Written by Paige Tyler

Narrated by Holly Adams

He's a High-Octane Special Ops Pro

When Special Forces Captain Landon Donovan is pulled from an op in Afghanistan, he is surprised to discover he's been hand-picked for a special assignment with the Department of Covert Operations (DCO), a secret division he's never heard of. Terrorists are kidnapping biologists and he and his partner have to stop them. But his new partner is a beautiful, sexy woman who looks like she couldn't hurt a fly-never mind take down a terrorist.

She's Not Your Average Covert Operative

Ivy Halliwell is no kitten. She's a feline shifter, and more dangerous than she looks. She's worked with a string of hotheaded military guys who've underestimated her special skills in the past. But when she's partnered with special agent Donovan, a man sexy enough to make any girl purr, things begin to heat up . . .

Reviews for Her Perfect Mate

[ftbooklover · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

Her Perfect Mate combined elements of military romance with the paranormal. The male lead was a special forces soldier recruited to join and agency populated with "shifters" that have natural combined human and animal DNA which gives them special abilities that most normal humans don't have. The two main characters team up to find and eliminate a scientist who is trying to create his own version of "shifters." The story was very interesting with the characters trying to not only deal with their love for each other, but also accepting their differences. I'm anxious to read the next book in this series.

It was good, but I still think there's something missing to make this a really good story.

This is going to be a damn good series based on this first book. I like the fact that this is a super secret group using shifters and humans together. I even liked that they weren't what you normally think of as shifters. It's gonna be a really exciting series to read and see where it goes. There was plenty of action to keep things interesting without it being to much and of course the level of sexual tension that radiated off Landon and Ivy was enough to set the book on fire. So, why didn't I give it five stars? Well, one reason was the handler's name kept changing from John to Todd and back again and that got annoying. The other reason was I didn't understand why if John was in charge of everybody and everything he took orders from Dick, who was under him in the chain of command. Anyway, looking forward to more in this series.Thanks to Netgalley for the ARC.

Captain Landon Donovan is suddenly pulled out of an Op and sent back to D.C. He soon learns that he now works for DCO- Department of Covert Operations and his new partner is a female. The very hot, Ivy Halliwell. On their first meeting the attraction for both of them is instant. Landon can't quite figure Ivy out, but he knows there something different about her.This story is a mix of paranormal and military romance. In the past I haven't had much luck with military romance novels, but this one really grabbed me. Landon & Ivy are quite fascinating and I couldn't wait to see where their story would lead. I thought Angelo and Clayne were also interesting characters. I'm looking forward to reading more books in this series. Ms. Tyler's writing flows beautifully. Her Perfect Mate is filled with danger, adventure and plum full of sexiness. A must read.

Ah... Shifters in literature... Always a girl's joy to read about those. They're those hot, sexy, OTT Alpha guys who can make you cream your panties at the mere mention of their name. Ho, boy...Except... This story's main shifter character is not the guy. Nope. Nuh-huh. Ivy Halliwell has lost two partners already - both from their own stupidity and their prejudice against her gender and her nature. Because Ivy is not just any DCO operative. She's an EVA, a feline shifter, and an underestimated one at that. But her new partner is bound to change things - not only out in the field, but also in her personal life. Landon Donovan is every bit the man she could very well fall for. Strong, professional, hot and sweet - and, the most important of it all, he's understanding and accepting. Plus, he seems like he wants her just as much as she wants him. Yet, the DCO rules are clear - no dating between the agents. How can they be together the way they want to when there are people in high positions that want the EVA program to get shot down - waiting for the right opportunity to get Landon and Ivy to fail? And even if they make it somehow, can they still survive the great danger that has risen and threatens the safety of both humans and shifters alike?Ivy was not the usual main heroine. And I mean that in every sense. She was not whiny and she never acted like a spoiled child. And while we have seen many badass heroines so far, this one was different. She knew how to take care of herself - sometimes she was better at it than Landon - yet she was sweet when you came to know her personally. Playful, even. And very feminine and cute in her self-conscious ways that were the awful result of the poor way people around her treated her with. Which is why Landon was perfect for her. An Alpha male that was comfortable in his masculinity to give the leading position to Ivy in missions, because he knew of and trusted in her abilities as a shifter that put her in a higher level from him - and he was man enough to not care, because he knew that either way, at the end of the day, he was the one wearing the pants in their relationship. This of course didn't make him a wuss - on the contrary, I think he became even hotter when he did all those things. As a couple, the two partners were freaking amazing! Screw-me-raw hot and mind-numbingly... right. And finally, we get to see the woman having to put up against the mating urges and taking cold showers because her lover smells like the most delicious treat - we knew it was real, we knew it could happen, and we finally get to witness it! I can't wait for Clayne's story - well, at least, let's hope the wolf the 2nd book's title refers to is him. I want him to end up with Kendra so much, I nearly bit off my tongue begging the page to give me a small clue - just one! - as to how he felt towards her, but zero. None! And Declan, too! Oh, and I want to see a book for Angelo and Diaz and the rest of Landon's previous team - but that's just me and my fangirling, so I don't think we'll see much of that...***I was given an ARC from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
