Grin and Bear It

Ursa Shifters, Book 3

De: Sam Hall

Narrado por: Sofia Lette, Dorje Swallow

These guys are smoking hot—and my students' uncles—and I swear I didn't mean to drunk dial them...

My life is a mess, and so is my house, but I'm a good teacher, right? So why are some of my best students going off the rails?

I meant to ring their uncles to let them know what was going on. But not like this. I drunkenly dump out all of my problems down the phone line, thinking it was my bestie on the other end.

But it was them. And now they want to fix everything, including me.

I'm terrified to let them in, wanting to claw back some kind of professional distance...but these guys? They think I'm their fated mate, and they'll do anything to make me happy.

Unfortunately, it doesn't take long to realize they've got a big, fat, hairy secret—one that could make an even bigger mess of my life.

This book is a standalone. HEA guaranteed.

the love they have for her

I love this story but it did drag on way too much I skipped some of the chapters there was no big fight in this it just her not coming around to the idea of them this way could have been way shorter

Great read!

The narration was amazing and the story was superb. Only downside is I felt like the story dragged with maybe a bit too much drawn out filler. I got bored at some points and actually found my self skimming a few chapters, not that what I was skipping was bad, my ADHD just needed me to actually get to the point. I love Natalie’s story and Ellie’s was great addition to the series and I loved how the author wrote them in a little bit, made me want to reread Natalie’s story. I did get a bit confused at some points because her friends nickname was Cole and one of her mates name is Cole and the narrator made the names sound almost the same so a few times I was confused before I actually hear the difference in her tone between the characters. (I may have misspelt some of the names, sorry). Overall the book was funny, smutty, and just the right amount of fluffy and dramatic.

Nope! Totally disrespectful of boundaries

The 'guys' were juvenile, overgrown frat bros with absolutely no respect for the fall out from their actions and how difficult they make her life at school or how their actions affect their wards. They have no regard for anything but the moment and their baser urges. I don't care how 'fated' of a mate they are, if someone pulled the same stuff on me they'd be out on their butts. I liked the first two books better.

Dear Author,

*** Spoiler***


I'm so sad. You changed a universal Bear Shifter "law". In books one/two you established that the female would not go into heat until she was claimed by all of her mates. This was a major focus of their story. In the book you changed that when she went into heat after being claimed by only one. This incontinency took me completely out of the world you created. Had you stayed consistent I would have given you a 5 star rating. Granted if this was read as a stand alone no one would know however, someone wanting to continue the series would be turned off. I really hope this is something you can fix.

Good shifter book

Keep it coming! I am loving this series and can not wait to continue listening to the rest of these!

Love ❤️ Love ❤️

Thought I might have a heart attack at one point in the story but Ellie surprised us all with her strength! What a great story and cast of awesome characters. I’m absolutely hooked on Bear shifters now! ❤️💕. Please say there will be more?!?

Not my kink, great portrayal of ADHD

Another good bear shifter reverse harem book in a very Aussie style, complete with the c word. The 'good girl' kink isn't for me but they appeared to do it well. Really great portrayal of ADHD, childhood development and some typical toxic behaviors as trauma responses. Highly spicy scenes.

I feel like I'm there!!

The world building is excellent and the narration is spot on. I feel like I am part of the story.

ohh this was fun!

very good blend between the RH Romance and the high stakes it can bring out in a normal life

Great story of acceptance

Ellie struggles accepting not only her body type but also her mental health struggles. She is doing her best when her mates come crashing into her life. They help her navigate things and learn to love herself and accept and work with her own limitations. There’s a lot to this one outside of just the relationship. I enjoyed this a lot.
