Sometimes, love is borne of joy and tears.

Following a devastating loss, Jared Emerson now spends his days at the potter’s wheel, quietly honing his craft and wondering what the future holds. As the holidays approach, he attends one of Bear Creek’s free concerts in the park and meets an intriguing bear shifter. Though he doesn’t realize it at the time, the brief encounter sets off a chain of events that will turn his entire world upside down.

While Rowan Kincaid enjoys his job at a local pub, he loves his seasonal role as one of Bear Creek’s famous dancing bears. One whiff of an enticing human stranger, however, leads to a convoluted search for his mate involving friends, relatives, and even the mayor! As clues come in, Rowan discovers that the man he’s looking for is right under his nose.

Bear Creek Memorial Day is a loss-to-love tale for fans of small town romance, shifters, and HEA’s. (Book five of the Holiday Mates series. Contains steamy MM content.)
