Independence has its virtues ... but sometimes you really need a helping paw.
She’s not looking for a white knight ...
Single mom Gemma Ellis loves her son -- and hates asking for help. Her no-account ex has taught her she can’t rely on anyone but herself, even if that means working two jobs and barely scraping by.
Big, burly, handsome doctor Eddie Rochon makes Gemma wonder if good men are more than a myth. She's tempted to give him a chance ... but trust is hard after all she's been through.
He’s ready to save the day ...
Eddie’s a polar bear shifter with a gift for taking care of people … and a bit of a gnome problem. When he realizes the curvy brunette with the adorable little boy is his mate, his need to help her kicks into overdrive--but if he tries too hard, he’ll drive her away.
Welcome home ... or see you later?
When Gemma’s ex turns up, things get even more complicated. Can Eddie protect his newfound family and convince his mate that he's not like other men she's known? Or will her self-reliance blind her to the truth?
