Married Off to the Bear

Bruno Bears Crime Family, Book 1

By: Ruby Knoxx

Narrated by: Stephen L. Vernon

The family is forcing me to marry the one mobster I don’t want.

Nobody (including him) knows that he’s my baby’s daddy.

He rejected me years ago, because I’m half his age and too naïve for him.

The problem is: If I refuse to marry him, my life will be like hell.

I grew up in this family, and I know who I’m dealing with.

I know that blood and murder are part of his job.

And now he has a new job: to be my mate and a dad to our little boy.

But I don’t think the red-hot, desirous look in his eyes is part of the job description.

Pretending to have a happy marriage with him is an exquisite form of torture.

I have always sensed that there is something else underneath the harsh exterior.

That the most primal bear instincts in him are to love and protect.

But I can’t let myself believe that it is me that he wants to love and protect.

Because believing that would break me again….

This secret baby, rejected mates shifter romance is part of the Bruno Bears Crime Family series.

The Bruno Bears Crime Family is ruled by the traditional values of the Italian mafia. Blood, torture, and darkness rule the lives of its members. But light comes in the form of the primal needs and desires that bear shifters cannot escape…to find a mate, to protect them and keep them safe at all costs.
