IDK why... but I really liked this story.
Shila and Koll are great characters. Koll is the loner.. the outcast in his own village because of his size. Every year, the men in his village find ladies to hole up with all winter and get it on.. come summer time, if you like eachother, you can get to making babies.. if not, you move on to next winter... it's like a Whore's Paradise.
Shila is a Frost Bear.. it's kinda like a super charged Polar Bear. A number of years ago, she lost her mate and her unb...more

Koll makes his yearly journey on the cold planet of Jensen to find a single female who might accept him enough to want to live the manditory period of cohabitation with the goal of getting married. Finding Shila, a stranger, unconscious and obviously running from someone or something he brings her home with him. She's beautiful, strong, confident, and above all willing to consider him as a mate. He has the winter season to show her why he is worthy of being her mate. But Shila has a secret and t...more
In the introduction Allie Ritch writes: This is one for all the people who have ever struggled to fit in. It describes the main male character Koll well as he's a bear of a man towering over all others in his small village, but despite his stature he has a centre soft like that of a teddy bear.
His size intimidates the men and women around him, making it near impossible for him to find a mate and not just out of his village but also in the villages around his. On his way back from another failed...more

Wow! This book is a knockout!
Usually do my shopping on Amazon,but periodically check out other sites. Found this one on allromanceebooks.com , in their top 10 books right now.
Set on an arctic planet, Koll is somewhat out of place. He is a big man, having difficulty finding a woman not intimidated by his size and disposition. He finds and rescues Shila, a beautiful woman who happens to be proportionately larger than average.

I was quite surprised by this short and sexy book. The heat between the characters starts pretty quickly, but I didn't feel like it was rushed due to the setting of the story.
Both the hero/heroine are very likeable, and there is just enough added tension from the bad guys to make this a story worthy of reading late into the night.
I will be looking for my books by Allie Ritch.

This was a lovely Saturday morning read. Koll is a big gruff male that has a lot of love bottled up inside just waiting for a willing woman to accept him. He practically stumbles over his perfect woman and the story goes on from there.
The sex was hard and hot. I really enjoyed this short story.

For a short book, I thought the author packed in plenty of hawt scenes. I did not feel cheated in the sex department! I liked the gruff and taciturn Koll and his relationship with Shila. It only made me a little sad I couldn't have my own frost bear :-).

Really great tale about a human finding a bear shifter mate. Had a futuristic "clan of the cave bear" feel to it. The sex was super exciting and numerous. It's classified as PNR and scifi, but it was mostly PNR. Scifi elements were just grazed over.
This was a good short story. Usually they seem rushed or unsatisfying, but this one was really good. Loved the characters.
