Cuddle Bear (Paperback)

Paperback. Bear Pressley was seventeen when he went to prison for killing a cop. He was twenty-seven when he learned how to hold a woman.Ten years behind bars taught Bear how to survive-how to shut off his emotions, how to wait for revenge, how to plan for the day he'd settle the score with the best friend who betrayed him.What prison didn't teach him was how to love.Fresh out and desperate for money, Bear agrees to an unusual job: filling in for a professional cuddler at a Galentine's Day event for single women. The rules are simple-no sex, no emotions, no complications.Then he meets Kenyatta, an event planner, single mother, and the first woman to look at Bear like he's more than his worst mistake. Kenyatta sees something dangerous and tender in him. When Bear asks her to teach him how to do the job-how to touch, comfort, and connect-lines blur fast.But Kenyatta has a past of her own.She's the ex of D'Angelo-the man who set Bear up, stole his freedom, and ruined his life. And the child Bear has grown to love? She belongs to his enemy.Now Bear must choose: revenge on the man who took everything from him. or the family he never thought he'd deserve. This Valentine's Day, love isn't safe. But it might be worth the risk. This item is printed on demand.
