Ada’s Protective Mate by Jo Palmer

She has no choice but to trust a werewolf…

Long ago, Ada Gerritsen left the magically shrouded world of Galdorcwide and went to live among humans, finding her niche in New York as a lawyer. She’s had little contact with her kind since then…until she ends up involved in a bitter land dispute between the brownies, imps, and werewolves. At the first meeting between the groups, Ada encounters Nate le Garde, a big, ruggedly handsome werewolf with intense green eyes who heats her up in ways she doesn’t want to like. But after her best friend Remi is abducted, Ada has no choice but to turn to the werewolf for help.

Werewolf Nate le Garde knew Ada was his mate the instant he first saw her. Nate is used to getting what he wants, and he isn’t exactly a patient man, but Ada is doing everything in her power to discourage his pursuit. But when she comes to him, desperate to find her best friend, he immediately rushes to her aid. Now he must keep her safe in their quest to rescue Remi from the tortured and evil sorcerer who abducted her before he steals her powers…and her life. Oh, and along the way, he must somehow prove to her that she’s his soul mate. This isn’t going to be easy.
