Summary
Misha doesn't remember what it's like to have a home.
He left Russia in search of a better life, but when he didn't find it, he left the human world behind. Now he lives in the woods and eats garbage out of trash cans. At least he's safe here as long as he stays a bear.
But he keeps going back to one particular house, to one particular guy. He can't seem to stay away. JT feeds him breakfast and says he wants to help, and Misha slowly, begrudgingly begins to trust him. Before long, Misha's living in his spare room and learning how to be human again . . . and lusting over his new roommate.
JT is everything Misha's always told himself he can't have. He plays hockey, he's rich, he looks amazing in a swimsuit, and he turns out to be much less straight than Misha assumed. As their summer idyll takes a thrilling, steamy turn, Misha begins to tentatively put down roots in JT's hometown of Sault Ste. Marie, and think about what might happen when the summer ends.
But Misha's past hasn't left him behind, and when his secrets abruptly come to light, he risks losing everything about his new life that he's come to cherish . . . especially JT.
Contains mature themes.

Enjoyable slow burn
I wasn't really sure what I was expecting, but I was really pleasantly surprised. This isn't like most of the titles I choose. It's a character based slow burn where the two MCs are really the focus without many other characters.
The MCs are at a lake property that's pretty secluded. There are shifters and people in the town but they're really secondary to the story. The characters get to know eachother over time so it's easier to see the relationship building. I listen over two days while pottering around my house and this was a great one to listen to in longer blocks. I'm not sure I'd go for this if you listen 30 mins at a time because of the slower pace. Also, there is spice but it's certainly not filled with it so if that's your thing, you might not like that it's half way before you get any of it. That said, this was better than expected and the narrator was good too.

boring
Time of death: 40%
I missed an arc. Besides not knowing Micha's background, there is nothing interesting. And there are no clues, hints, drops of information to keep me invested. I want to know a person's hopes, fears, secrets, emotions and character. This is just a record of two people living together.
And why is there a shifter community? They are as interesting as a knitting circle. Shouldn't there be some lore, culture, social structure or just, IDK, anything. If you replace the words shifter with redheads you have the exact same story.
