Lone Bear (Bear Mountain Book 1) Kindle Edition
Kate Sinclair is a waitress working in the small tourist town of Bear Mountain. She’s wanted Gage since their first meeting, but he’s never made a move even though she suspects he wants her too, despite her plus-sized curves. When she finds out his secret, she resolves to risk everything and ask him out.
Gage Adams, a grizzly bear shifter, has lived on his own for several years. The moment he saw Kate for the first time, he knew she was destined to be his mate. The problem? How to control his lust enough to earn her trust and tell her about his bear.
When Kate is put in danger, nothing will stop the bear from claiming and protecting his mate.

Lonely bear finds mate
Reviewed in Canada on 18 September 2020Verified Purchase
The attraction was instant but it took two years for them to act on it. Gage finally asks Kate out but before their big date the Sheriff intervenes. Events progress quickly and misunderstanding leads to more drama. They finally get things straightened out for a HEA.

Great sweet and steamy read but I wish it was longer!
Reviewed in the United States on 8 January 2016Verified Purchase
This is a very sweet book. I loved how Gage completely fell for Katie and was willing to do anything to have her but took it slow to make sure he didn't scare her away. The book is both steamy and sweet. He is one hot bear! My only negative comments would be that it could have gone so much deeper. The plot is awesome, the characters are great but the author did not take full advantage of the great setup to develop them further. Some examples (INCLUDES SPOILERS);
- Katie came to Bear Mountain because she ran off the camp site where she found her boyfriend having sex with her best friend. There could have been a lot more made out of the emotional turmoil that would have caused.
- Her misunderstanding Gage's words about finding his mate. He didn't come out and say that she was the mate he had been spending his entire adult life looking for and he wanted to be with her forever so instead she thinks that he is warning her off that he is looking for his perfect mate but doesn't mind fooling around with her while waiting. Typical romance novel misunderstanding and the angst can be so awesome because he really isn't cheating or not caring for her, it's all in her head so when the Happy Ever After ensues it is not ruined by his earlier indiscretions. This sequence should have been more drawn out - the author could have done so much more with it. Made her suffer for a few days and him too when he thought she broke up with him.
- The sheriff's stalking of Katie. The plot where he's not just following her and trying to rape her (or whatever his goal is), but once he is taken care of they find his home full of pictures of her and it's clear he's been all-out obsessed with her. I felt this part of the book was just glossed over when it could have been delved into and given it even more depth.
So all in all, I really loved this book and just wish there was MORE to it!

"Lone Bear" Bear Mountain book One by Ruby Shae...
This novella is a super, quick, sexy read of about sixty pages. "Lone Bear" is the first in a series of five novellas. This novella is the story of curvy waitress Kate Sinclair and the sexy giant of a man/grizzly bear shifter, Gage Adams.
Gage was so sweet and patient when trying to win over Kate's heart. But he was cautious as well, worrying how Kate would react to his "bear." Gage was strong, protective and instinctual as well as possessive, romantic, sweet and sexy when it came to Kate. Yup...he was perfect!
Kate was a lonely woman, insecure about her body. After camping with so called "friends," she finds herself abandoned in the town of Bear Mountain in Montana. Kate loves the town and proceeds to make it her home. Kate also has a crush on the loner of a giant, Gage Adams and is oblivious to his feelings towards her.
When Kate finds herself in danger, Gage does everything in his power, (which is a hell of a lot), to protect and assure she will always be safe. With him... There are no limits to what he will do to make that happen. Nope...none...
I enjoyed this story for what it was, a super short sexy story with likable characters.

Outstanding Book
Reviewed in the United States on 8 April 2015Verified Purchase
This is such a great book, that I look forward to going back and reading this story again and I am impatient to read the rest of this series right now. Hot, Hot, Hot, love scenes, a well written, creative and intriguing story about bear shifters, plus inventive, vivid characters, all on top of seriously sexy paranormal romance. This story is about Katie, who has had a crush on Gage for over the two years since she moved into town. Gage is a bear shifter, but doesn't know that Kate found out his secret a long time ago. That's why he's been worried about asking her out, even though he realizes that she is his mate. When the creepy, evil sheriff attacks Kate, she running through the snowy forrest to Gage's house because she trusts him to protect her. The is a wonderful story of how Gage does protect her, and they fall in love. All of that is combined into this fantastic series and make this book a "must-have"!!!! I didn't want to set it down....seriously!! Lol
