Overall Kyle's shifter books tend to make me happy. I like that her heroines aren't stick figure--that they have some meat on them and (for the most part) don't angst too greatly over that fact. Mia was a little bit of a black horse in this, but some of what her father said to her didn't really HELP matters in that general area. Ty was...well Ty was yummy. Normally the overwhelmingly possessive attitude he displays would irritate me, but it was so adorable here. It wasn't just towards Mia either, he begins to feel possessive about Parker (the bear cub) as well and that's even MORE adorable.

Prelim review--longer review later ( )

This book is OTT and ridiculous. ( )

that cub stole the show! had me laughing, then crying from the start. ingenious! I loved every minute of this heArt warming book. had a hint of mystery, which our alpha male firmly took hold of. I'm about to reAd the just released book 2, and fully except a book of yet again exceptional value. love, love this author. ( )

Sweet and Sassy

I love how protective Mia is about a little cub from the very first time she saw him. She and Ty together are great, even when he's being stupid. ( )

Synopsis:

The first day of Mia’s new life in Grayslake, Georgia is not going as planned. The house her grandfather left her looks ready to crumble, boxes cover every inch of the floor and—oh—there’s a bear cub in her pantry. It gets worse when the cub’s uncle comes by and busts out his fur and claws while on her front porch. Then it gets loads better because suddenly there’s a hot hunk of badge-wearing werebear on her lawn ready to rescue her. Yum. Of course, he has to ruin things by trying to take the cub out of her hands. Ha! The cub is hers… No ifs, ands, or bears about it.

Werebear Ty can’t seem to get the curvaceous, delectable Mia to understand that, even if she is one-quarter werebear, she isn’t keeping the cub. Ty is the Grayslake Itan, the clan’s leader, and the little werebear is going home with him… Unless it isn’t. It’s her smile. If she’d stop smiling and being gorgeous, his inner-bear would support him and Ty would get his way. But the beast wants to make their woman happy, so it’s perfectly content to let her do as she pleases. Then things change. Threats arise, danger comes close, and Ty demands she return to his den. No ifs, ands, or mates about that.

This book is part of the "Grayslake" series

My review:

This is the first of her books that I've read. I quite enjoyed it, seeing as I love shifter stories ( )
