Unbearable — C.D. Gorri

Can an ex-Alpha and his housekeeper find common ground when the kids are all grown?The Barvale Clan Den has been a place of refuge for all members of the Bear Shifter Clan in good standing since Iggy Devlin's great-grandfather built the place. But with his cubs all grown, and his retirement kicking in, the old Black Bear just can't seem to settle. It doesn't help that wherever he goes, she's there! Always underfoot, er, claw. Clary Aylin has been the Devlin family housekeeper since her mate died when she was barely out of her twenties. With no cubs of her own, watching those boys grow and having a hand in raising them was one of the greatest pleasures of her life. She's kept her feelings for their father under wraps for decades, but what's she going to do now that the kids are all gone and all that's left is the sexy, growly curmudgeon of a Bear himself? Iggy Devlin has never looked at her as anything other than a maid. Is he capable of change or are some things too ingrained? Clary has a decision to make. Tell him the truth or quit her job. But will leaving prove unbearable for this smitten Sow?
