I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.Jim is in Vegas to win Lady Luck back from his friend. Jim is a were-grizzly and his friend is a were-wolf. Lady Luck is a copper coin that they bought together and every year they have a bet to see who is going to own it for the year. He's just looking to have a good time and win back Lady Luck.Lillie is in town to have one last fling, she has a place to be in a week and she is letting off a little steam before then but she hasn't told her parents or anyone but her friend where she has gone.When Jim and Lillie meet, sparks fly and they end up spending the week together but Lillie is obviously keeping something to herself. Jim doesn't push but he starts to fall in love with her. He thinks Lillie feels the same way but on the day of the bet she leaves a note saying she has to be somewhere but she will be back.Now Jim is a very controlling bear and on the first day of his vacation, Damon took his phone and threw it away so he had to order a new one. It arrives the day of the bet and when he checks it he hears a message from a company that broker marriage contracts between bears. When he hears the message, he decides to go home to meet his future fiancée and to tell her that he can't keep his side of the contract. Who he finds is Lillie, it turns out that she is the female bear that he's supposed to get married to and she had the same idea, she was going to tell the bear who she was contracted to marry that she couldn't do it as she was in love with someone else.This is a light-hearted romance with supernatural characters. They are all like-able and charming, the story-line moves along at a good pace. The sex scenes are well-written with the right amount of heat without being smutty.It's a lovely start to what I think is going to be a brilliant series.
