children. Even if it costs him his life. But he would rather hunt down the person responsible for the threat and let his bear rip their head off. Cynthia thought she’d ended the reign of terror brought about by a child trafficking ring. It soon becomes clear she has some unfinished business that will threaten her future and that of her children. However, when she meets Hunter, she realizes she is not in this alone. She is his mate, and he’ll stand by her side no matter what. With the help of other members of Bear Creek Protectors, she’s ready for one last fight, one last chance to bring a bad guy to justice, and reunite four lost children with their parents.
