Mate

De: Ali Hazelwood

Narrado por: Ellie Gossage, Teddy Hamilton

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…

Ali Hazelwood can write IKEA instructions & I will read it

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 🌶️🌶️🌶️

Even Better Than The First!!!

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.

Love! Fantasy! & 🪢

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. 💚

Serena & Kohen 💚🖤

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! 😘 🤌🏻

Second book is much better

Everyone was super hyped over the first book (Bride) and to be honest it was OK, but it wasn’t like a super great book. I do feel like it was overly hyped but with the second book, I did enjoy it a lot more,The banter the chemistry the slow burn was actually very enjoyable, I definitely recommend the second book overall how complex everything was and the spice scene was very worth the wait.

Great plot!

This was such an exciting story! I loved this couples chemistry! I just about cried several times throughout the story because there were so many heartbreaking moments. You just kept holding onto hope while feeling a little let down at the same time until the very end. The only thing I didn’t like was not hearing Koen’s POV more. We got glimpses but I am a sucker for duel POVs.

Mate - Ali Hazelwood

It’s been a while since I loved an MMC as much as I love Koen Alexander. His unabashed honesty and sarcastic wit are great, but I love how easily he chooses Serena in the end. These two are a perfect example of fated mates done right. This book was so freaking good, and I need Ali to write way more paranormal romance!!

Narration was superb!

Devoured this book. Absolutely loved every second of it. Character development was great. Plot was great. Twists were great. Loved it!

Love Ali’s writings

Loved the story, the voice actors were perfect just like you think the characters will sound

Enjoyed a lot

Ok, this book is light and kind of unserious, but I enjoyed it so much. The characters are well developed and their interactions so entertaining. The spice is spicing, even with the different anatomy.
