As the alpha of the Tremblay pack and the de facto leader of my entire clan, I’ve always followed the code of wolf shifters… Olivia Hathaway, a witch and activist who has a lot to say about how I do things as CEO of the Tremblay Company.
And…
It’s useless to deny the attraction between us but it’s impossible to think I can ever fall in love with a human.
Also..
It doesn’t help that the enemies who have been after my family since my brother Aaron chose his mate, are joining together to defeat us in the name of preserving “the true shifter ways.”
But I won’t let them.
Even if I have to declare war.
I’ll fight for my family with every breath in my body and it turns out…that includes Olivia Hathaway.
Warning: 18+. For mature audiences only. This book is a standalone with a HEA ending.

I have loved all the books in this series, but this one took me a bit to get into. However, once I did, I had a hard time putting it down. Xander is the eldest son in the family. He’s also the pack alpha and CEO of the family business. Lots fall in his shoulders. All his brothers have already found their mates. Now it’s his turn. Olivia is a human and a powerful witch. She’s also an activist who goes to Xander to prove to him that not all is right with some things his company is part of. Things he isn’t aware of. Lots of action and sex.

I’ve read several books written by Abigail Raines; she has done a great job at writing a good book; she is becoming one of my favorite authors. I can’t wait to read more of books her books.
The story line caught my attention at the very beginning and kept me interested throughout the entire book.
I loved the chemistry between the characters.

Xander’s Mate is book four in the series The Quinton Shifters by author Abigail Raines. This is one whirlwind of a read. The final brother has met his match- there’s no fighting it- even though he tries. Sometimes “Fate” just smacks you right where it counts. Action packed- drama- suspense and it’s hot as hell!!
Enjoy!!

Can Xander do it all? Xander was the pack/clan Alpha and the CEO. He grew his father’s company into a billion dollar behemouth, so he has a lot riding on his shoulders. He watched his brothers find their mates. Olivia, activist/witch wants to ensure Xander and his company are responsible. Xander opens up to research a potential problem and they bond over ensuring the people are taken care of and hte company is operating responsibly. Constraints, responsibilities, personal needs all churn in the relationship mixing bowl. Can Xander handle it all? Is Olivia his balance, his soul? Nicely written. Endearing characters. You are totally rooting for Xander. Well done! I received an ARC from Booksprout for a review.
This is the fourth story in this series, but you don’t have to have read the other three to understand what is going on, but it does help to fully understand the total dynamics. I enjoyed reading this story because I have read the other three and it was always sad that Xander had all this responsibility on his shoulders and nobody to share with.
Xander was both the Alpha of his pack and of the clan plus he was the CEO of the aerospace company his father founded but he grew into a multi-billion dollar company. He has watched all three of his brothers find their mates even though there were some rough times with people getting kidnapped and deranged clans coming after their family and such. It just gets to be too much for one man who is all alone at the top. Then he finds a woman that both he and his wolf call mine, but she is totally human, and a witch. If she had the wolf genes and couldn’t shift, that would be okay, but being totally human, he was forbidden by old wolf law to mate with her. When a break-out of the shifter jail includes her biological father, who is a wolf, they are expecting a total war. Everyone who was in the jail were people who had at one point or other in the past few years fought against his ruling family.
Olivia ran away from home at the age of seventeen. She was on the street for awhile then was picked up by a coven who recognized her magic, and trained her to become a witch. She brews potions for people, mostly for confidence and luck, nothing sinister. She is also an activist. She has been contacting Xavier’s company about the project they are working on and about the mines that they are getting a special mineral for that project. She convinces him to do a surprise visit of the mines to verify that the conditions are as the reports say. They weren’t. There were children working there under dire conditions. He withdraws his business from there and that causes problems with his board members. As they spend more time together, she realizes he is a wolf shifter and then confesses that she is a half-breed. Her father is a shifter who experimented on her for the first seventeen years of her life to try to help the wolf shifter population to grow. The fact remains, she doesn’t have the shifter gene, but she has shifter blood. That still isn’t enough for them to be able to mate, even though they are strongly attracted to each other, in and out of bed.
The war comes to the family estate.

