All Gilby wants is to find a female who will spend the mating season with him. Yes, he's short. And yes, he talks too much and doesn't often watch what he says. But he has a lot to offer.Rejected by her fellow shifters because she can't change into a frost bear, Miksa travels to the clawless people's village to look for a mate. With his sexy scent and good humor, could Gilby be the male for her? Can he help her unlock the magic that will let her shift?Love comes in all different shapes and sizes, and sometimes it even has claws.And also in this volume is the bonus story "Breeding Season." For the Children of Nanook - shifters who can take the form of the deadly frost bear - passions run high during breeding season. Desna has already chosen the mate of her heart, but can Karpok defeat the male who wants to take her from him?(In Season was previously published by Liquid Silver Books. This work has been revised and re-edited. The short story "Breeding Season" has previously been released in anthologies.)
