I really liked this book a lot, Reading Silvertip shifters was amazing. Definitely a must read!
Slade Walker is the BearShifter also a hot shots firefighter who made the jump at any wildfire he was there. One thing he knew from high school who his mate was but he tried to avoid it as much as possible sometimes you just can’t avoid everything .
Everly is the FoxShifter who owns part of a little tavern with her brother Tobias. She is sad all the time because two years ago when he came back, he came with out her little brother Jacob. Her whole family’s lives had changed her parents, her brothers life and hers. But the worst of all was he didn’t want to recognize her.
Was originally titled differently but still a short fun read.
Not quite sure why Everly and Slade were the only two not to know they were mates.
The whole situation with Jacob, though interesting, was a bit silly too.
If Slade had only found that letter sooner, they may not have lost two years due to his misplaced guilt. Still unsure as to why he felt guilty.
The thing with the Tarbens seemed rushed but it worked into the story.
Read through KU.
Lots of fun, lots of action, great read.
Loved how racism and cast system was introduced in the shifter world and how it effected the love between Slade and Everly’s life and their family. The characters are strong. Slade is a hotshot firefighter and Everly’s is a bar owner. The mystery of her missing brother has been keeping them from their fated mates, but can they overcome this. How will they handle the racism. I loved this series.
Everly is a fox shifter who was treated very badly at school by a family of bear shifters who thought she was beneath them. She has had a crush on her best friend Slade forever, who is a silvertip bear shifter. When her brother Jacob disappears, Slade blames himself and avoids Everly. Will they ever get together and realise that they are mates? What a terrific story. Loved it.
Everly is a fox shifter and works as a bartender at a local bar. Slade is a bear shifter and happens to be Everly’s mate. He’s been fighting it for awhile but when he is confronted by his brother he has no choice but to admit to what he’s feeling. When Everly reads the letter Slade gave her that was from her brother she ends up drinking by herself before some friends invite her to girls night. Slade crashes their girls night to apologize for how he has been treating Everly and ends up walking her home. Things start to progress between them and its only just hitting him that some shifters ignore her like she isn’t there. It upsets him and he tries to make it right. When they realize where her brother Jacob could be they set about trying to make things right for him also. By taking down the shifter group responsible for framing him. Will they be able to get her brother free? Can they be together without any others causing them troubles?
This is an amazing story that once I started it I couldn’t put it down. The chemistry between them is blazing hot. This is a well written and very entertaining story. I would recommend this book to any book lover.

Very enjoyable and entertaining. I loved the whole concept of this love story plus I’m a sucker for second chance at love story. Overall a good read.

If you enjoy reading shifter romance than this is the book for you! The great character and plot development kept me glued to my kindle as each and every page was turned until the very end!
This is the first book I’ve read in this series. It will work as a stand alone, but I would have enjoyed it much more if I had the backstories for the other brothers. Everly was a wonderful character. Besides being a bit shy and insecure, she was intuitive and understanding. Slade was also wonderful. strong, caring, protective and very possessive of Everly. He had a misplaced sense of guilt over Everly’s missing brother, Jacob. They were best friends through out high school, even though he was a bear and she was a fox. I loved the strength of character Everly found when she and Slade finally admitted they have always had feelings for each other. She will come face to face with bullies from her past and with Slade, her friends and neighbors she will finally stand up to them and give them what they deserve. I requested an advanced reader copy from Booksprout and am under no obligation to leave this review.
Well written characters about two people dealing with loss and facing the fact they are mates. Slade is a bear shifter and Everly is a fox shifter. Everly has issues from her past that has kept her from admitting Slade is her mate. And Slade is keeping secrets. No cliffhanger and Hea. Wonderful story.

Everly Vos is a fox shifter who has had a huge crush on Slade Walker, local bear shifter, hotshot firefighter, ever since her family moved to Deep Hollow years ago.
Two years ago, Everly’s brother and Slade’s best friend, Jacob, disappeared without a trace, and Slade was the last person to see him. Since that time, the two have avoided being around each other as much as possible, Slade thinking that Everly and her family blamed him for not saving Jacob while Everly felt her family would not want her to continue her long time friendship/relationship with Slade.
Fate will not be denied, however, and a long lost letter for Everly, left in Slade’s coat pocket by her brother, bring the two together again. Good thing too, because the two are fated mates.
Events unfold, involving a bear shifter family from another town who are visiting Slade’s family’s resort. The same racist family that shunned Everly’s family years ago for not being larger, predatory shifters.
Love, self discovery and mystery combine with an amazingly real storyline to make this book a page turning, grip the edge of your chair success.
I love the characters in this series and really enjoyed the “stand together for what you believe in” focus put on the individual, couple, family, friends and town. All around great book. I received an ARC of this book via Booksprout and I am voluntarily leaving a review without any compensation.

