Description from the publisher:
She's destined to be his ... if he can keep her alive.
Underground ...
Gauge Stockwell is a detective working to infiltrate a drug ring. He’s eager to find his mate, and has just gotten a match on the human-shifter mating website started by one of the shifters on Fate Mountain. But before he can meet her, he gains access to the criminal gang and has to go undercover.
Under lock and key ...
Lola Lockheart is a prisoner inside the gang’s compound, held there by her stepbrother Justin, the leader of the drug ring. She used a secret phone to register on the mating website, but when she gets a match, the man’s profile is mysteriously blank. Even his name is redacted.
Under fire
As soon as Gauge sees Lola, he knows she’s his mate -- but the slightest hint from him will get them both killed. It’s clear from how the gang treats her that she’s not there willingly. Can Gauge and the rest of the Bear Patrol free Lola and shut down the drug ring? And even if they can, will a woman who’s spent years as a captive trust the stranger who yearns to claim her for his own?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

DETECTIVE BEAR is the second book in the Bear Patrol series.  Each stands on its own, but it is better to read them all and in the order of release…. Along with the books from the Bear Warden series, Fate Valley Mysteries, and Rescue Bear series.

I enjoyed reading this short, sweet story.  I love detective shows and stories anyway, so this one had me from page one.  Add in that Gauge wants to go undercover to clear drugs out of their town and I’m already all in and rooting for him to win the day and the girl!

Proof that timing is everything.  Just as he’s about to leave to go undercover, he finally gets a ping on Match.com.  You would think that’s bad timing, but …. Well I’m sure you’ve already figured it out from the blurb.

I love brave, strong, intelligent Gauge and Lola.  They are perfectly matched and ready for each other.  This may be my favorite book in the series.

Note:  while I was given this book as a gifted copy, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
