Grizzly Flying Free (Air Bear Shifters, #2)

World-renowned dancer Lexi Shaffer desperately needs a chance to start over. After a quick rise to fame thanks to a Broadway run and a celebrity boyfriend, she finds herself fending off paparazzi at every turn. When her rich and famous lover cheats on her in a spectacularly public manner, she decides enough is enough. Wanting nothing more than to go off the grid, she escapes to Alaska, where she can leave the glitz and glamour of New York City far behind.

But when the father of one of her students turns out to be very single and very irresistible, Lexi finds herself unable to avoid mixing business and pleasure. She’s all ready to give romance another shot, until she discovers that there’s much more to this captivating man than meets the eye… Grizzly shifter Anderson Rowe is doing pretty well—judging by outward appearances. He has a job he loves as a pilot for an Alaskan tour company, a place of respect in his tight-knit clan, and a beautiful daughter he adores more than life itself. But deep down, Anderson struggles with profound, aching loneliness. Since tragedy took his wife from him over six years ago, his heart has been held captive by guilt and grief. A prisoner of his own pain, he hasn’t been able to bring himself to take a chance on love again. That all changes when Lexi Shaffer walks into his life. What begins as a reluctant friendship soon blossoms into something more. But Anderson isn’t sure whether he can ever truly love again. Will Lexi have the courage to give romance another shot? And can Anderson break free from the walls of pain holding his heart captive? Find out in this steamy bear shifter romance. GRIZZLY FLYING FREE is part of Sloane Meyers' Air Bear Shifters Series.
