Handfasted to the Bear - Reformed Rogues, #2

Recommend reading series and books in order.

He's a playboy warrior. She's a talented bowyer. He craves her attention. She's determined to ignore him. Can they stand each other long enough to realize they're a perfect match?

Brodie 'The Bear' Fletcher is a ladies' man. A legendary warrior on the battlefield, his conquests in the bedchamber are equally renowned. He belongs to no one and prefers it that way. But as Head Guardsman of the War Band to Chieftain Beiste MacGregor, Brodie is often in the company of an infuriating mixed-race bowyer named Orla who challenges him at every turn. With razor-sharp wit and a waspish tongue, she's a constant thorn in his side—and the woman he can't seem to get out of his head.

Orla 'the Orphan' has loved Brodie Fletcher for as long as she can remember, but he broke her heart years ago ... and never even noticed. Abandoned on the doorstep of Morag the Oracle, she was raised with the MacGregor clan. A master huntress and trusted advisor to the chieftain's wife, Orla has finally let go of the past and is ready to move on. If only the most infuriating rogue on the planet would leave her in peace.

But everything changes when Jarls from the North stake their claim. Suddenly, Brodie finds himself unwilling to let go of the very woman who threatens to steal his heart. 

They will all discover firsthand what happens when you poke the Bear.
