Fate doesn’t use dating apps to pair true mates…except when it does.
Alpha Brad Galway is a hot successful lawyer and Beta of his Den with omegas throwing themselves at his feet. From the outside, it appears as though he has everything he could possibly desire. Inwardly, he has a bear clawing to get out—no longer willing to stand by and let his mate go unclaimed. But there’s a problem with his bear’s plan. Brad doesn’t know who or where he is, just that they crossed paths in an airport over a year ago. If he doesn’t figure out how to control his bear soon, he risks losing everything—including his life.
Human omega Gabe Rafferty is excited to start his new job as a professor of English Lit. Ever since a layover in an airport last year, he’s felt like his luck has changed. He can’t explain how or why…but something happened that day, and everything from that point was onward and upward. He just wishes he had someone to share it with.
When Gabe is talked into using a dating app, he isn’t expecting much until he stumbles onto profiles that are fixated on the TV series, Shifter World. And he definitely isn’t anticipating the smoldering alpha who recaptures that feeling he experienced at the airport. Sparks fly, feelings grow, and their worlds are turned upside down in the very best of ways, but is it too late for Brad’s bear?
Matched To His Bear is the second book in the sweet with knotty heat Dates of Our Lives, an M/M mpreg shifter dating app romance brought to you by the popular co-writing duo of Lorelei M Hart and Colbie Dunbar. It features a human who stumbles into a world he never knew existed thanks to a silly little soap opera, an alpha who is losing his humanity, a stalker bear who turns out to be more trouble than anyone could’ve suspected, and an adorable baby. If you like your shifters hawt, your omegas strong, your mpreg with heart, and your HEAs complete with true mates and a bundle of joy, one-click today
From Chapter 9
Omega Gabe’s POV
We’d arranged to meet at the indoor mini golf course. This was a glow-in-the-dark course which I’d heard about but never tried. I figured we get some laughs and avoid any possible uncomfortable silences which often happened when you were forced to sit opposite someone in a restaurant.
The course was themed and we could choose jungle, underwater, outer space, or forest. I was early as I hoped to be lounging casually near the entrance pretending to be immersed in a book when Brad arrived. But I’d forgotten the book and he had beaten me there.
“Hi,” I said shyly as I strolled over to him. Last time we’d seen one another, he’d been fondling me. So, did we shake on it, give one another a peck on the cheek, or shove our tongues down one another’s throat? A, B or C.
Brad placed a hand on the small of my back and pulled me to him. Option D. “Hi.”
“Hi.”
“I’ve played golf, because as a lawyer, a lot of business gets done on the course, but never done this. Hope I don’t embarrass myself.” He may have been talking golf but his eyes were raking over me. Damn this man was hot. If this wasn’t a family-friendly place, I’d drag him to the bathroom and have him fuck me senseless.
“Trust me, it’s not that hard.” I sounded as though I was an expert, but hadn’t played myself since I was kid. And hadn’t displayed any prowess even then. “And this is kind of fun. Everything glows and they give you 3D glasses so the experience comes alive.”
He nuzzled my ear. “If you say so.”
But I couldn’t reply. His warm breath on my ear stunned me into silence along with his aroma. It was as though it was tracing its wispy fingers over my face, memorizing it as a blind person would when meeting someone for the first time.
“F-Forest?” I stammered.
“Huh?” His eyes had a faraway look to them and his wary expression had me wonder what I’d said or done to prompt that.
“The theme.” I jerked my head toward the large images glowing on the wall behind the ticket booth.
“Ummm… let’s not. How about the jungle?”
“Fine.” I took out my wallet, but he brushed my hand away. Eying a bunch of kids who’d arrived—probably here for someone’s birthday—I cursed them because while I’d always considered sex in public a bit icky, my skin was on fire, goosebumps prickled over it. I was running hot and cold. “It’s my treat. I suggested this place.”
“I earn way more than an English professor.”
Oh, no, no, no, no! “That’s very sweet of you, Brad. But that’s not how things work.”
He glowered at me. “It is where I come from. The alpha pays.”
The guy selling tickets gave me a ‘Hurry up’ glance, but I was having none of it. “We’re equal partners in this… this… this thing between us.”
A kid at the back of the line spoke in a loud whisper. “Do you think they’re doing it?” His friends tittered and the dads accompanying the group shushed them. Brad turned to the child, his eyes narrowing, a fierce expression on his face and growled. While the children huddled behind the grownups, his growly tone turned me on.
“Where’s the bathroom?” I casually asked no one in particular.
Brad flung money at the ticket booth and took the 3D glasses from the guy, who by now had a bored expression stamped on his face.
“You can pay me later, Gabe. Come on before I do something I regret.” Would that be sex in the mini golf course?
We chose putters and colored golf balls. The jungle theme was green, yellow, orange, and red. A parrot squawked, and I jumped. Brad chortled. “You can laugh,” I told him. “Get a look at yourself in those glasses.”
“If it’s anything like you, it’s pretty silly,” he agreed.
He rubbed his nose against mine, an age-old greeting used over the centuries. I usually preferred lips, but there was an intimacy about being so close and yet not having his tongue inside me, or his teeth nibbling my lower lip.
“Bet you can’t get a hole in one?” I sassed him.

My characters are sexy, hot, adorable—and often filthy—alphas and omegas. Feudal lords with dark secrets, lonely omegas running away from their past, and alphas who refuse to commit.
Lurking in the background are kings, mafia dons, undercover agents and highwaymen with a naughty gleam in their eye.
As for me? I dictate my steamy stories with a glass of champagne in one hand. Because why not?
