When one night of passion becomes something neither of them could have ever predicted.


Ivy Greene is a strong, confident single mother who, honestly, doesn’t need any help. She’s got this. All except for one thing. Her five-year-old son, Lincoln, has a terrible secret that she’s determined to keep until the day she dies. She’d do anything for her son. Including traveling to Spokane to search for more information about people like her son. While she’s there, she crosses paths with someone who was supposed to be a one-night stand. Little did she know, he’s playing for keeps.


Maxim Malashovik is the oldest of four boys. He’s fun loving, kind, thoughtful, and, oh yeah, a bear shifter. There’s nothing he wouldn’t do for the people he loves. And suddenly, inexplicably, he finds he has to add a person to that list after just one night with her. Why couldn’t he have fallen for somebody who wanted him back? Or even left her number after their one-night stand.


This is book 3 in "The Secret Shifters of Spokane" Series, but can also be read as a standalone. No cliffhangers.
For adults only.

This is a delightful story about family love and loyalty, new beginnings and understanding. Full of love, joy and happiness. Such believable characters and a great plot. I read it in one take from beginning to the end. Just couldn't put it down. Ready for book #2. Well done!

This review is written after reading and listening to this book.

This is the third book in a series I previously read but which I am enjoying listening to. Although all the stories are standalone I would recommend listening to them in order.

The last thing Ivy Greene wants is a long-term relationship. She's been hurt before and has one goal in life to protect herself and her son from further pain after being betrayed by her son's father. So when she meets Maxim at a bar she doesn't want anything but a few hours of his company. Maxim, however, recognizes that Ivy is his Mate, the only one for him. But Ivy doesn't make it easy for him as she slips away whilst he's sleeping.

For six months, Max has thought about Ivy and how he might find her again but then fate came to his aid, he's a firefighter and he and his crew responded to a traffic accident where they rescued Ivy and Linc her 5-year-old. But again she slipped away, but this time she and Linc came back to thank Max for saving their lives.

Ivy has a secret one she doesn't want to share but when Maxim helps Linc he comes closer to winning her heart. When he helps a second time, she decides to give them a chance and try for more. But when they are kidnapped by Navuka, Maxim enlists the aid of his whole family to try to save them but will he be in time?

The narration of this book by Craig A. Hart is well done and certainly added to my enjoyment of this story.

I enjoyed reading this book and it had more adventure than the other romance novels. I liked it gave everyone a place in the book. I know that parents are not to be involved but sometimes a grandpa or grandma can be bad to the bones. It is why the males or females are strong.

Ivy just wanted a one-night stand, but oh man what a man! 6 months have gone by and I still can't forget that wild night it's hiding in the back of my head. So when I move to Spokane and my sweet little boy is rescued by a first responder, I am flabbergasted by what I see. It's him and he knows what no one should? Ivy is not ready to give her heart to anyone, but her son Linc.

Maxim is the oldest of the 4 Malashovik brothers who emigrated from Belarus to the States with their parents fleeing the unrest against shifters. Now Maxim sees that beautiful mermaid he has never forgotten since that one night, so much so, that he hasn't been with another, but she's not alone, she apparently is a mother to a little cub. Can Maxim save the cub from the same evil that hurt his brother Anton?

Lots of mystery, family togetherness, intrigue and hot passion.

With half the brothers mated, Maxim didn't expect to be next. However, a one night stand is back with a secret. When Maxim helps her son he is close to winning her heart. The second time he does it she is willing to try for more. But after they are kidnapped by Navuka, Maxim calls in the whole family to try to save them. I love Maxim's parents! They are so loving and patient. I LOVE this series and am on pins and needles waiting for Antone's story. Don't miss these fierce and loving men and their mates.

Ivy Greene isn't looking for any long-term relationship. She needs to protect herself and her son from the pain of love lost or betrayed. Maxim Malashovik, however quickly realizes that Ivy is the One for him. He's got his work cut out for him, though, with Ivy. Ivy certainly puts up a fight, resisting Maxim, but these Malashovik boys are relentless when they've made up their mind. Maxim, most of all. I love these characters! Ivy, for being so protective of her son, Linc. Maxim, for being super protective of all those he loves - Ivy and Linc in particular - yet not smothering. The agents for Navuka are still watching, however; looking for a way to retrieve those they lost. Never turn your back on this evil! This is scary stuff, but get these Malashoviks riled up and they're a force to be reckoned with! A superb book with an awesome ending! One more brother to go...I'm eagerly waiting for it!

Because I can already smell how good you'll taste here. And I am hungry for you. Holy Mother Nature. “You’re a - oh my God - a bear. Man bear. Bear man. You’re a man who is a bear. What in the *BEEP* is going on here? HOLY MOTHER NATURE IS RIGHT!!! This is such a FURNOMENAL story!! Okay, every single one of them is a SHIFTACULAR book and this one continues that PAWFECTLY!!!!! Knowing Maxim a bit from the other books in no way prepared me for REALLY knowing him, so I can TOTALLY sympathize with Ivy on that one! But who knew I would fall for ALL of them THIS HARD!!! Once again, Selena has let me in to peek into her window and get a glimpse of her life, because that is exactly what it feels like! Her characters are so real, their lives so "normal" excepting the bear shifter part, but even that feels normal & right! Her writing is fresh, hilarious, touching, and completely surrounds me, absorbing me into the story as deep as is possible without actually, really being there to see, hear, live, experience it all in person! I definitely felt it all as if I was there though! I bawled more times I could count - happy & sad tears! But I dare you to read this and NOT get attached to little Linc! He's so BEARY adorable!! I love how authentically Belarusian it is too! In fact sometimes it cracks me up how they want to say something but can't find the English words for it! Selena has very quickly become one of my favorite authors! With her ability to write every book differently, in a unique style that perfectly portrays each character's own personality & style, the way I keep thinking about it long after I finish it, the way I laugh, cry, fret, worry, anger, care & love all of the characters, the way their story becomes mine, the way I become the characters & their story, all shouts loudly at just how incredibly talented Selena is, as well as how truly, exceptionally gifted she is!! It is a true BEARRIAGE of ALL Things GRRRREAT & small, HOT & naughty, heart-breaking & heart-melting! Hey there, Andre. I am not called Andre. I am called Maxim. But I do not mind what you call me, Ariel. I respond to many names. Like ‘oh God’, ‘more’, ‘yes’, ‘just like that’, ‘Jesus-yes-don’t-stop’. Da! DOUBLE DA!

I was happy to finally read book 3 in this series. This is an interesting storyline, filled with family, hardships and love. Ms Scott is an astute storyteller: her characters are well developed and rounded. There is some underlying humour in this story, which made me smile. I won't elaborate on this, as it is pivital to the story. Very happy to recommend and read this book.
