Remy Boudreaux has kept his
distance from women ever since his partner and girlfriend was killed on the
job. From his point of view, you can’t be hurt if you never let anyone get
close.
Everything changes when Remy reconnects with the beautiful forensic scientist—and his high school crush—Triana Bellamy. Remy is determined keep things casual. But when a mysterious wolf pendant ropes them both into danger, Remy may have to reveal his true self...and hope Triana accepts him just as he is.

Excerpt from WOLF HUNT
Triana was having so much fun, she was
disappointed when they finally reached her mother’s voodoo shop and the
apartment over it. Even though it was after two in the morning, she didn’t want
the evening to end yet.
“The shop hasn’t changed much, but do you want
to come in and look around anyway?” she asked hopefully.
He grinned. “Yeah. I’d like that.”
Triana unlocked the door, then closed and
locked it behind them quietly, so she wouldn’t wake her mom. When she turned
back around, Remy was already walking around the dimly lit shop, taking in the
shelves upon shelves of knickknacks that had mesmerized her since childhood.
The overhead lights were off, so the red, green, and purple neon tubes that
edged the display windows were the only source of illumination, but it was more
than enough to guide her steps as she moved to Remy’s side. She watched as he
picked up the various dolls, candles, beads, tarot cards, potions, books, and
other trinkets that filled the store. For such large hands, he handled
everything he touched with a surprisingly gentle touch.
“Everything is exactly the same as I remember
it.” He turned to smile at her, a warm glint in his eyes. “Well, not
everything. You’ve changed quite a bit.”
The heated way he looked at her made her tummy
quiver. “Really. How so?”
Remy took her hand and tugged her closer. The
tips of her nipples grazed his muscular chest, sending tingles spiraling
through her. “I tend to remember you as a shy, somewhat awkward girl who was
all knees and elbows back then.”
She laughed softly, a little embarrassed.
Yeah, that was a pretty good description of her when she was in high school.
She had been what her mom called a late bloomer, so everything had changed her
freshman year in college, when her body had made up for lost time.
“And now?” she asked in a near whisper.
He bent his head until his face was so close
to hers that she could feel the warmth of his breath on her skin. His left hand
came up and found her hip, slowly gliding back and forth across the silky
material and heating the skin underneath.
“And now, you definitely aren’t shy, you move
like a cat, and all those knees and elbows have turned into some serious curves
I’d love to explore, since I’m smart enough to know what I want.”
She blushed at hearing him put all that into
words. “No one’s stopping you.”
The glint in his eyes flared brighter for a
moment as the neon lights caught them. Then, one of Remy’s hands was in her
hair and he was kissing her. A moan involuntarily escaped her lips as his mouth
came down on hers and his tongue slipped inside. He tasted so delicious she
couldn’t help it.
She slid her hands up the front of his shirt
and grabbed his shoulders, squeezing hard as she pulled him even closer, urging
him to kiss her harder.
Remy must have understood what she was trying
to say because the hand in her hair tightened possessively and his tongue
teased hers more aggressively. At the same time, his free hand moved around
from her hip to her lower back, fitting her against him so firmly she could
feel every ripple and bulge in that perfect body of his. And one of those
bulges suggested he was enjoying the kiss just as much as she was.
Triana melted against him, surrendering to a
kiss she’d been fantasizing of for over a decade. She’d heard women talking
about going all weak kneed from a great kiss, but she’d never experienced it or
even believed it. She believed it now. If Remy hadn’t been holding on to her so
tightly, she was sure she would have just collapsed to her knees right there in
front of him.
Isn’t
that an interesting thought?
What I thought about Wolf Hunt
I know I've gushed about this series before -- it's one of my favorite shifter series. There's plenty of action and plenty of romance. When these wolves find "The One" -- their own true mate -- they get so epically alpha at the same time they totally fall hard for their mate. It's a great combination.
This is the sixth book in the series, and I always worry at this point that the story is getting old or that the series has run it's course. That is NOT the case with Wolf Hunt. I really loved this story. It's action packed, and has some awesome foreshadowing of what is to come for these SWAT wolves.
When Remy goes to New Orleans for a training exercise, he doesn't anticipate running into an old childhood friend. Well, he doesn't actually run into her -- he's drawn to her scent across the French Quarter. It's clear to everyone that she's his "ONE". Remy has some legitimate reasons why he has to stop seeing Triana, even though their heat factor is off the charts.
Triana and her mom run into some trouble of their own and Remy and his pack brothers are the only ones that can rescue them from the clutches of a drug dealer and his minions. Along the way, the mystery of Triana's father's murder opens up new information about the wolves and what might be coming in the future.
Every page of this book was terrific. There's action, there romantic heat and there's the fellowship of the pack which I absolutely adored. I just loved everything about Wolf Hunt and I'm really looking forward to what may be coming in the next books in the series.
I recommend this series if you are looking for a shifter story with a "true mate" theme and lots of action. This entire series and Wolf Hunt especially is just a lot of fun!