Hotshot Bear: Slade by J. K. Harper is the fifth book in the Silvertip Shifters series. This book focuses on a couple who are a grizzly bear shifter named Slade Walker who works as a Hotshot Fireman and a fox shifter named Everly Vos who runs her families bar The Tank in their little hometown of Deep Hollow. This book is a sweet shifter romance story that focuses on how these two mates finally get together after talking through their feelings and past misunderstandings. I loved the way this couple fought their mutual attraction in the story and then finally they got together once they talked to one another. This is a really fun and entertaining paranormal romance. Hotshot Bear: Slade is a sweet and spicy shifter romance.
I absolutely love this series. This is the fifth in this series, but you could read it as a stand-alone. If you do read this as a stand alone, you will want to read the rest of the stories because J.K. Harper has created a fantastic town with great people what you will want to meet. She knows how to tell a story where you dive right in and enjoy the ride. I love that the characters are so different, but they are so true, always supportive with each other. You get to visit with the characters from previous stories and people who will be in the next story and/or series.
In this story, Everly, a hot fox shifter, is working at her family bar. Two years ago one of her brothers seemed to disappear. He could be dead or he could have just ran away. Nobody knows and it has really changed the family. The family had moved to this town in Colorado from Idaho where the shifters there were very elitist. They looked down on the smaller predator shifters. When Everly was a teenager, they moved to Deep Hollow where there are shifters of every kind and there are no prejudice among them. She has been best friends with Slade Walker since they moved there. In high school, they kissed for the first time. He said that they shouldn’t do that in that it would reck their friendship. When her brother disappeared, Slade was the last person to see him. Since then, he has stayed away from her.
Slade is a grisly bear shifter, one of the many Walkers in town. They run the shifter resort, but that doesn’t mean that all the brothers are rich. They have to earn their own money. As a hotshot firefighter, he may be away for more time than he is at home, but he always knew this is what he wanted to be. Just like he knew since high school that Everly is his mate. He just didn’t want to reach out and change the status from best friends to mates and possibly loose her. Since her brother has been gone, he had to stay away from her, because he was keeping a secret and to punish himself, he gets into shifter fights and earns some more money. When he was cleaning out his old beater truck before getting a new truck with his winnings, he found her brother’s jacket and it had an envelope in there addressed to her. So, after two years, he goes to give her the envelope, and hopefully disappear again from her life.
Secrets come out, the bullies from Idaho come to Deep Hollow and the whole town comes out to support Everly.

Another amazing book in the Silvertips Shifters series! This book is well written, action-packed, exciting, witty, and well developed. The characters are likeable – fated mates – with off the charts chemistry between them. Quite an enjoyable read and I look forward to the next book.

Every and Slade were mates, but were both too stubborn to admit. Evenly was a fox shifter and had been bullied her whole life and Slade was a bear and was too shy around her. Story was interesting and the characters were strong. Good read!

Some Mighty and Romantic Shifting Going on!
Love some good shifter reading and this series is providing that in spades.
This time it’s big bad Bear shifter Slade and Fox shifter Everly. They’ve know each other since high school when her family moved into the community.
Everyone seems to realize they are mates but them as they dance around each other dealing with all sorts of issues. Will they ever stand still long enough?
This is a great series, well written not only as a shifting story but as a romance. Loved Everly’s inner voice…hilarious!
Definitely recommending this book for your reading enjoyment and pleasure…and your inner animal. Peace.

This is an intriguing bear shifter romance with a well-paced plot. The characters are quite well-developed although one of the characters (a female fox shifter, Everly) suffers from low self-esteem while the other character (a bear shifter, Slade) is plagued by past memories.
There is various kinds of shifters, friendship, family issues, bigotry, memories, secrets, mystery, longings, misunderstandings, emotional turmoil, verbal conflict, confrontations, discovery, illegal activities, prisoners, unjustly held, bribery, physical conflict, determination, romance, contentment, verbal banter, love & a happy ending.
