Trusting Her Bear by T. D. Edwards

There is not a line he won’t cross to protect her and the bond they are building.

Stephanie, a bear shifter, remains trapped in a cage of her past. She was ruthlessly forced into participating in the games of humans, a life-or-death chase that continues to haunt her even months after her rescue.
To try to face her fears, she convinced her best friend to go into business together in the place where she was taken, determined to find the person she was before being kidnapped. What she finds is a mate who stepped out of her dreams into real life, but she is hesitant to believe it can be real. She has secrets that she hides and traumas she relives every night in the dark.
Quinn has been fighting the shifters around him who try to include him in their crew of misfits. He runs an investigation firm and helps human women bring justice to those who abuse them, somehow hoping the good he does will erase the bad. He is a bear shifter who hides the past he’s ashamed of, but the appearance of two men whom he used to consider brothers forces him to confront it.
