Encountering

Description

Torben hates everything about himself. Grieving for his murdered family and lost career, the skilled cardiologist reluctantly accepts a position back on the reservation his grandfather “rescued” him from nearly 30 years before. Torben knows life has to go on after three years of mourning. But the grumpy bear shifter’s attempt to find healing and a place to belong goes terribly wrong when it turns out the young woman he’s been ogling and saying rude things to is his boss.

Serena Moonbear can’t stand her new employee. It’s taking all the compassionate doctor’s patience to give her ticking time bomb of a coworker enough space to regulate his emotions. It doesn’t help that his colossal ego comes paired with an incredibly handsome face.

Hiding his inner beast for fear it will make the lovely woman run for the hills, Torben clings to the glimmer of hope their growing chemistry has sparked. As Serena learns how to deal with the ill-tempered physician, her interest in getting naked with him starts to grow.

Will they tally up their fiery symptoms and diagnose true passion?

Encountering is the immersive first book in the Bear Ascending paranormal romance series. If you like flawed heroes, humorous misunderstandings, and journeys of healing through the power of love, then you won’t want to miss Kelsey Carter’s steamy tale of fated mates who move from enemies to lovers.
