Heart of the Hunter ( Dragon Chalice book 1)
By Tina St.John (Lara Adrian)
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🌶🌶🌶
Ariana of Clairmont would risk anything to save her kidnapped brother, a quest she knows is fraught with peril. Her only ally is Braedon le Chasseur, a formidable knight with a mysterious past, whose scarred face and brooding nature mask a soul filled with pain. Ariana fears this dangerous man and the secrets he strives to conceal - but Braedon's touch is pure seduction, his kiss a potent lure that tempts her into a passion she is powerless to resist.
Once known as The Hunter, now haunted by a dark legacy he struggles to deny, Braedon lives in a world of shadow and isolation - until he is thrust together with an innocent beauty in need of his protection. Embarking on a journey that will lead them to a legendary treasure, Braedon will be forced to confront old enemies and the stunning secret of his true nature - or risk losing Ariana and the only happiness he has ever known. . . .
I really enjoyed this book. It was historical romance with a bit of magic thrown in. It was spicy in a hot romantic way. I love Lara Adrian she never fails to bring us a good love story with the type of villains you hate forever. Recommended!

Fantasy Lover ( Dark Hunter 1)
By Sherrilyn Kenyon
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
It might sound like a man's favorite fantasy - to live forever, destined to be the lover of thousands of women. But for Julian of Macedon, it's a nightmare. Once he was a proud Spartan general; now he's a love-slave, his essence magically held captive in a book, cursed to spend all eternity pleasing women. Then, one day, Grace Alexander summons Julian to fulfill her passionate dreams - and sees beyond the fantasy to the man himself.
Long years as a sex therapist, listening to other people's bedroom problems, have taken a lot of the fun out of the physical side of love for Grace. But with or without sex, the rules of the enchantment cannot be changed - Julian is hers for the next month. And, as their time together slips by, Julian and Grace find more to share than sympathy and conversation and they begin to wonder if love might be within their grasp. That leaves only one question. Is love enough to break a 2,000-year-old curse?
This is a reread for me and one of my favourites. The Dark Hunter series has to be one of the best fantasy series out there. I love the Greek gods and everything these books bring.

Merissa (13915 KP) rated Knotted by Her Alphahole Enemy (Knotted by the Alphahole) in Books
Mar 30, 2026
KNOTTED BY HER ALPHAHOLE ENEMY is part of the Knotted by the Alphahole series. This novella is fast-paced, with a full story being told.
Hunter and his brothers watched their father fade after his omega died, and swore they would never allow themselves to be in that position. Hunter's brother, Grayson, was the first one to break that vow, and now it's Hunter's turn. You don't have to have read Grayson and Lila's story to appreciate this one. Jaleesa is opposing counsel on a big case that will make waves for the omega community, but when her biology changes things, will she stay or walk away?
This is the first novel by this author I have read, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. It is a novella, but it didn't feel as though anything had been missed out from their story. Both Jaleesa and Hunter are strong characters, lawyers determined to do what they think is right. The scenes between them as lawyers are sharp and steamy when they're alpha and omega, but you can still feel the push-and-pull in every moment.
This was a great read that I definitely recommend. I want to read about Grayson, Liam, and Rian now!

Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated After The Darkness Omnibus: Episodes 1 - 6 in Books
Jan 12, 2018
[After The Darkness Omnibus:Episodes 1-6] by [SunHi Mistwalker] is set in a dystopian world where it is always winter. There are some people of privilege who live fairly comfortably but that can be taken away from you for saying anything bad about the government. Those people are often killed or turned into mindless puppets to serve the higher classes. The story follows the entwining lives of one young girl and the "hunter" with a conscience who capture her and her young sister. The way they fight for life and what is right changes throughout the story. This was an enjoyable read with interesting setting and characters.

Ooooh...I think this is the best book in the series! Somehow I think I've said that before, but I guess I didn't mean it until now. Wow! I literally read this book in about 10 hours of on & off reading. I just couldn't put it down.
Stephanie is back to being a bounty hunter. Grandma joins Sally Sweet's band for a brief run. Lula starts hooking up with Tank (a match made in heaven since Tank doesn't talk & Lula can't shut up!!!) A Ranger impersonator out to take over Ranger's life. A kidnapping, bombs, robberies, the list goes on. Nonstop action from beginning to end.

Erika (17789 KP) rated Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter (2012) in Movies
May 12, 2018
When I heard that the same guy that directed Wanted was going to direct the movie version of Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter, I was game. I was looking so forward to this film.
The first thing I found kind of off about the film was the casting of Abraham Lincoln, Benjamin Walker. He was just a little wooden, and it didn't work for me.
Now, Dominic Cooper as Henry Sturges was a great casting. Yes, I read the book, so I knew what Sturges was. The scene with Cooper wearing the pair of sunglasses? Amazing.
Overall, this alternative history was good, but not as well executed as the book.

Fun Adventure With Friends
The game is so much fun to play. It's more fun playing with friends and working as a team to take down monsters. The different areas are beautiful and fun to explore. Gathering resources is pretty straightforward and you can craft items and armor. While the gameplay doesn't hold your hand every step of the way, it is very well done. There's always something to do and it's great doing it all with friends and other players.

Katie Guinn (34 KP) rated Two Girls Down: A Novel in Books
Dec 7, 2018
Kylie and Bailey Brandt vanish from a shopping mall parking lot while their mother is buying a birthday present. Single mom Jamie quickly realizes that the overworked local police department is not the best option for finding her daughters, so she hires former bounty hunter Alice Vega, famous for finding missing people. Vega partners up with ex-cop/private investigator Max “Cap” Caplan to find the sisters. The result is a tense, twisty ride that I thoroughly enjoyed. I loved Alice Vega, she reminded me of Lisbeth Salander: tougher than battery acid, but completely awkward at personal interaction. I’m really looking forward to more books featuring her character.