OMG Abi has done it again! This latest book in the Quinton Shifters series is fantastic! I could not read it fast enough. Rivals to lovers, old enemies, old friends, new problems, angst, epiphanies, some violence, and steamy sex. You will not be able to put this book down! As the eldest of the Trembley brothers, and Alpha of their pack, Xander has a lot of responsibilities, He is overworked, not willing to admit he just might need help from his brothers. He certainly does not have time for a mate. When a persistent, nosey, and gorgeous activist comes calling, Xander must sit up and take notice. Not only must he admit she is right about the vile practices of one of his suppliers, he must admit she is his mate. Olivia just wants Xander to see the truth. She never thinks he will admit she is right. And she never thinks she will fall in love with a man like Xander Trembley.
You will fall in love along with Xander and Olivia. You will feel sorrow, anger, compassion, fear and passion. Their road to HEA is not easy, what with old enemies making a move to wipe the Trembley Pack off the map. But HEA is assured. You are going to Love this book!
This book has violence, wolf shifters after all. There is adult language and themes. There is steamy sex. This book is intended for mature 18+ readers.

Xander is a wolf shifter that believes in fealty, loyalty t o his pack but avoid humans. Can he do all three and still get what he wants. Olivia is a witch and human who has voiced her opinion about the way he does things. The attraction is explosive can they avoid it? Great book but then all of them in this series are.

Xander is not only a Pack Alpha, he is CEO of the company his father founded, and he is the one who expanded it and took it public on a global level. So that means Shareholders and Board Members to worry about in addition to Pack and Clan business.
He has been pestered from some time by Olivia, an independent activist, who discovers some irregularities with the source for a key element of several big projects. Xander agrees to a visit to Chile in order to see firsthand what he thinks will be a non-problem at the mines. Of course, there are indeed problems there, and Olivia and his team help Xander to address that while he is forced to suspend production of a huge project. But the people really do matter more to him.
And another huge complication leaps out as a huge threat: Jack Gidion, and his crusade to save the shifters at any cost.
War is at their gates. Unexpected love complicates things, but might be quite useful to their defense. Surviving a bloody war would mean winning a war of hearts and minds next.
Intense action and romance. A great KU read!

Great read in this series – can be a stand alone but so much better when read as part of this series. Well written as all of Raines’ reads are. Paranormal shifter romance that you will just fall in love with. Characters that although paranormal come across believable and relatable so you are completely drawn in and with the twists you’re kept engaged and turning pages!

I’ve been waiting on this one with baited breath, knowing with each book, the anticipation was building and Dayum, Abigail Raines delivered in spades. Xander, billionaire CEO and Pack Alpha, has so much on this plate he doesn’t always know what’s going on. Olivia is an activist determined to keep corporations on their toes and accountable, along with being a witch. When these two meet you can almost feel the intensity through the pages. There are twists and turns throughout the storyline and even the plot takes a twist I didn’t see coming. As usual, the characters are beautifully flawed and relatable. With all this combined, I had a story that kept me glued to my seat and my heart pounding as I turned each page trying to find out what would happen next. Well done!! I received a copy of this ARC from Booksprout and am giving my voluntary review.
This is a fun story with lots of interesting characters. Xander is a shifter and pack alpha and CEO who gets involved with Olivia. Olivia is a witch and a great character who fights for causes. Both were great characters with good chemistry and some steam. Loved how the two meshed and the plot. Some action and a great secondary characters with an HEA. Loved it!

Hard and fast fall, action packed
Xander’s Mate (The Quinton Shifter Series Book 4) was long anticipated! Throughout this series, readers have been given glimpses of Xander and given no clues of who his mate might be. Once I started this book, I couldn’t put it down.
I really fell hard for Xander and Olivia, at least as hard as they fell for one another. And the plot! Another surprise added to series plot. It was fantastic and action packed.
Overall, a great series ending book and HEA for Xander as well as the entire Tremblay family.

I liked this book a lot. I liked that there was a lot more depth to Xander than we have seen previously.
It was a well written book with plenty of action throughout.
I like the relationship that develops between Olivia and Xander. There are some surprises along the way but ultimately, there is a very good happy ending.
When Wolf Shifter Xander gets called out and put in his place by Olivia a beautiful human Witch and Activist he knows he shouldn’t be turned on but he can’t help it. Humans and Shifters aren’t allowed to be together but when not only his pack but also Olivia is put in danger by escaped Shifter prisoners he will stop at nothing to protect them and claim his mate…..to hell with rules
