The Alpha's Warlock

Mismatched Mates Series, Book 1

De: Eliot Grayson

Narrado por: Chris Chambers

Cursed, mated, and in for the fight of their lives....

Warlock Nate Hawthorne just wants a cup of coffee. Is that too much to ask? Apparently. Because instead of precious caffeine, all he gets is cursed by a pack of werewolves who want to use him for his magic. Now the only way to fix the damage is a mate bond to a grumpy and oh-so-sexy alpha in the rival pack, who happens to hate him. This is so not how he wanted to start his day.

Ian Armitage never intended to take Nate as his mate. The Hawthorne family can't be trusted. Ian knows that better than anyone. The fact that he's lusted after the way-too-gorgeous man for years? Totally irrelevant. Ian's just doing what is necessary to protect his pack. This whole mating arrangement has nothing to do with love and never will. That's his story and he's sticking to it.

Nate and Ian will have to work together if they have any hope of staving off the pack's enemies and averting disaster. That's assuming they can stop arguing (and keep their hands off each other) long enough to save the day....

Contains mature themes.

Love this! Idk how many times I had this on repeat

All I can think about is a younger version of Ian intensely starring at younger Nate, then Nate muttering to himself “Wtf.” Nate doesn’t say this in the book but I say he does lol Great characters 10/10

Couldn’t Stop Listening – A Brilliant Start!

I went in expecting a fun paranormal romance, but this blew me away. Ian and Nate have insane chemistry – a powerful alpha and a stubborn, clever warlock forced to work together? Pure magic. There’s humor, danger, slow-burn tension, and some genuinely tender moments that had me hooked. The narration makes every sarcastic remark and heated moment come alive. This first book set such a high bar for the rest of the series – and I was instantly addicted.

Pleasantly Surprised! QUITE a Great Little Diamond in the Rough!

I was in the mood for paranormal m/m romance (ok, if I’m honest, I’m ALWAYS in the mood for this genre!) and I came across this little book, which seemed too good to be true! It sat in my wishlist for awhile, and I decided to roll the dice and give it a credit! I’m glad I did, because once I started listening, it turned out to check almost all of my boxes: no insta-love, no horrendous narration, no crappy writing, and no avoidance of hot gay sex scenes! (Well, the sex scenes could have been more detailed and more plentiful, but they were firmly in the “ok, im feeling this; lady bits are standing by at attention” category). It was slightly annoying that the (low-level) angst/conflict between the two MC’s seemed a bit forced, at times, but that was not a significant problem, for me, anyway. Overall, a great read if you like, hot smexy times, werewolves, vampires, magic, VERY DECENT WRITING, good plot-building and you aren’t insistent on having TONS of world-building (it was enough for this story, imho.I would give this one 4.5 snarky-meets-studly stars! Just goes to show that if you scour Goodreads and Audible, there are still some hidden gems out there! Now, I’m off to go spend another credit on the second installment! Hope you enjoy!!

Nice easy listen for a lazy weekend

I really enjoyed this story. Nothing earth shattering, but a perfect mix of humor and feels and plot.

Steamy and rebellious

Hot with tension from beginning to the end. Love really is a wild - and many times - dangerous roller coaster. I’m all for it😏
