Nothing can stop Frankie Amato from defending her kind--or catching the rogue responsible for killing women in her territory. For that, this alpha female needs Jace’s skills more than she wants to admit. But as their investigation exposes evil truths, need burns into a passion that dare not be fulfilled. For to do so will have deadly consequences for them both…
REVIEW
The possibilities are endless!
I loooooove starting a new series. The excitement of entering a brand-spankin'-new world and meeting a fresh set of characters gets me every time. I love it even more than I love chocolate....and if you knew what a chocolate fiend I am, you'd understand what a big deal that statement is!
So let's talk story. In a nutshell, there's a brutal (and seriously deranged) supernatural killer on the loose, and to stop him, Frankie and Jace must set aside their differences and work together - preferably before they become the hunted. Easy, right? Wrong! Frankie is a werewolf, the alpha of her pack, and Jace is a werewolf hunter who works for the uber-secret organization known as the Execution Underground, which makes them natural enemies. About the only thing they have in common is their desire to bring the killer to justice. That, and the surprising and utterly scorching attraction that burns between them.
The book boasts an impressive cast. While Frankie and Jace may be the stars of the show, the supporting characters are equally attention-grabbing. Whatever kind of character floats your boat, trust me, you'll find him or her within Twilight Hunter's pages. All the characters are unique, with their own distinct skills and gifts, and every last one of them is badass in some way. It's a veritable buffet for readers, and I really have to hand it to Kait Ballenger for successfully weaving so many different personalities into her story without muddling the story itself.
If you love paranormal romances, you should definitely check out Twilight Hunter. It's got action, drama, lots of characters to fall in love with, and all the steamy-smexy times you could ask for....and that's just the tip of the awesome iceberg. The truly wonderful thing about the world Kait Ballenger has created is all the doors it opens for future books. With so many characters and story lines to explore, the possibilities for this series are practically endless. I don't know about you, but that sounds pretty darn good to me. So go on, add Twilight Hunter to your TBR list...right now!
