The Bear Necessities by B.N. Kasner

For three years Annie and Nathan Bowers have waited to see a positive pregnancy test. Annie is losing hope while all the women around her have no problem getting pregnant. She feels like a failure, no matter how many times Nathan says otherwise. As Annie pulls away, Nathan is trying his damnedest to save his mating. His wife means the world to him, losing her isn’t an option.

Everyone is wondering when Betty Callahan and Scott Harrison are going to finally become mates, including Scott himself. After moving in together, he thought mating bites were right around the corner. Nobody knows Betty’s first mate wasn’t the loving, tender man he appeared to be. In the dark corners of her mind, she worries Scott might end up breaking her heart. Scott’s at the end of his rope, with no clue how to win over the woman he loves.
