Perfect Mate by Jennifer Ashley

Yay! Another bear book!
For Perfect Mate we find ourselves in the Nevada shiftertown. Nell is tough and stubborn. She has two cubs, that are mostly grown up bears. That doesn't mean mama bear is not heavily into their lives protecting them.
When Cormac ends up in town, Nell is instantly on alert. He's looking for a mate, and Nell is not thinking of mating. Her life is wrapped up in her cubs. Once those cubs are on board with Cormac's plan, they are frustratingly on his side and encourage Nell to mate. It doesn't take too much pushing before she accepts Cormac. She is definitely the dominant of the pair which is fun to see.
The back and forth between these two bears was really fun to read. But we can't leave out the action that comes when the cubs are in danger. We see mama bear take action to protect those cubs and gladly takes Cormac's help.
A couple of things about Perfect Mate. It was short as it was a novella. I love that this novella was done in audio, I hate switching formats to get the novellas read. Being a novella, the romance and the action all happen pretty quickly. Another thing is I love the bears. They are big, strong and protective. Nell is all of those and that made me love her as a main character. Cormac is a newbie, but his persistance and strength make him a great match for Nell. She is just so dominant that she balances out with Cormac.
This was a great pair and I loved every bit of their story.
