Alpha + werewolf + needing a mate = sexy, sweet romance of a good time!
"So, I've decided on what we'll be doing", the message read, making Ethan eagerly type back.
"And what will that be?"
"It's a secret, you'll find out when we meet."
"Do I at least get to know where I'm meeting you at?"
"I'm not sure, I've been debating on whether I should pick you up and blindfold you for the journey or if I should have you meet me there."
"Think fast, I'm dying from anticipation", Ethan typed back quickly, grinning at the immediate response he received.
"Well, that sounds like an intensely personal problem."
Ethan moved to type back but there was another text.
"I'll send the address in a minute, just be there, tomorrow, five o'clock sharp."
"I'll be there", Ethan typed back, heart pounding in his chest, "can't wait."

Alpha Needs A Mate
If you could sum up Determined to Be Mated in three words, what would they be?
Sweet Contemporary Romance
What was one of the most memorable moments of Determined to Be Mated?
I like the scene where Ethan found out from his pack that he should have asked Jessica to marry him, not just mate him. Then the following scenes where the pack came together to help him put it all together to surprise Jessica.
What about Aaron Shedlocks performance did you like?
I loved his voice, it was deep, just what I expect of an alpha wolf.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes, and I did. It was only a little over two hours long.
Quick little RomCom with some werewolf references
Any additional comments?
Determined to be Mated is the first book marketed as paranormal romance (with a self proclaimed werewolf + his whole pack) that I've come across in which they don't delve into werewolfy things. Beyond tossing around words like wolf/alpha/mates - no one "changes", the story doesn't worldbuild, the author doesn't try to weave her version of werecritters into the story - it just assumes that the listener has gobbled enough paranormal by this point that it isn't necessary. ....Annnnd Huh. I guess it wasn't. Although I was pretty surprised, I guess it was kind of nice not to have to keep a new version straight.
The story revolves around Ethan, who doesn't realize he's missing something until his pack forces him to try to find a mate.
You know how Molly Harper books have cutesy banter and are sort of silly in their dialogue? This story reminded me of the couple of hers that I've grabbed. At one point, the characters even apply the word silly to describe themselves.
You won't find a gritty, dirty, rough alpha in this story. Instead, you will be privy to Ethan's inner worries about choosing the right outfit for the date and if the strawberry scented shampoo his guy friend&fellow packmate suggested was the right choice.
