**ARC received in exchange for an honest review**As a beta read for Lila, I got to read this long before it was released to the public. It's no secret that I am a supporter of Lila Felix's work, and love her to pieces. Her work integrity never ceases to amaze me. When she pitched the idea of a paranormal shifter, I squealed. I mean, come on, my fav author combining with one of my fav genre's?? Yes please. Lila stepped out of her comfort zone for her first ever PNR.And she blew it away.Echo is a black bear, an anomally - so she thinks, stuck in a world of grizzlies. She knows no other life other than cooking, cleaning, slaving after the grizzlies as her Alpha demands. She is given nothing, stealing food to keep her belly full. The only peace she has is when she shifts. One moment, changes her world.Hawke, Alpha of all bears, hears of Echo and sets out to find her. It's his duty to protect his bears, especially his own kind. Overcome with responsibilities, Hawke must balance his crazy life  of being a new Alpha, teaching Echo about their kinds history, & attempted take-overs. He's about to crack under the pressure unless he can find some peace.The way that Lila's mind works is amazing to me, as busy as her personal life is, she still finds way to send her readers into a tailspin of shock with the stories she comes up with. If you haven't read Burden, do so. I guarantee you will fall in love with the boys from the bayou the same way I did. Burden tops the charts as one of my all time favorites from Lila Felix.
