A Baby for the Bear — Jenika Snow

February Ary Felina, an ocelot shifter, decided getting drunk on her Dirty Thirty birthday was a bad idea. But at the end of the night, she was in Charlie Wylde's bed, the intimidating alpha bear shifter in the town of Sweet Water.
But then the unthinkable happened. The contraception broke during their wild, passionate night, and Ary found herself knocked up by the possessive, growly shifter.
When Charlie saw Ary for the first time, he instantly wanted her. The bear in him needed to mark and claim her until everyone knew she belonged to him. And so he made that happen—took her to his home and claimed every part of her in the raw, animalistic way of his kind.
She might've thought this was a one-off night of pleasure… but she was wrong. He wasn't letting her go, especially not now that she carried his baby.
