Kodiak Chained / The Gatekeeper

A mighty Kodiak shifter, Ruger is more than a Sentinel warrior. As a Healer, he willingly risks everything defending the sick and helpless. But after an ambush nearly kills him, he can do only so much–until a sensual lady black bear shifter arrives to provide him backup…. In human form, she is called Mariska. Feisty and self–assured, she has finagled her present assignment helping Ruger chase down a rising new threat. The moment Mariska scents the heroic, battle–scarred grizzly she knows he will be her only weakness…and greatest desire. Mariska will do anything to aid Ruger–even if confronting the enemy puts everything she holds dear in jeopardy.
