Zach — Ruby Shae

Curvy girl, Rory Jordan, is done with men. After suffering for months with a verbally abusive ex, and nearly losing her identity in the process, she never wants to go on a date again. Not even with the tall, handsome stranger she can't seem to forget.

Friendly, easygoing, black bear shifter, Zach Hernden, is shocked when he finds his mate in the popular dance club owned by his clan. Sadly, she refuses to go out with him, and he doesn't immediately have time to try and change her mind.

Not one to give up, Zach tracks down Rory, but mending his mate's damaged heart won't be easy. Especially when she recognizes similarities between him and her ex. When Rory realizes her terrible mistake, she has a lot of apologizing to do, but will Zach forgive her, or will she be too late?
