Jason & Cadence

The Wolf's Mate, Book 1

By: R.E. Butler

Narrated by: Dara Rosenberg

For 14 years, alpha wolf Jason has watched his partially marked mate Cadence live her life without him. Circumstances force his hand and he must find a way to get her to uncover her buried memories of their past before someone else steps up to take her from him.

For as long as she can remember, hybrid wolf Cadence has loved Jason with every fiber of her being, but he's consistently shoved her away until the love that's there is bound tightly in anger and shame. No one can take his place in her heart, but that doesn't mean that there aren't wolves willing to try.

Will Cadence be able to get through Jason's icy demeanor to the heart of the boy she's always loved? Can Jason undo the past so they will have a future together? This book contains red-hot werewolf loving, plenty of neck biting, and misuse of a kitchen counter. The Wolf's Mate is a book for mature audiences only and contains sexually explicit content.

Love this story

I truly enjoy R.E. Butler 's books, I have almost all of her stories on my Kindle! So when I saw this on Audible I didn't even have to think about it, pressed the purchase button right away.
I'm hoping the rest of this series will be available soon.
The only draw back for me was the narrator choice, I feel her voice makes Cadence sound like a teenager. Took a few chapters for me not to analyze it.

Read its awesomeness!

Would you listen to Jason & Cadence again? Why?

This book is amazing, sweet and funny. I have read this book more than 5 times since I got it. I love it and am never tired of it.

What did you like best about this story?

I love how Cadence can stand up for herself instead of depending on others. That Jason has almost lost Cadence and has to try to win Cadence.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

I was excited in the end that Jason and Cadence are together at the end.

Could have been great, only ended with so-so

I’m all about a wolf shifter romance book that includes a hot alpha male and a sassy alpha female. Only this book lacked the alpha male part. The story is about Jason and Cadence. Jason had claimed Cadence when she was just nine and he was fourteen. Due to the fact that Cadence father was human and didn’t particular like wolves, Jason’s father had to make an alpha creed (order) that Cadence forget about the claiming, in order to save his son from having charges filed against him. So Cadence forgot about the claiming and Jason wasn’t allowed to remind her because of another alpha creed his father had given. So 14 years go by and Jason hasn’t in all that time tried to claim her or show her how much he has cared about her even after his father stepped down and Jason become alpha of the pack. Cadence has never stopped loving him but shows it by being mean to him and flirting with his rival in another pack. It isn’t until Cadence has graduated from college that Jason decides now is the time to claim her, only because the other pack of the town gave him an ultimatum, claim her or step aside.

I don’t know whether it is the writing or the reader but this story was more suited for a high school romance than an adult romance, minus the smex scenes and their rather tame. I agree with one review, several times while listening to this book, I caught myself rolling my eyes and wondering if I was reading a YA book instead. Yes Cadence is sassy and feisty (which I like in a heroine) but she acts as if she is still a senior in high school, with a crush on the quarterback of the football team. Jason is too passive. He doesn’t act like an alpha wolf. If he wanted to claim Cadence so badly and had been in love with her for that long, do something about it. Don’t send your younger brother as your errand boy, UGH! I have never listened to Dara and probably won’t if it’s an adult romance. She is suited best for YA in my opinion. Her voice has a more young adult tone to it.

So the big question is: is this book worth a credit, not in my opinion. If you can catch it on sale, maybe (and that’s a low maybe).

The most amazing story.

What made the experience of listening to Jason & Cadence the most enjoyable?

The story is such an amazing story. The story line completely amazes me. I loved the story line and depth and amazing amount of feeling Ms Butler put into the story line.

What did you like best about this story?

I loved the whole story line. The whole story amazed me and sucked me in.

What does Dara Rosenberg bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

She had a lot of depth to her tone even if she made it rough in her attempt of voices.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Jason found out that Cadence
