After an epically bad blind date, Zoey Monroe swore off men forever and got a tattoo that says “love bites.” Maybe she shouldn’t have tempted fate. A very powerful Mafia wolf has bitten her on the ass on a full moon. According to the Moretti Pack, the “moon-bite” means she is now the mate of Dominic Lombardi. Dominic will follow Zoey to the ends of the earth—no matter how far she runs or how well … runs or how well she hides. Crowding her world and refusing to take no for an answer, he refuses to stop courting her until she becomes his wife.
New dangers suddenly rear their ugly heads and threaten all of Encantado, the supernatural sin city Zoey calls home. When dark magic arrives, will she stop running long enough for her werewolf to claim his bride, or will she find herself fitted with a cement overcoat and sleeping with the fishes?

This is the story of Zoey and Dominic. He is a powerful Mafia wolf who has bitten her on the full moon making Zoey his mate. She’s not buying it and is running from him. But danger is all around now and Dominic isn’t going to stop until Zoey is his wife. I enjoyed this fun, entertaining romance with its twists and turns. I received an arc of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Never read anything b this author before, although she appears to be pretty prolific. This book was a fast paced, shifter, mafia story set in a “supernatural” town. Everyone seems to have some power. Dominic is a the shifter capo, and his wolf chooses Zoey as their mate. Zoey is less than enthusiastic about this turn of evens and does her best to avoid him. The story is well paced, interesting in parts, but not a real attention grabber. Overall this was just a so-so read for me.

I enjoyed Dominic and Zoey’s story, they may have their bumps but they were made for each other, their connection and chemistry was strong. They were drawn to one another, they were good together.
This very well-written book 1 in the Portal City Protectors Series is a wonderful story and a has great characters. The characters are believably well-crafted and they react in a realistic fashion. There is drama, tension, danger, and romance. This story has action, adventure, twists/turns, chemistry and love with a HEA that must be worked for. These characters have wonderful personalities that are brought alive by this great Author

This was a combination of fun, witty, relaxing but drama-filled read for me. It was very entertaining and the characters drew me into their story. Looking forward to the next book in this series.

Good first book full of action, plot and romance all around with more to come. I voluntarily received this book for an honest review.
A strange mix of paranormal and mafia drama romance written in a tongue and cheek style. The world of Encantado created by this author was filled with magic, spells, sifters, and gouls with human problems and daily angst.
There were the haves and have nots depending on the level of their abilities with the mob/mafia/gangs running the show with extortion, threats, and power.
In the midst of it all, snarky Zoey stole the show as she navigated through her life with the addition of Dominic, her fated mate.
I was truly entertained by this grab bag mix of a storyline from start to finish.

I love reading the different ways authors bring magic and the paranormal into our world. The story started off a little slow but it left me wanting in the end. Zoey is a strong heroine who cares for others, but still doesn’t quite believe in herself. Dominic is just the wolf to help her with that, though he has his own trust issues from the past. Throw in pack politics, teenagers, and pack wars and you have an amazing story that will keep you guessing and make you fall in love. I can not wait to start the next book in the series!

This is a new paranormal series that takes place primarily in the Portal City. Dominic and Zoey were both likable and relatable characters. The plot moved along at a good pace and offers a high council, drama, action,
verbal banter, surprises, love, some steam and a satisfying conclusion for this couple with a interesting ending and the epilogue was simply lovely. Definitely worth the read.

this is the first book in this series that I have read. I love the dynamics of the couple. You get all the things you want to read and more in a book along with the HEA for the couple. Even though it is a struggle to get there. Can’t wait to read the read of the series

I love the first book in a new series by Georgette. This paranormal romance has a lot to offer; namely humor, steam, sass and sweetness.

This is the first book I have read from this author and I have to say I like what I read. I liked the banter between Dominic and Zoey. They reminded me of an old married couple even though they weren’t married or even together.
This book is full of twists and turns, magic, mafia wars, drama, excitement and action. I was not able to put the book down once I started reading it. It had me hooked from the beginning. I am looking forward to reading the next book in the series as I would like to see what happens with some of the other characters.

The author has, once again, taken us from our world to another time and place. We are given so many different types of beings that you are pulled into the story until the very end.

I have to say I love this world. The author has created a world that makes sense in a realistic way. I can imagine Portal Cities. I can see the inhabitants. This place sucked me in and didn’t let go. I fell for Zoey, just like Dominic. And for Dominic. There are twists and turns as the story deepens and while the reader gets answers it’s an intricate yet believable braid of coincidences and happenings.
Two wolf packs too close together. The best coffee house just closing one day without warning, the proprietor moved away. Street kids Zoey is looking after while she works two jobs.
I recommend to readers of suspense, humor, paranormal, and even those who might like little town romances with a bit of heat.

Mated to the Capo is the first book in Georgette St. Clair’s Portal City Protectors and has a vast array of paranormals represented within. A very fast and busy story, with a lot going on a little focus on the relationship between the primary couple. I like the plot premise but did find the heroine a little annoying. An OK start to the series, and interesting enough that I’ll read book two.

Zoey has had it with blind dates and dating. With men in general really. After the ultimate in bad blind dates, she gets a tattoo that says “love bites” which is ironic really when Dominic’s wolf gives her a claiming bite while she’s waitressing. Except zoey is human and Dominic is Capo of a werewolf pack. He’s determined to have her as his mate, even if he has to bombard her everyday.

This story takes place in a fictional city called Encantado, a town where shifters and all magical beings are sent to live their lives away from unmagical humans. One such human who developed magic is Zoey. She was taken from her family and friends sent to Encantado, there she works for a catering company and a server at a big event held by the Moretti Pack, a mafia wolf pack that runs her part of town. This party took place on the full moon causing their wolves to come out and one, a capo to the boss, Arturo Moretti, Dominic Lombardi, bit Zoey in the butt, which makes her his mated. There is a problem, Dominic was asked to mate the rival mafia pack leader’s niece to bring the two packs together to run the city in peace, now there maybe war because of this and not only that since Zoey was bit she may not survive the next full moon.
This story is full of twists and turn, mafia leaders killing their own people, and mages help the mafia packs now there are being sneaking into the city and killing everyone. This is a must read series that will keep you reading one book after another.
I am volunteering to leave a review for a ARC of this book.
4.5 Stars!
This story is such a Hoot! Zoey is a sassy, spunky and very sarcastic do-gooder, always helping others, loved her and her come backs, but so does our hero, Dominic a mysterious mafia capo who has bitten Zoey on the ass, claiming her. The whole book is gripping and entertaining from start to finish, the interactions between Zoey and Dominic are always fun an steamy, as are the one’s with her friends less the steam, there are lots of mysteries to be solved and foes to defeat. Can not recommend this book enough.
