Sometimes all it takes is a second chance.Niall Crawford has given up on dating. He’s sick of Shiftr, with its glittering promises of 90% matches that turn out to be nothing but mistakes. That’s just fine, because he’s stuck in Devil’s Back Ridge, two hours outside of Hope Valley, being temporary Alpha to a ragtag bunch of half-civilized beasts. He suspects Connor sent him here because he’s … because he’s bringing the clan down with his inability to find a mate. Fair enough. But the problem is worse than any of them realize. Niall’s bear is trapped inside him. And the beasts sense it, which is bad news. When Timberson, the coyote shifter, steals Niall’s phone and uses Shiftr to trick an unsuspecting woman to come to Devil’s Back Ridge, Niall’s world nearly implodes. She is none other than Marcia, Niall’s first love, who tore his heart in two, sixteen years earlier.
Marcia Hunt has left her old life behind. With her career and marriage in ruins, she has moved to Hope Valley and signed up to Shiftr. She’s lost her heart already, but maybe she can find the loyalty and protection she craves. When Niall rescues her from Timberson’s entrapment, old feelings come rushing back. He’s no longer the boy she once knew, though—he’s darker, tortured and full of secrets. He tells her she can’t stay, but he needs help—even if he’s too proud to admit it—and she’s not leaving him again.
It’s dangerous having Marcia in the territory—and not only because the beasts are not allowed to be around women. When Marcia’s suggestion that Niall fake-claims her results in a real kiss, tensions simmer even higher. The years have done nothing to quell the deep passion between them, but will it be enough to overcome the wounds of the past and help Niall to recover his bear in time to save them both?
This is a standalone book, full of romance, laughs and sexy shifters. HEA and no cheating, of course!

Until a bunch of rag tag shifters cause chaos an Niall is forced to become there alpha. This bad little bunch are so mischievous that they steal his phone an use the app to get someone unexpected up there.
This story had laughs and alot of drama but it was a fantastic story. I loved every page.
Get That Bear….
My very favorite app in the whole world and I don’t even get apps, but if they offered this one I would get it!
Niall is so tired of seeing all his clan brothers get their mates and he is on the outside looking in…..He doesn’t even want a mate, he already had his mate and she left him for another 15 years ago and ever since he has been a broken bear, man whatever..He even signed up on Shiftr and he can’t even get more than a 90% match there. To top it all off Conner sent him away to the mountains to rule in a Rag Tag bunch of shifters….Even his alpha doesn’t want him around!
Marcia so regrets the decision she made 15 years ago to listen to her parents and leave the love of her life Niall and marry another…. He was and still is her one and only love…If only…….She relocates to Hope Valley after a nasty divorce and Tamika convinces her to sign up at Shiftr and she receives a 100% match. He is a hunk of a bear, but his picture is so blurry, but she decides to go up the mountain anyway, if she can’t have love at least she can have a partner for life……
Will love give them another chance, or is Niall too broken to trust her again?
ARC review For honest review Marcia a music therapist joins” Shift” a dating app and goes to devils back ridge to meet her mate only to find something is wrong and Nials a alpha enforcer to the hope valley clan temporary alpha and the man you loved as a kid. Awesome story
This is a cute second chance story where the woman is willing to take the chance but the guy is the one afraid. Niall’s confidence is riding a thin edge & when his mate shows up unexpectedly, his uncertainty almost tears them apart again.
Another great addition to the Shiftr series! I really enjoyed this book! Great loves don’t happen everyday. What happens if you loose the love of your life? How does it affect you? Well, read this lovely story to catch a glimpse!!
Very enjoyable and entertaining read fantastic addition to the series. I had been waiting for Niall story so it was definitely worth the wait plus I’m a total sucker for second chances at love story. Hopefully Dalton will get his story too. Overall a great read. I voluntarily read and review this ARC no monetary compensation was received the opinions I have expressed are my own.
Love this series.
It was really good to see Niall’s story come out. I have always loved that bear shifter. Niall had a hard job he was faced with, but I guess you will have to read the book to find out what that was.
Marcia was an amazing woman. I love how strong and fearless she really was. She was very stubborn as well. She was a type of girl that decided to fight for what she really wanted and I love that about this story.
Niall will have to learn to trust again and that seems to be really hard for him. I can understand why he was protecting his heart though.
Timberson I was trying to decided where to love or hate him. By the end of the book I have to say I am hoping to see more about him in upcoming stories.
