Gage (The Outcast Bears Book 2) by Emilia Hartley

  Finding His Mate

This is book 2 of The  Outcast Bear Series by Emilia Hartley who, as far as I’m concerned is one of the best authors writing about bear shifters.   The first book was fabulous and this one is just as good a read.  Whilst being part of a series it can be read as a standalone with no issues although, I personally prefer to read them in order as a series.  Kaylee has had a rough time when her partner basically stole their business and so her mum and dad suggested that she have a holiday and regroup. She’s standing in a shop one minute being bitten by  a man and she runs out when he is looking elsewhere. gage is a bear shifter and general good guy who cares.  He sees a young coyote pup scared in an alleyway and he takes it home as he remembers hearing about someone being shifted by force the other day and knows he can help the pup learn some shifter rules/tricks to survive and control their shifting.  His bear also recognises the pup and although he has no idea who she is, his bear knows she is very important to them.  This is a beautifully sweet story of love between Kaylee and Gage that I really enjoyed. They are two very engaging characters that Emilia has created for us.   This is a fabulous part of the series and sees gage make the decision whether he is going to leave or not and also when he finds his mate whom he has longed to find.  A great story and I’m now really looking forward to book 3 of the bear shifters in The Outcast Bear Series. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
