Bear Seeking Bride: Trent by Ruby Shae


Blurb:
  Down on her luck, curvy chef Olive Campbell has reached the bottom of the barrel. She has no job, no money, no boyfriend and no prospects. The way things are going, she'll never get the chance to work with food again. When she sees an ad asking for a mail order bride who can cook, it seems like her luck is beginning to change.

Grumpy, woman-hating, grizzly bear shifter Trent Mallory can't believe the nerve of his brothers. They might be lucky in love, but that gives them no right to place an ad searching for a bride on his behalf. He may be lonely, but he'll take a lifetime of loneliness over being faced with trusting a woman again.

Angry and confused by his brothers' betrayal, and the revival of long buried feelings, Trent decides to prove once and for all he's better off alone. His plan works as expected, but after meeting Olive, he can't deny his desire for a life filled with love. Thanks to his brothers, he has two weeks to apologize and convince his curvy mate to marry him.


My Review: 5 Stars!
I have been anxiously awaiting Trent's story since the first Bear Canyon Bride book, Bear Seeking Bride: Travis. Trent has watched both his brothers find their mates and settle down but he has no interest in following in their path. After being betrayed by his fiance and suffering a horrific injury that has permanently crippled him, he doesn't trust woman anymore. He's angry, bitter and lonely but has convinced himself that he doesn't need anyone. His brothers however, have other plans for him. Unbeknownst to him they place an ad in the paper looking for a mail order bride for him. They are convinced that if he finds his mate he will finally be able to be happy again. 

Olive is jobless, boyfriend-less and broke. She has been blacklisted as a chef and is out of options. After seeing Trent's ad in the paper something draws her to him so she decides to contact him. I loved Olive, even though she has had her own traumatic experience she still manages to keep hope in her heart.

I LOVED this book! It's a wonderful story of love and forgiveness. At their first meeting Trent is overwhelmed by emotions that he hasn't felt in a long time and panics. In an effort to push her away he is unbelievably cruel to Olive and my heart broke for her for the pain that she felt. After fleeing his house in tears Trent finally realizes what kind of person that he has become and he doesn't want to be like that anymore. He and his bear are drawn to Olive in a way that they have never been before. She makes him want to be a better person and he realizes that he will do anything to get her back. As they shared their past experiences with each other I cried for both of them. Full of emotion, love and passion this was by far my favorite out of the series. If you are looking for a quick, fun read full of deliciously sexy bear shifters, I highly recommend this whole series!
