Bear Country (Black Peak Search and Rescue #2)

Wren Hadley does not stay anywhere long enough to need a reason to leave.

She has been following the northeast basin grizzly population for three seasons: one sow, two cubs, and a corridor that conservation law may or may not protect come spring.

She photographs them because animals are honest.

They do not perform. They are entirely what they are.

Boone Callahan was seven minutes out on the basin approach when he got her radio call. He was running before she finished the transmission. Eight years as an Army field medic taught him two things: how to close what the terrain opens, and how to wait and see if it holds.

What holds, in the twenty-four hours after a bear mauling in a remote shelter station, is more than the field closure. Wren has spent twelve years learning to be entirely still for the thing in front of her. She has applied that skill exclusively to animals. Boone is a new variable.

He is also a person who went to look at the bears when she was sleeping, noted the wildlife radio collar coordination gap, and packed her camera bags correctly in the dark.

Bear Country is the second book in the Black Peak Search and Rescue series. Standalone. Guaranteed HEA. Scorching heat.
