The instant #1 New York Times bestseller!

A Human hybrid and an Alpha Were claw against the bonds of fate in the highly anticipated companion novel to the New York Times bestselling Bride.

Serena Paris is orphaned, pack-less, and one of a kind. Coming forward as the first Human-Were hybrid was supposed to heal a centuries-long rift between species. Instead, it made her a target, prey to the ruthless political machinations between Weres, Vampyres, and Humans. With her enemies closing in on her, she has only one option left—if he’ll have her.

As Alpha of the Northwest pack, Koen Alexander commands obedience. His authority is so absolute, only a fool would threaten his mate. It doesn’t matter if Serena doesn’t reciprocate his feelings, nothing will stop him from keeping her safe.

But power-hungry Vampyres and Weres are not the only threats chasing Serena. Sooner or later, her past is bound to catch up with her—and Koen might be the only thing standing between her and total annihilation…

Narrators great, they made it better. Story felt rushed and with some development holes, not terrible, maybe higher expectations since this is the 2nd book, just could have been better.

Bride was better IMO

As my most highly anticipated of this year, Mate did not disappoint. I have no idea when Ali sleeps but at this rate, I will read anything she reads & I know I will always have a good time.

As far as this world goes, I was wondering how she was going to make this story different enough from Bride that it would still be interesting but Koen was the perfect grumpy MMC. The banter was there, the cute nicknames were there and the tension was there. Serena was the right mix of bold, insecure and witty.

The narration for this particular book was far superior than Bride.

Spice level 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Ali Hazelwood can write IKEA instructions & I will read it

I absolutely adored this book! Ali Hazelwood outdid herself again. This book is written so well and compels you to binge listen to it as much as you can. Perfect ending to such an amazing duology! So much happens in this book and it dives so much deeper into the were-world. (WHAT ABOUT THAT HEAT THOUGH!)

This book has everything - spice, banter, grumpy/sunshine, intensity. SO, SO, GOOD!

If you loved Bride, then you will adore Mate.

The duet narration in this book was superb! Both Ellie Gossage and Teddy Hamilton did an excellent job. I said so for Bride, but I also love that at the beginning of each chapter, there is a brief POV from Cohen.

Even Better Than The First!!!

Ali once again weaves a masterfully captivating tale filled with chemistry and charm. The storyline draws us in with the taste of unrequited love and only once we think we understand does she throw the next thing at us. You will love the characters' witty banter and Ali’s gentle nods to real life anecdotes. Ali has an incredible ability to infuse each scene with palpable tension and emotion locking us readers in for the ride as we dive through past traumas and finally cannonball into the heart of the characters' love and passion. This book is a masterpiece but of course it is, Ali is a true visionary. 💚

Love! Fantasy! & 🪢

Holy cow! I didn’t think I could love another book in this series more than Bride, but here I am… in LOVE with Mate! Ali Hazelwood is magical. That’s the best way I can describe her writing. I’ve never been a fan of “shifter romances” or “knotting” until NOW! 🥵😮‍💨 Have mercy! The dynamics between Serena & Kohen are so angsty & tension-filled I felt like I was being edged! 🥵 The way Serena was described while she was in heat made me feel like I was in heat! 🥵🥵🥵 Brilliant BRILLIANT job by Teddy Hamilton and Ellie Gossage with narration. Chef’s kiss! 😘 🤌🏻

Serena & Kohen 💚🖤
