As is the norm for paranormal romances, especially those featuring shifters, Stolen by Her Bear fell in the category of the insta- love trope. As the characters featured (Saint and Holly) were fated mates, the attraction was instant.
What I found intriguing about the story is Saint kidnapping Holly out of revenge, only to have his plan backfiring. Despite being neighbors, they disliked each other. The cougar shifters with their pre-wedding celebrations were disturbing his need to sleep out during the winter. His request for them to keep down the noise did not go well, so he grabbed Holly. He thought she was the mate of the cougar shifter who had attacked him months ago. Instead, he found his fated mate, now sleep would now be the furthest thing from his mind.
I enjoyed the interactions with the characters, and I had fun getting to know Saint and Holly. Saint may be grumpy and reckless when his animal counterpart takes control. However, when one peels away the layers of this complex character one sees a brave individual who willingly admits his mistakes and attempts to make amends.
I liked how Holly found her voice and passion. It took her awhile to get to this point, but when she did, she became a force to reckon with.
Conclusion/Recommendation
I enjoyed this installment. The next book cannot come soon enough, as I am keen to revisit Black Ridge.This review was originally posted on Totally Addicted to Reading
