Publisher's Summary:
Teddy, who is ironically enough a bear shifter, has finally found her mate. There's one big problem though. He doesn't like what he sees.
Reece never imagined his chosen mate would be a woman with extra curves, but all it takes is one taste to realize the benefits and turn his world upside down.
Their arguments are many, their lust for each other fiery, but while he's ready for the next step, Teddy keeps running. What will it take to win her trust and heart? And an even better question: Will they ever make it to a bed?
Members Reviews:
The big, bad wolf bites the dust.
I don't start off liking this hero. In fact, he's normally the guy/hero I don't go for. He's too everything: too good-looking (thinks he's as handsome as Brad Pitt), too cocky (well, I might have liked that), and too judgmental (this I didn't like).
When our hero Reece first sees Teddy, he recognizes her as his fated mate, one he's been waiting for but didn't think he'd ever find. He follows his nose to Teddy, only to be stopped in his tracks by her appearance. Teddy is short, curvy and round, a little plump pixie, and our hero doesn't do short and chubby, not Mr. Hot Dude's type at all.
Teddy sees the disdain and shock on his face, and it hurts her feelings. She thought she was comfortable with her body, having come to love it and all the curves. She's had lovers who have enjoyed the bounty of it too, but seeing this look on her mate's face brings back some old insecurities.
While I grew to like Reece, as he soon realizes how sexy a little extra can be, I really liked Teddy from the start. I liked her spunk, her attitude, her figure, and even her fears, those nagging doubts that seem like rude guests you've sent packing, only to come back sometimes uninvited, no matter how many times you tell them to get lost. Teddy is so loveable, and I found myself saying, You tell him, Teddy! Show him what he's missing.
Don't give up on Reece; he gets better. He sees the error of his ways and is soon doing the pursuing, wolf-style. I even found myself cheering for him, wanting him to make it right and to show Teddy how much he wants her, desires her, and loves her, just the way she is.
A pretty good short story; would have been better as a book.
'His Teddy Bear' is about a shifter named Teddy, a bear of course, who meets her destined mate Reece, a shifter wolf. While his arrogance is a bit off-putting at first (he is handsome, and knows it; women love him, and he knows it; he likes women as beautiful as he himself is, and chubby doesn't fall into that category), he soon makes up for it in his realization that Teddy is beautiful inside and out. Teddy, who we are told is very comfortable with her curves but is hurt by Reeces' obvious dislike for her figure, is afraid that Reece only wants her because of the the pull of being his mate, and she runs from the relationship.
The problem I have with that premise is the contradiction of the facts. She is confident and comfortable with her size, but the entire plot is based on her not believing he can love her because of her size. Her 'chubbiness' is brought to the forefront over and over, until the point it gets a little irritating.
