Publisher's Summary:
IVY
The world has moved on, but Ivy just can't. Besides, she has everything she needs on her sustainable-living wooded homestead, and no desire to brave this grim new world.
Until the day a massive bear chases her into an isolated cabin and she discovers she's not alone.
With a giant bear prowling outside and a gruff, bearded, half-naked savage inside, Ivy finds herself cornered. The man, who calls himself Caleb, says he'll take her home, but she doesn't trust him, his offer, or herself with this giant, bronzed, mountain of a man.
He might be able to protect her from the sinister enemies lurking outside - but who is going to protect her from Caleb?
CALEB
Shifter by nature, drifter by choice, Caleb is uniquely designed to survive in this dark, new hell-on-earth, where the rule of law has been replaced by brute strength.
His scars may be deep but his secrets are deeper, and until he meets feisty, sinfully curvy Ivy one fateful afternoon, he's not sure there's much left worth surviving for.
Finding himself unable to resist the tempting, scrumptious morsel who lands on his doorstep, he realizes she's the one he's been craving, and she's more than worth fighting for.
Caleb is determined to keep her safe from everything dark and dangerous outside. But can he save Ivy from herself?
(This is a stand-alone, no cliffhanger, with an HEA!)

Good post-apocalyptic shift romance :)
3-3.5 stars
This was a good story. I liked Ivy and Caleb and enjoyed their story. In this story, the world has gone through and apocalyptic event. Instead of zombies, some people turned into animalistic cannibals.
Ivy lives in a small house in the wilderness. Her father was a nature photographer and a survivalist, making his home totally self sufficient so if civilization ended he'd have what he needed. He died before the crash but Ivy was able to live well in his home, away from other survivors of the catastrophe.
Caleb is a bear shifter that's being hunted by a crazy man. He recently came back to the area he grew up in, looking for his brother. Caleb found an old cabin he started staying in but didn't realize Ivy lived so close.
Ivy is foraging for strawberries in the woods when she encounters a bear. She runs for it and injures her ankle. She can't make it back to her home so she takes shelter in an old cabin she knows of. That old cabin happens to be the one Caleb is staying in so he (being the bear) changes shape and goes inside. Ivy is freaked but Caleb is patient with her and gets her trust. He helps her with her ankle and tries to take her back to her house but they find that bad guys have taken over her house. They have some tough times while trying to figure out what to do about the bad guys. Their issues do give them some time to get to know each other though and the mutual attraction becomes something more. In the end, all is worked out for the best (with a bit of a surprise worked in there) and Ivy and Caleb happily start their HEA together.
This was an enjoyable story. Ivy was a good heroine...she had been put down a lot in the past so she had a bad self image but it wasn't annoyingly bad and outside fo that she was good. Caleb was a good hero and I had no real complaints about him. The story definitely wasn't perfect but it was good, quick read that I liked.
