I have been waiting for another Grizzley Ridge book and this one does not dissappoint. Elena did an excellent job with Ryker and Nina’s story. A diffinate must read. Really can a jaded shifter and lost human really make it work? You have to read to find out

His to Defend is Elena Aitken’s new romance and you definitely don’t want to miss it.
Nina is heading to Grizzly Ridge for her best friend’s wedding and some much needed downtime to try to figure out what is next since losing her job and she is more than interested when she meets a sexy mountain man.
Ryker realizes he is in so much trouble the very first time her sees Nina and knows that it can only be a one time thing because nothing good can come from a relationship between a grizzly shifter and a human.
I’m looking forward to reading the next book in the series!
I was given an ARC from the author/publisher. All conclusions are mine and mine alone.
Ryker shows up to stop his cousin’s wedding but ends up getting the surprise of his life. Nina is so excited to see her best friend and celebrate her wedding. Sparks fly quickly between Ryker and Nina but Ryker doesn’t know how to handle finding his fated mate and soon both have some tough decisions to make.
Ahhhhh, it’s so good to visit Grizzly Ridge again. I loved the original books in this series and I’m so glad Elena Aitken is following them up with a few more bear shifter romances!
His to Defend is Nina and Ryker’s story. They meet when they both visit Grizzly Ridge in order to attend Harper and Axel’s wedding. Nina is Harper’s best friend, we met her in book one of the series, and Ryker is Axel’s cousin. Sparks fly for the two of them upon their first meeting, though Ryker really does NOT want to mate a human…he doesn’t even approve of a bear mating a half breed! Nina, on the other hand, has no idea about shifters, what a mate is, etc. so she is completely in the dark. Together they make quite the reluctant pair.
Although the premise of this book isn’t that unique in the large world of shifter romances, the push and pull between these two, the intervention of Ryker’s cousins, the weddingish atmosphere, and Nina’s unbeknownst close friendship with a shifter make this book a must-read.
Ryker follows the edicts of his grandfather, including the one which shifters cannot mate humans. Nina is human and knows nothing of shifters, but she feels an incredible attraction to Ryker. We also get to read about all the previous couples and Harper’s wedding. I did not see the need for Nina to get wasted. No self control.
Elena Aitken never disappoints. This shifter story was good from the very beginning. Nina goes to help her very best friends wedding. There she meets Ryker (a large grizzly shifter. He knows immediately that she is his mate, but is fighting it like mad due to his upbringing that bears DO NOT mate with humans. This story had a little drama, a little romance, some hot sex and a man who finally goes after what he wants.

This is a fast read, but it will keep you interested until the end. Ryker comes to Grizzly Ridge to stop the wedding between Harper and Axel, his cousin. Nina is Harper’s best friend and is going to be her maid of honor. Nina and Ryker have some amazing chemistry, but he tries to fight it. Will he succeed or will he give in? I love reading about the other characters and catching up with whose had a baby or is pregnant now. I’m looking forward to reading the next book to see why the surprise visitor showed up at the end.
