The Bear's Hired Mate

A Paranormal Bear Shifter Romance

De: Amy Star

Narrado por: Addison Spear

"She was willing to be hired for anything, anything at all..."

Curvy Jane Arnold was a small-town girl who had moved to Las Vegas to start a new life. Only problem was, she was dead broke and desperate for a job. Any job.

Vincent Mezzanote was a powerful billionaire bear shifter with a huge business empire based in the City of Sin. He was a man full of opportunities along with dark secrets.

Now Vincent is recruiting a new personal assistant, and Jane has been invited for an interview. When she arrives, Vincent is stunned.

Not because she is perfect for the job - in fact she is far from it - but because he can tell from her scent that she's the mate for him.

Now Vincent has to decide, does he hire her as his PA or does he hire her as his mate?

Or does he do both?

Prophecy vs love

I was given this book for a honest review. What happens when a human and a first son of a werebear clan meet? A prophecy is full-filled.

Awsome to the Extreme

If you could sum up The Bear's Hired Mate in three words, what would they be?

My Four words would be: Intriguing, Angst, Romantic & Exciting

What did you like best about this story?

What I liked the most was... the idea of a family pack, only in the form of bears, werewolves, and everything else. Don't get me wrong, seeing all of that in humans themselves is good, but this adds an added ... spice ... an intriguing ... aspect to the story.

These pacts mate for life. That point, I like. The mates start their families, and live for quite some time. I highly recommend this book!

Which scene was your favorite?

My favorite scene was when Vincent transforms into his bear in front of Jane for the first time. He is able to show Jane his true side, which doesn't happen all that often for him; Vincent is a private man.

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

Enjoyment, because I was able to enjoy the book without any distractions and really listen to the book.

Any additional comments?

I'd say read this book, if only to satisfy your own curiosity. And thanks to audioblast for the chance to read the book!

Fun new take on Shifter Mating

Any additional comments?

Usually books that have shifters with destined mates in them, the couple feels an instant connection. This was the case with this book, but the bear had to do a little more courting than is usual in this genre. I really liked the bad boy bear and how he was both a leader for his people and a tattoo artist. The woman in this book was also interesting and I enjoyed listening to them interact. I got this book in exchange for a honest reveiw

Great for shapeshifter fans

If you could sum up The Bear's Hired Mate in three words, what would they be?

Love, Sex, Shapeshifters

What other book might you compare The Bear's Hired Mate to and why?

the Sherrilyn Kenyon Werehunter stories only with a little less mystical powers.

What about Addison Spear’s performance did you like?

She spoke well and clearly where it was easy to get lost in the story

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes! most definitely. Left me wanting more to know what happens next for this bear clan and the Long claw clan.

Nice Surprise

The Bear's Hired Mate is a short shifter romance with a lot of mating drama and a bit of danger drama. There's an insta-mate connection on Vincent's side with the love coming in a bit later and about as welcome as stepping in something stinky. Takes him a bit, but he realizes that deviating from your life's plan isn't so bad at all when you have a hot, sexy, understanding mate who is more than you ever imagined. There are some sinister bad guys and b*tchy women who come into play, as well as family, friends and coworkers who support Jane and Vincent as they find their way. I liked the story and the characters and I will definitely be listening to more audiobooks from this author.

The narrator performed male and female voices well and had good rhythm and flow. Her inflection was good, and she showed the right amount of emotion for what was going on in the story. Her pronunciation was good. I will look for more books that she has narrated.

I received this audiobook for free in exchange for an unbiased review. The number of stars I award in the 5-star rating system is based on where I believe this audiobook rates with other audiobooks of the same type, length and general feel-- not where it rates in comparison to all audiobooks of all time.
