He watches everyone. He noticed her. 🐻

Pre-Order Now!

Hey babes!

Drawn by the Bear is available for pre-order, and I’m so excited to finally tell you about Drake and Everly!

There are men who work a room and men who read one.

Drake Voss has been reading The Claw for twelve years. He knows who’s had too many, who needs a cab, who just needs five minutes before they go home. He runs the door the way the best people run anything — on quiet attention and zero tolerance for what shouldn’t be there.

He’s forty-seven, broad-shouldered, silver at the temples. He has the kind of face that’s been lived in hard and looks better for it. He doesn’t do small talk. He doesn’t explain himself. And in twelve years, his bear has said one word about one person.

That word is mine.

Everly Marsh didn’t come to The Claw looking for anything. She came for Jess — for three weeks before the wedding, for one night of not being the responsible one. She’s a kindergarten teacher. She closes doors behind her. She nurses a single gin and tonic for forty-five minutes and watches her friends like someone who loves them completely and is also already calculating how everyone gets home.

She’s forty-four. She’s been steady and careful and self-contained for a decade, ever since the phone call that ended everything. She’s built a good life. Good lives don’t need to be complicated.

Then a stranger leans too close, Drake materializes out of nowhere, and one word sends that stranger walking.

She notices the word.

She notices him.

Two people who’ve already learned what it costs to lose the things that matter most.

One fated bond neither of them asked for.

And something dangerous circling at the edges of Greypaw that’s decided Everly is worth pursuing.

Drawn by the Bear is a standalone set in the Bears of the Rockies world. No cliffhanger. Full HEA. And a slow-burn that absolutely does not stay slow.

Can’t wait for you to meet them.

With love,

Peyton 🐻
