All I want is a clever person to play cards with at night. No funny business. You sleep in your bed, and I’ll sleep in mine. Must be clean, quiet, sober, and willing to go to bed at a reasonable hour. A preference will be given to applicants who can play cribbage and gin rummy.

Sure, Kade wouldn’t normally consider a position as a companion for a polar bear shifter sentenced to a life in the oil fields of Alaska’s North Slope. But he’s broke. And the pay is good.

He doesn’t expect the “ornery card player” to be so handsome. Or sweet.

Before long, Kade wishes some “funny business” was an option. Especially when he goes into heat two weeks early...

A Handkerchief for Kade is an age gap romance with an omega who loves makeup, D/s, and MPreg of the penguin egg variety. It’s book five of the Alaskan Pebble Gifters series, and will only make sense if you’ve read the other books.

My Rating - 5 Stars!

A Handerchief for Kade is a fabulous shifter romance by Amy Bellows. The fifth book in the Alaskan Pebble Gifters series, it is easily read as a standalone. 

I absolutely love this shifter world surrounding the Pebble Gifters series. The author adds a tremendous amount of emotion and details into the world that all add immensely to the beauty of this tale/series. 

Like the previous books, Kade's story is tender, sweet, and absolutely mesmerizing. I love it all. 

Otis and Kade. Two shifters. Both lonely and broken. Two shifters who have no reason or purpose anymore. Until they meet one another. Kade and Otis are perfect for one another. They each give the other a reason to live, fully completing each other. It is an awesome story. 

There is a lot going on that adds to the emotion. There's past pains and regrets to deal with. There's a kink and sexual preferences to explore. There's some breath play, bondage, voyeurism, and exhibitionism.

But, damn it, once again my favorite scenes are the nesting ones. I cannot get enough of the author's nesting scenes. They are amazing, written with both heart and humor. These scenes alone are worth the read.

This tale starts on the Slope, and includes all the details of life on the Slope. There's also some Anchorage scenes, with some previous characters.

Handerchief for Kade is a fantastic blend of shifters, cultures, traditions, daddy kink, and romance. I can't recommend this book and series enough! And trust me, you just can't go wrong with an Amy Bellows book.
