Synopsis (Goodreads):
A hospital manager with a heart of gold. A soldier with a dark secret.

Lillian's life is... dull. The highlights of her day, other than her skinny hot chocolate, are the hunky guards who work in the military wing. It's classified and way above her pay grade, but she can't help feeling sorry for the hollow-eyed men and women they shuffle past reception. Then a late night emergency is wheeled in, his abdomen shredded and covered in blood. They’re not an emergency room but she can’t turn him away and risk a death on her hands.

Unable to get the handsome soldier out of her mind, Lillian sneaks into the restricted area and finds herself thrust into a world where nothing makes sense. A world where men aren't always men, the dead walk, and her handsome soldier is way more than he seems...

Her scent calls to him. She's his. Now he has to keep her alive.

Jack Harper was a soldier, a good one... then the Project decided to play god. Now he has permanent anger management issues and a monster living inside him. Used as a weapon, he's been waiting for a chance to strike back. But the Project are onto him.

Ruled unstable, a kill order is passed down on Jack and his squad and they are transferred to St.Margarets. Play-things for the head docs until a bullet to the back of the head deals with them for good. But Jack isn't going down that easily, not when the delicate scent he'd been waiting for all his life wraps around him.

The delicate human woman is his mate. And he'll fight anything the Project throws at him to save her.

Monsters do exist…and they’re the good guys.
Thoughts on Perfect Mate: Werewolves, vampires, and zombies, man. Being "volunteered" for the Project doesn't seem to come with a whole lot of perks, but knowing in an instant when you find your other half is one of the few. Of course, the Project follows that up by trying to wipe you, your team, and your newly found mate off the planet, but STILL.

So. Jack and Lillian. She's a human stuck in a rut, he's a werewolf trying to keep from getting decommissioned by the military. They sort of fall into one another in probably the worst circumstances possible and BANG they're a thing. (No lie, I like when things like that happen quickly. A werewolf being able to sniff out his mate makes me happy!)

For all a werewolf and a human seem like they can't work (not to me, though, I'm totally down with that glorious pairing!), a vampire and a werewolf are even more crazy. Heh. I can't wait to see how those two get over their issues.

A whole lot of danger, a whole lot of monsters, and a few humans who are the real monsters. *thumbs up*
