    About this ebook

    What do you do when your mate isn't looking for a mate?

    Bear shifter and virgin Iduna Hudson doesn't want a mate. But she wants a baby. So she has herself artificially inseminated and is ready for life as a single mom. Who needs a man anyway?

    Werewolf Stephen Jackson knows his one chance to have a family is to track down the woman who received his sperm. His wolf knows he's found his mate the moment he sees her.

    But love isn't an option. Iduna is much younger than Stephen, and the relationship between wolves and bears is strained at the best of times. And these aren't the best of times.

    Things turn deadly when Stephen and Iduna come face-to-face with anti-shifter zealots who are out to kill every shifter that crosses their path.

    But Stephen has been searching for his mate for decades and isn't going to give up when he's finally found her. Even if it means fighting the fight of his life.

    Can Stephen and Iduna escape their enemies?

    Can they save themselves and their baby?

    Will love conquer hate?

    This is a 16,000 words stand-alone story with an HEA, so no cliff-hangers. The story contains hot wolves, bears and mature language. Intended for 18+ readers only.

      Chapter One – Iduna

      It was a beautiful day in the southern interior of British Columbia. The mountains were dappled green-and-yellow, the contrast between the deciduous and coniferous trees painting a picture of the transition between summer and winter. Iduna Hudson sat on a bench just outside the library in a rare moment of enjoying the beauty around her, rather than keeping her nose in a book

      It helped that there wasn't anyone around to try to draw her into conversation and then act like they didn't want to talk just as she was explaining why leaves turned color in the fall.

      Her baby kicked her, making her wince, and the Bear put a hand over her belly. At eight months pregnant, she couldn't wait for the next month to pass by. She was tired of being pregnant. As much as she enjoyed the sensation of being a little person moving inside her, the backaches and swollen feet and her body's refusal to get comfortable at night was wearing on her nerves.

      But she didn't regret the decision to get pregnant. She wanted a baby, and she was going to have one.

      Iduna inhaled the fresh air. Her small Bear Shifter community was fairly isolated, made up mostly of farmers and orchardists, and they preferred to go about their business on foot or with their Bears. Rarely did people around here use vehicles, even though everybody had a car. The result was that the air was clean and fresh, and the community cozy and quiet. It was one of the reasons why Iduna enjoyed living here so much. She could breathe without worrying about the effects of pollution on her lungs.

      An unfamiliar scent caught her nose and she turned.

      Her eyes widened and her heart rate spiked when she saw the man walking towards her. He wasn't a Bear. That was clear. He walked with a certain amount of dominance and grace, not the heavy-footed steps that she was accustomed to. His dark hair was just starting to gray at the ends, and crow's feet spread from the corner of his eyes. Iduna guessed he was around forty. His skin was a milky color, indicating he was more of an office worker than an outdoorsman.

      And he was beautiful. Iduna willed her heart to slow down, a little concerned about her reaction. There were plenty of good-looking men in the community, so why were hormones flooding her system now? That in itself was odd. She could count on one hand the amount of times she had been sexually attracted to someone.

      Well, it would be over soon enough. As soon as they started talking he'd start sounding like an idiot and her attraction would die as suddenly as it had blossomed.

      Hello, she said.

      Hello. He took off his ball cap. Are you Iduna Hudson?

      Iduna blinked in surprise. Do I know you?

      No. I... this is weird, I know, and I apologize if I make you uncomfortable. But I'm the donor.

      What donor? Iduna gasped as her baby kicked again, eyes going wide. Of course. You mean the sperm donor that I chose when I was artificially impregnated?

      Yeah. I'm that donor.

      I see. She peered at him closely and nodded once. He was just as she had been assured of at the clinic. How did you find me?

      You signed some papers that let the clinic tell me how to contact you. May I sit?

      Iduna nodded, shifting to give him room. The man sat. Now that he was closer, the Bear could smell ink toner and a spicy scent to him. She leaned forward unconsciously, sniffing. Her heart rate picked up again and she felt her hands start to tremble. Her reaction surprised her and frightened her a little bit.

      She had
