Description from the publisher:
When Olivia ends up going solo on her first Alaskan cruise, she expects the hardest thing she'll have to do for ten days is put down her cell phone, forget about work, and try to forget her ex-boyfriend while checking out glaciers from her balcony. But in her zeal to experience the real Alaska, she really misses the boat. That is, the ship sails away without her. Luckily, she meets Russell, a handsome local wilderness guide, who may be half grizzly bear, and may be in love with her. Olivia has only one day to decide if she can trust a bear enough to turn her life inside out and take what he is offering.

This is a standalone novella of 25,000 words. Some steaminess included.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BEAR CRUISE is a stand-alone paranormal romance… stand-alone, but it could easily be made into a series.

For a girl with trust issues, taking the leap to leave her life behind and join her bear is beyond my imagination.  Yet, that is what fantasy is about; isn’t it?  Imagine if I could be that brave, that daring, that adventurous!  Olivia did it and she found her HEA.

That’s not to say that she jumped in all that easily even if she did make her decision in just a day or so.  Indecision, fear, and second-guessing were there, but pushed aside for the sake of a chance at what her heart was telling her was the truth.  That I understand.

The characters she met along the way were individually sweet, compelling, and endearing.  I’d love to know each and every one of them better.

I hope Ms. Blake’s next book is all about Olivia’s best friend, Holly, finding her own cuddly (teddy) bear.  Then maybe we can find an Alaskan man for her shipmate, Jewel.  That girl could use some shaking up by finding one man who can keep her for more than a few days.
