I didn’t sign up for a dating app. My meddling best friend did.

And now the notification is staring me in the face: FATED MATE MATCH CONFIRMED.

The universe—and the algorithm—has picked my perfect partner. There’s just one problem.

Thomas Garrett is everything I’m not. He’s an uptight Alpha Wolf veterinarian who organizes his spice rack alphabetically and lives his life by a color-coded spreadsheet. Meanwhile, I’m a Beta Bear who runs an outdoor adventure company on pure vibes, chaos, and a refusal to plan anything more than five minutes in advance.

We agree immediately: the algorithm is broken. Bears and wolves don't mate. It’s simple biology.

So we make a plan: We’ll go on a few terrible dates, document our total incompatibility to get a refund, and go our separate ways.

Except the dates aren’t terrible.

The ax-throwing competition ends with him laughing for the first time in years. The horror movie night ends with me buried against his chest. And when he organizes my messy kitchen without me asking, I realize I’m in trouble.

But Thomas has secrets. A pack that doesn't want him. A past that won't let go. And when shifters in suits show up at my door threatening the life he’s built, I realize our biggest problem isn't the algorithm.

It's whether he'll choose me... or the obligations he left behind.

Accidentally Matched is a slow-burn, fake-dating MM shifter rom-com featuring a golden retriever energy bear, a grumpy wolf with control issues, meddling matchmaking elders, and proof that sometimes the algorithm knows exactly what it's doing.
