Bear With Me - Love, Magic, And A Bear [ON HOLD]

Katinka Crnčević ( "That's 'Churn-sher-vitch', thank you.") is in a bit of trouble.

There are things you are not supposed to do while pretending to be a responsible young adult.
Getting drunk and going all alone on a hiking trip that leads you through a dark and ominous forest in a foreign country - just to spite your Ex - is probably one of them.

Especially so, when you have never been hiking before.

So Katinka has no-one but herself to blame when she manages to get lost in the (quite aptly named) "Black Forest" in southern Germany.

It probably isn't her fault, that she also ends up being chased and tackled by an enormous, shaggy bear - who promptly turns into an equally shaggy, unwashed and overgrown guy (well, that last bit might have been kind of her fault), who is rather a little too pleased to meet her.

After all, there are no bears in the Black Forest.

And it's really just bad luck that this unfortunate event causes her to be dragged straight into the world of Fairy-Tales, where she is suddenly faced with Magic and Curses, Fairies, and Dragons, Psychologists, Elves, Wizards, Princes, Queens, Germans, and - all in all - more Attractive Males than anyone should have to put up with.

All of that probably wouldn't be so bad, if it wasn't for the fact, that she is also apparently being stalked.

By a bear.
