Borealis Bears

The stand alone first title in a brand-new shifter trilogy by New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend. Get mated-or else! When their meddling, match-making family patriarch lays down the law, Giles Borealis' three polar bear shifter grandsons agree to follow his edict. Only James, Alex and Cooper each have a vastly different plan in mind to deal with their impending mating fevers. Will any of them be able to fight fate? Spoiler: not likely! First up: James, the youngest of the brothers... He's going to accept his fate-but only with the woman he chooses! Youngest brother James Borealis figures if he has to get mated, it should be with someone he already knows and cares about-his best friend Kaylee. But when the mating fever hits, she's still stuck in friendshipland while he's ready to move all the way to true love and forever. Kaylee has heard about polar bear mating fever, but while James has held the starring role in her fantasies for a long time, she's not about to leap into a permanent relationship that's all wrong for him. He's the PR powerhouse for Borealis Gems while she's a quiet bobcat shifter with massive family baggage. He loves the spotlight, she wants to hide in quiet corners. But mating fever knows best, and when the storm settles, there's no use in arguing with a polar bear's choice.

He's going to pick someone perfectly wrong for him-because fate isn't in charge of his world! A stand alone title in a shifter trilogy by New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend. As head of security for the family company, polar bear shifter Alex Borealis has intel warning something big is about to happen. His prime suspect? Tantalizing, infuriating Lara Lazuli, youngest daughter of Borealis Gems' main competitor. But when mating fever hits, he decides she's the perfect one to turn to. They've got chemistry hot enough to melt the polar ice caps, but he doesn't trust her enough for a permanent connection to form. Being with Alex is one step shy of torture for Lara. As a wolf shifter, she scented the truth the instant she met him months ago-he's her mate. But she's not about to trap anyone into being with her, especially not a man who thinks she's up to no good. Add in her own suspicions of wrong-doing in her pack and Lara's caught between heaven and hell. But tangled sheets lead to real communication, and a bond of friendship forms that neither expected. When Lara asks for help, Alex finds himself living in the pack house, scaring off random Alpha wolves and fighting at her side. Because the mating fever knows a thing or two about fate and forever.

He's got the perfect mate in mind, for five years from now… The final title in a light-hearted shifter trilogy by New York Times bestselling author Vivian Arend. Cooper Borealis is fully onboard with the concept of fated mates. Except mating the woman he wants-his tempting, complicated, human secretary-is not an option. Or not yet anyway. So he'll use a loophole to keep the vow he made to his brothers, mating fever be damned. He'll be with Amber Myawayan at the place and time of his choosing. Amber has spent the past two years in the north looking for her missing brother-and falling in love with the big, growly polar bear at the helm of Borealis Gems. More than once, she's caught him looking at her with hungry shifter eyes. But getting him to admit it? Ha! Luckily, mating fever is a thing, and she's happy to get involved as nature forces the issue to the forefront. But when their mating bond is unexpectedly blocked, Amber and Cooper find themselves in a race against time. She needs to track down her brother while somehow proving she's tough enough to be with her favourite bear. Cooper plans to protect her at all costs, even if it means secretly stifling his stubborn shifter side. Somewhere in the wilderness they'll find the answer…or lose their chance at forever.
