Spitfire disgrace Matthieu Boudreaux has one wish: to age out of the Pedigree he despises, then destroy it. With one year left before he achieves the first step of his goal, Matthieu finally has some hope for an independent future. That is, until a surly Amethyst dragon by the name of Geoffrey Drake and his entourage show up at Matthieu’s cloister and inform him he’s been selected to be part of an "experiment".

Geoffrey Drake, proud and stuffy legal counsel for the Amethyst clan, has been charged with ruining his own life. His mission? Deliver a potential mate to the son of the Amethyst clan’s most despised enemy - and the man he’s loved in secret for the last hundred years - Topaz dragon Ian Brand. Refusal is impossible. Dragons don’t consort with dragons, and should Geoffrey decline, he risks exposing them both.

Ian Brand, charming black sheep of the Topaz clan, is trapped between his forbidden love for an Amethyst dragon centuries his senior and his duty to his family. Chosen by his unhinged father to be the Topaz candidate for the mating experiment, Ian is faced with a terrible choice: run away with the man he loves and face the deadly consequences or accept his fate with a broken heart.

But dragon magic - as Matthieu, Geoffrey, and Ian soon discover - works in mysterious ways. When an unforeseeable circumstance draws them all together and puts their futures at risk, they have no choice but to set their differences aside and work together to prove a new, startling truth....

What the dragon world knows about mates has been wrong all along, and it will be up to the three of them to prove it.

Please note: Mate is a steamy omegaverse romance involving male pregnancy that will leave you in stitches. It contains an experiment gone awry, five eccentric peacocks, an unusually large number of whelps, an ancient Viking Daddy dragon, and science! For maximum enjoyment, Mate is best listened to following the events of Clutch and Bond.

I first read or better say experienced Mate as an ebook. Found it to be a delightful, sensual , spellbinding , humorous , quirky and hot AF story .

With his spectacular narration Michael Ferraiuolo brings that experience to new highs. He gave main and secondary characters a distinctive and recognizable voice . Matching the character traits , personality and accent perfectly. It was a joy listening to his performance.

Piper Scott, Virginia Kelly and Michael Ferraiuolo together make formidable trio. Looking forward to future collaborations.

A gladly spent audio credit. 😁😀💕🙌 And that's saying a lot from a certified audio credit's hoarder like me , LOL😁😊😜

Absolutely -Fabulous Narration

This whole series is wonderful. I loved it and have listened to this one more than once. Michael Ferraiuolo does a superlative job bringing the characters to life and he does a great peacock. The only caveat is that I would read/listen to the books in order. However, that is no hardship whatsoever.

Peacocks and dragons and love - oh my!

Mate, by Piper Scott and Virginia Kelly, is the third book in The Forbidden Desires. It is burning hot and just WOW Matthiey and he two Dragon mates steamed up my kindle screen. This story had drama/angst, surprises, humorous dialogue, sweet moments and sexy times with a Triad. Oh, and dont forget the whelps and peacocks! Like Clutch and Bond, this book is amazing!

Narration by Micharl Ferraiuolo. Wonderful job bringing that extra layer of enjoyment of this story to the audio audience by providing fantastic voice work and a clear recording.

fFantastic

I loved this book when I read it but I love Michael Ferraiuolo's narration even more! I absolutely adore the way he is able to make distinctly different voices for each character and his peacock honk had me laughing every time. It's definitely worth thr listen and the story is very engaging and sweet too.

Even better than I expected!
