“She’s looking for a mate who can handle all of her. He’s the only Bear who can!”Locke Nanouk is one big Polar Bear Shifter. At seven-feet three-inches tall and half again as wide, he towered over most everyone he met. The largest of his triplet brothers, he was used to being the odd man out. He never imagined he’d find happiness in Barvale, where the local female population tended to duck and … to duck and hide whenever he entered a room, but then she walked into his life.
Nita Jacobs is a Black Bear Shifter living in Barvale. Dating isn’t easy for the six-foot tall, small business owner. Picture her surprise when she finds her mate in the seven foot plus Polar Bear!
But what’s a she-Bear to think when her mate tucks tail and runs every time he sees her? No matter, Nita is determined to claim what’s hers despite the mixed signals Locke is sending her way.
Bundle up Barvale, there’s a polar outbreak headed to town!

A polar bear romance with a bit more.
Locke has spent his whole life thinking he was meant to be alone but wishing for his very own mate. So when he runs into Nita, a black bear shifter, he is overwhelmed and does the only thing he can… run so he doesn’t shift in public. But Nita isn’t going to let that stand because she’s been waiting for her mate too.
This is the second book in A Barvale Clan Tale and can easily be read as a standalone or in the order it was written.

Locke is the quiet triplet, his two brothers well haha…
So just for the heck of it, he tags along although not wanting to with his brothers to a place for a few beers. That is when his world gets tilted upside down.
Nita is a black bear who is just starting her very own business in town. So why is someone who is liked by all being stalked?
Will her mate get his head on straight and save the day?
I enjoyed this story a lot. The sassiness in Nita, and the shyness of the huge and hulking Locke. The action is good too.
Grab your copy although it’s book two you might read it before book one I wouldn’t…

Locke, and his family knew they had to be more vigilant when they were out and about now that the weather was getting warmer.
He was happier then he’d been in a long time and no he didn’t miss much about where they moved from.
Nita was excited she needed her grand opening to be perfect Honey Sweet Creamery was a dream come true for her.
She loved her dad but there were times when he should listen a little bit more.
Nita didn’t need to be reminded of her stupid ex boyfriend she was fine by herself.
Of course like anyone else she wanted a mate however now she’d finally set the date for her opening.
She should be focusing on her future not the jerk she kicked to the curb.
Her ex boyfriend had belittled her to everyone he knew trying to bring her down to his bottom dwelling level just because he would never been man enough for a woman like her.
Locke knew his size was intimidating to many people and the one woman he had unfortunately hooked up with was only using him and she made it perfectly clear that women didn’t want someone like him.
Nita had always dreamed what it would be like to meet her mate and now he was sitting there and boy did he check every box she could ever imagine.
Locke was totally stunned the girl was watching him he really like that but his bear was trying to make his presence known he knew if he stayed much longer he’d be losing his skin.
Nita was still upset that he ran but his brothers tried to explain why.
But honestly there was nothing wrong with him in fact she’d love the way he was more then anything.
Locke knew he was one lucky polar bear his beautiful mate matched him in more ways than he could count.
He was no fool fate sent him the most precious gift in the world and he planned on cherishing her.
Nita knew with every fiber of her being he was their perfect everything and she had no intentions of waiting she was the one in the driver’s seat, Nita didn’t even try to stop herself.
Locke couldn’t believe Nita choice him just like that wow he never expected someone would want him forever but she did.
Now it was his turn.
Only and idiot would keep running from his mate and he really wasn’t an idiot he just didn’t want to wake up one day and she’d be gone.
One look said it all her father was angry yeah he had plenty to be upset over.
But there would be enough time in the future to prove himself.
However he needed to put his big boy pants on an make things right between them he really needed to honest about himself but most of all he wanted to show he was worthy of her.

Awesome read!! I loved the characters and their development as the story progressed. I am so looking forward to the next book.
What an amazing read!! Yet again Gorri doesn’t disappoint, the imagination this lady has is epic!! Don’t hate yourself by missing out on this great read!
Locke and Nita’s story is fun and witty, with a little suspense thrown in. I love how those polar bears take care of problems, whether is cleaning up or talking sense from a foot off the ground! Looking forward to the next in series.
Locke is just so damn adorable… Big, shy and sexy Nita is a very lucky bear… This story was funny, steamy and I loved it.. Can’t wait to see what trouble the other brothers get in..
This was a great book that was full of pages with well developed characters and an engaging storyline and plenty of chemistry to keep me entertained. I always enjoy books by this author.

A great story. Locke is a triplet and he’s the largest polar bear. He was always feared and called a monster because of his size. He doesn’t believe he will ever find a mate. And Nita is a large black bear she has always towered over everyone. But she is strong and goes after what she wants, and she has her sights on Locke.
Can she get through to the big guy and have what she truly wants?

I really liked this book about two people that feel like misfits and have faced ridicule and rejection in love only to find each other and true love… after a few bumps along the way. Locke was such a sweetie and I loved the independence and fighting spirit of Nita in not giving up on him even after he bolted on her not just once, but twice! I want to read more about the polar bear shifters of Barvale and see how they each find their mates!

I volunteered to read this ARC for an honest review. I enjoyed this story about Locke and Nita. He’s a polar bear shifter from Alaska that transplanted top a little town in Jersey. Nita had lived there forever. She’s trying to open an ice cream shop but keeps hitting snags. They meet at the bar one night and they discover they are mates. Unfortunately there is another bear trying to stake his claim. Great HEA in the end.

Absolutely love these polar bear books! Locke and Nita’s story is all about finding your true north and loving them for themselves. Locke is so self conscious about his height that every time he sees Nita he runs even though he’s her mate. Nita isn’t about to let that fly and wants her polar bear.

Who doesn’t love Polar Bears. They are big, white and ferocious. Most people in Barvale are scared of a 7 foot tall man bear named Locke. And in walks Nita who’s a 6 foot Black Bear sifter who runs her small business in Barvale. Locke is convinced that no mate wants a 7″3 huge guy bear. Wrong! Looks like Nita has her work cut out for her tracking and convincing her mate that she’s more than fine with him. Great story of the she bear getting her mate. It was great watching them get their HEA> I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
Well worth reading!
The second book in the Barvale Clan Tales series a well written story that kept me turning pages. Locke Nanouk is one big Polar Bear Shifter who finds out his Mate is Nita Jacobs a Black Bear Shifter. There is suspense, drama, a sick man, and romance. I want to read the next book.

Locke Nanouk is a very tall polar bear shifter at 7’3” and has little hope of finding a mate who wants such a huge guy. But fate has the perfect female for him. Nita Jacobs is a tall, confident black bear shifter and her 6’ height fits very well with Locke. But as soon as they meet, Locke lets his insecurities take over and he runs away! But not to worry, he won’t get far once Nita has decided he is the perfect one for her!
I loved seeing Locke find his mate. He is a sweetie who deserves it, and she is the perfect one to make him happy. They have some tasks to handle along the way, but that just brings them closer together. Grab your copy and watch the amusing courtship as the big white bear finally meets his match!
I like how they interact with one another. It’s like they fell into a great rhythm. I also like the start of the story because you get a good background to both main characters. The fact that Locke is a little awkward in his own skin makes their HEA even better because of his care in how he interacts with Nita.
