The Witness and the Bear

De: T. S. Joyce

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

**No cheating hero. Monogamous bear shifter romance.** Hannah Michaels is on the run, and the protection detail assigned to her case have her wondering who, or what, she’s trusting her life with. After testifying against a criminal with a long reach, her days are numbered if her handler, Jeremy, can’t find a safe place for her. Out of options and with nowhere to go, she’s dropped off in the Big Horn Mountains of Montana with a duffle bag of her belongings and little explanation. Jeremy swears she’ll be safe in this wilderness sanctuary, but when she meets Benson Riker, leader of the bear shifter clan of Big Horn Valley, she doesn’t feel safe at all. In fact, the man is just about as feral as they come. In a bout of epically bad timing, she accidentally vies to be mated to the alpha, and no matter how much she tries to escape the competition for Riker’s affection, he is having none of it. He cites upholding clan law as his reasons for wanting her to stay, but the hungry look in his eyes says it’s more personal than that. Weathering deep secrets and danger from all sides, she’ll have to decide if Riker is the shifter who deserves her heart. Content Warning: explicit love scenes and language. Adult only bear shifter romance.

Riker and Hannah

An exciting, entertaining and heartfelt story. I enjoyed going on this journey with Hannah and Riker.

TS Joyce

This book started me on the TS Joyce train about 6 years ago. I thrilled they coming out on Audible now! Read and listen to them all. They are a great fun

Good story!

Good story! I liked the whole secrecy of Hannah and why she was running. Plus her not knowing anything about shifters was great! I liked the connection between them. Look forward to reading more in the series.

Nice Intro Book

Saw this book/author recommended on a subreddit. I liked that I was able to listen to it for free with my level of audible membership; just in case you don't enjoy a book. I am not a fan of Virtual Voice, at least not for books with different perspectives and multiple characters. If the book was a non-fiction account of an event with one perspective, like a research paper, then Virtual Voice would be fine. At least when real people voice the characters, even when its just one person, there are different voices for each perspective and even the lines being said. Also, real people add feeling to what they say and how they say it, Virtual Voice is so monotone. And its funny how it pronounces words sometimes. Like 'jeans' comes out as 'jens'. I know there was another word but I didn't hear it as often.

As far as the book itself, its a quick listen, fast paced storyline. I hope the rest of the books the author has are longer as I do prefer a more in depth story. I think this may have been her first book which makes it's shorter read/listen completely understandable to me.

doesn't work

With virtual voice you can't tell when you switch characters until you're in the conversation and realize it doesn't make sense .
