Synopsis (Goodreads):

A small-town sheriff + a wrongly accused BBW on the run + deadly enemies and dangerous passions = a sizzling forbidden love!

Bear shifter and small-town sheriff Axl Tanner isn't looking for trouble or temptation when he walks into Marge's Diner, but he discovers two things at a glance. First: the smoking hot waitress with flaming red hair and curves in all the right places is also the woman on the wanted poster back in his office. Second: she's his mate!

Framed for a crime she didn't commit and running from dangerous enemies, curvy Tara Malloy is waiting tables in a truck-stop diner while trying to figure out how to clear her name and get her life back. The last thing she needs is to get involved with a drop-dead-sexy sheriff and his entire bear clan. But she's always been a sucker for a man in uniform ...

Axl knows he shouldn't fall for the sexy fugitive; Tara knows better than to fall for a cop. But flaming desire pulls them together, and Axl can't leave his mate to face her enemies alone. Can they overcome their differences and find the love they've been dreaming of ... or will Tara's deadly past claim both their lives? 

Thoughts on Sheriff Bear: I've been reading a lot of bear shifter books lately. Which is kinda cool because bears can be pretty rough and tumble. (Don't tell, but as much as I enjoy the bears, werewolves still hold top honors in my heart.)

This book gives us an upstanding sheriff and a woman on the run. Throw in a cantankerous older brother (of the bear variety) and a couple of hitmen and you have a recipe for romance. Wait. No. You have a recipe for action. The romance is a side effect of a bear meeting his destined mate. And sexy times are a side effect of the romance.

It's all interconnected, my friends.

Enjoyable. I have to admit I want to see if the strong, silent bear in the mountains finds someone to love. I mean, I figure that Axl's brothers and cousins are set, but Gannon? Is he going to get a lady friend? Or a dude friend? I'm open to either. I like the non-verbal ones.
