Publisher's summary

Matt Barns is on a mission. The goal of this mission? Find a mate before his broken bear drives him into madness. He knows exactly what he's looking for, but when his bear finally settles for a mate, she dumps his world upside down. She's funny, sure, but other than that, she's not his type in any way. Or so he thought, because Willa is breaking down his walls and opening his eyes to a new life he thought he might never find.

Willamena Madden: smart-mouthed, fun-loving, loyal-to-a-fault, proud nerd and fragile human. She's also somehow become the potential mate to a grizzly shifter. A shifter? She feels sorry for the critters and wishes humans would leave them alone, but Matt is proving he doesn't need her pity. He's a sexy, scarred up, growly beast-man, and she's thinking he could be the one to finally take her V-card. But Matt's hot and cold, and one of her friends is after a bucket-list werebear diddle with the man Willa's falling for. And if that isn't stressful enough, Matt's Gray Back Crew is a loosely knit community of maniacs.

Matt feels important, but Willa has never been in more danger. If she can't find a way to survive his people, she'll have to go back to her safe life without her Gray Back Bad Bear.

Brand new series from T. S. Joyce. Can be heard as a standalone series. No cliffhangers. Just a crew of lumberjack bad bear shifters, and the women strong enough to love them.

Content Warning: explicit love scenes, naughty language, and piles of sexy shifter secrets. Adult-only bear shifter romance.

Explosive! Shocking! Brilliant!

Love! Wow did I love these two..well I mean Willa because she makes the book! But Matt was good too. I always wondered how these two got together. I was shocked and surprised on how uninterested they were until later. I loved listening to this and meeting the other Graybacks. Especially Easton. I always wondered about the limp and now I know. I can see why this series is so popular. I am excited for more!

My fave

My favorite though I be read all that I could find. I love Willa and her worms and that trailer and mouse that aren’t in this particular book. I think I’ve read these like 3x so far over the years. It’s only getting 4 because it was 3 1/2 hours 😋 not long enough for an awesome story

Matt ♥ Willa!

This is book #1 of #7 in the Gray Back Bears Series, and book #11 of #48 in the Damon’s Mountains Universe Series. If the Ashe Crew are the outcasts, the Gray Back Crew are the rejects. If Matt didn’t redeemed himself in the last book, he will for sure steal your feels in this one. Like all the other broken bears in his crew, he feels unworthy of love and a mate, however, that is exactly what he wants more than anything. Willa is the perfect match for him. She is a dorky, accident prone, bad@ss, and I love her! I also love Easton! He reminds me of Kellen, except darker. He has a lot of secrets he is hiding, but when he loves, he loves with all his heart. This is a much bloodier series in comparrison to the Saw Bears. These guys like to “bleed” each other often. This may seem harsh on the surface, but it is done with love. It’s done to help keep their unstable bears from crossing the point of no return. It’s messy but effective. T.S. Joyce and Mackenzie Harte continue their partnership into the next series. I can’t wait for more. I listened to this through Audible Escape.

Change

Vacation going wrong, but at the same time so right: being changed into a bear and loosing her human side was a shock, but the acceptance of her new friends was wonderful.

Favorite T.S. Joyce book

Have loved this book for years. LOVE this performance. This is one I've read more than a dozen times and I'm sure its one I'll listen to just as many.

My first Shift book I've ever read

T.S. Joyce was the first ever sitter book I've ever read on Kindle and I have been hooked ever since; so naturally since I found it great on Audible I purchased the whole series.

Gray Back Bad Bear

I loved this story, nerd meets bad bear! Plot twist at end, loved it, though sad for Easton. I want wait to read his story. I recommend reading prior books , especially Saw Bears series before starting this one.

Love Me Some TS Joyce!

I have read all of TS Joyce's books MULTIPLE times and was giddy to see them hit Audible. I don't love the narration, I don't think she does the books justice and did take away from the ability to connect to the characters.

I need Harrison's story on audio, though. Hopefully with a different narrator. Jill Redfield, perhaps?? :o)
