About this book

Goldie grew up hearing tales of the beasts lurking in the shadowed woods, mythical creatures with fangs, fur, and the strength of a hundred men. She never expected the legends to be real, let alone that she had been the silent focus of their obsession for years. While the village feared the monsters, these primal protectors were busy watching over her, waiting for the perfect moment to claim what they had always considered theirs.

When Goldie finally finds herself alone, she realizes she is the center of a dangerous, insatiable hunt. Three massive, humanoid bears have emerged from the wilderness, and they have no intention of letting her go. This is a dark, steamy reimagining of a classic fairytale where the monsters are not the villains, but devoted possessive mates ready to provide, protect, and dominate.

If you are craving a spicy paranormal romance that pushes the boundaries of the genre, this MFMM monster story delivers the perfect blend of heat and heart. With themes of fated mates, stalking, and protective instincts, it is an addictive addition to the Monsters and Beauties series. Prepare to fall for these three bears in a tale where the fairytale ending is far more wicked than you ever imagined.

Enjoyable Book

I enjoyed this story about Goldie (human woman) and Bear, Bruin and Ursid (humanoid bear creatures). They were all likeable. This was a take on the Goldilocks and the Three Bears story. They first met when Goldie was very young and got lost in the woods. They found her and Bruin went up to her, held out his hand, she took it and he took her home (the other two remained hidden but she saw them after she got home). The three MMCs were brothers and this is a MFMM story. They met Goldie again after...
