Description from the publisher:
Head to Bear Mountain, where a tight-knit clan of shifters is searching for their happily-ever-afters.
Hot shifters, sizzling romance, and fast-paced adventures - what more could anyone ask for? You will love this sizzling shifter romance, because it’s full of fierce bear shifters who will stop at nothing to claim what’s theirs.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
RESCUED ON BEAR MOUNTAIN is the first book in the Bear Mountain Shifters series and it is a wonderful introduction to the shifters and this world that Sloane Meyers is creating.
Joel and Anna touched my heart as they meet and slowly realize that the insta-attraction that they felt is real. I fell in love with them as they fell in love with one another.
I love when the title is completely in tune with the story. Joel rescued Anna – literally – when she was caught in a snow storm. They each are rescued by the other with their relationship bringing them together. A new home for her. A house that is now a true home for him.
This story does more than introduce Joel and Anna. It also introduces the feud between the Pine Valley humans and the Bear Mountain shifters that will be a continuing story arc though the rest of the series.

CLAIMED ON BEAR MOUNTAIN is the second book in the series. This is a continuation of the feud between the humans and the bears, but could be read as a stand-alone story.
Caroline is only in Pine Valley for the tourist season. She has a booth in the local mall where she sells her hand-made jewelry. On a rare night out at the local club, she meets Scott. Scott is security – at the club and later her security.
The feud between the humans in the valley and the bears on the mountain is easily comparable to the prejudices we see around us every day.
I really liked this story. Perception, judgement, but more so emotion-filled romance. There is steam and sweetness as Scott and Caroline come together against the odds that have been stacked against them.

SEDUCED ON BEAR MOUNTAIN is the third book in the series.
I loved Jackie and Evan. Evan has been one of the most vocal bears about not mating with shifters. Fate, like God, laughs when you try to make those kinds of decisions. Fate will not be thwarted. His mate is one of those humans, and when he falls, he falls HARD.
Jackie is a peacemaker in all things, but especially in her job as a wedding planner. She was on her way to Pine Valley for a destination wedding with one of the worst Bridezillas ever. Jackie puts up with a lot, … until the little witch tries to control Jackie’s choice in friends. In Jackie’s opinion, there is no reason to be prejudiced against those people on Bear Mountain, especially one growly handsome one. As to what happens: I won’t spoil, but I will say that Karma pays good to the good and wicked receives their just rewards.

DESIRED ON BEAR MOUNTAIN is the fourth book in the Bear Mountain Shifters series. Though it stands on its own, I think it would be stronger if you have read the full series.
Why, oh why, do so many shifters (and humans) try to tell fate they know better who their mate should be? Wyatt puts up so much of a wall he almost misses the boat…err... flight!
In the end, this is a romance, and they are destined to be together. I loved that the mating pull was irresistible even for the human. I loved that Lacey was strong and sassy. She was the perfect mate for a hardheaded alpha flightboy!
~~~~~~~~~
FATED ON BEAR MOUNTAIN is the fifth book in the Bear Mountain Shifters series. Though each will stand on its own, I think it would be stronger if you have read the full series.
I love when we have a stranger with secrets who is the perfect mate for a beloved community icon. Poppy is that paragon within the Bear Mountain Clan and Kent is an orphan bear raised by wolves.
I took off one star for the fight scenes that are unfathomably unrealistic. For example, when Poppy first meets Kent with Scott, she and the two men are having a conversation in the middle of a bar fight and the townspeople seem to just stand back while the bears decide what they should do. Then this tiny little woman drags a big old bear of a man through the crowd, and nobody protests or tries to stop them. I get it; Getting bogged down in the bar fight wasn’t instrumental to the story, but this was beyond this martial artist’s ability to suspend all reality… and it’s not the only instance. Still, I took off only one star for fight scenes, because that wasn’t the most important part of the story.
What was important, then? Romance, emotion, and community. I loved the slow release of information regarding Kent’s past. I also loved that Poppy and Kent had insta-attraction, but slow(ish) realization of each being the other’s mate.
It looks like this is the end of the Bear Mountain Shifters series, but we may next be going to Wolf Mountain. So, perhaps we’ll see more of these bears, their mates, and their cubs.
Note: While I received this book as a gifted ARC via Booksprout, my opinions are my own and are given freely.
