Author's Book Description : Bear shifter Clover is steaming mad and ready to be fitted with a new pair of bear skin boots. How dare the sexy head of security for the McCoy clan forbid her younger sister from marrying his brother? His brother knocked the girl up and he’s going to do right by her, or her name isn’t Clover Lulabelle Movie Star Windwalker Jones – which, unfortunately, it is. (Her parents were hippies.)
His. Clover is hotheaded, impulsive, demanding – and she’s his. Sam McCoy knows it the second he lays eyes on her. Sure, he’s arrested most of the members of her family at one time or another, and now she’s blaming him for ruining her younger sister’s life – details, right? Sam has a secret weapon – he gets her a marketing job at his family’s jelly and jam factory, which will help her retain custody of her brother and sisters. Late nights at the office and some sexy honey samplings lead to even sexier times, and the possibility of a future – until Clover’s past comes back to haunt her and threatens to tear apart the family she’s fought to save.
My Book Review : 3 out of 5 stars. Clover loves her family. She would do anything for them. Even if they are petty criminals kids who she's hoping to reform. Even if it means making an "enemy" of Sam--one of the nicest guys is town. But with a little luck Sam might "reform" her and her life instead...
This was a sweet novel and it has the typical banter sassiness that Ms. St. Clair likes to throw in. Yet, while I liked the plot and its characters, I found the romance between Sam and Clover a bit lacking. I mean I liked them together but because Clover is in her own head most of the novel dealing with the issues surrounding her and her family I found her a bit restrained when it came to her feelings.
Overall, though, I'd still recommend this novel to anyone looking for a sweetly fun paranormal romance.

Book Teaser(s) :
Blue was standing there. “We’d like you to take a tour of the property,” she said. “We need to pick out some good spots before the photographer gets here.”For more information on this book, series, and/or any other books by Georgette, then please check out her website.
“Good plan,” Clover agreed.
She followed Blue outside, hoping that her stomach wouldn’t rumble too loudly… and stopped when she saw that Sam was sitting in the driver’s seat of a jeep that was parked outside the front door.
He grinned at her as she slowly walked up to the jeep. “Goodness, I didn’t know we needed a chauffeur,” she said, keeping her tone polite for Blue but shooting Sam a quick, deadly glare.
“And a bodyguard,” Sam said with a smug smile. “There’s all kinds of dangers out there on a blueberry farm.”
“Oh, sit in the front, dear,” Blue said, climbing into the back and shutting her door.
The jeep really wasn’t built for a big bear shifter like Sam – he overflowed in his seat and pressed up against her when she climbed in. Surely he must know that – had he planned this on purpose?
The warm, solid feel of him sent ripples of sensation pulsing through her body. He was wearing that cologne again, faint but unmistakable. She shifted in her seat and pressed up against the door, which was uncomfortable but at least she wasn’t crushing up against Sam.
“I packed a couple of picnic baskets for us so we can all stop and eat,” Sam said. “Got some of my blueberry pie in there.”
Blueberry pie. Damn the man, he was fiendishly clever. ~ within Chapter 4
