She’s all roots and responsibility. He’s puns, plants, and persistent charm. But even the most guarded hearts can bloom—especially with a little bear shifter magic.

After a tragedy turns her world upside down, Marion is left with one purpose: raise her nephew and keep life simple.
Love? Off the table. And certainly not with a man who wears T-shirts that say “Let’s Root For Each Other” and calls compost "black gold."
But Alfie Thornberg isn’t just any man. He’s a bear shifter with a heart as big as his garden center—and patience that runs even deeper. When they’re accidently thrown together at a community gardening project, he falls fast and hard. Even though, she’s everything he never expected his mate to be: serious, skeptical, and determined to keep him at arm’s length.
Still, Alfie knows that the best things take time to grow.
Between slow smiles, gardening mishaps, and unexpected moments of tenderness, the walls she’s built start to crack. And when her carefully guarded life begins to bloom in ways she never saw coming, she’ll have to decide: can she trust a man who won’t stop showing up—and a love that just won’t quit?

An easy-going, pun-loving bear shifter
