Hunted

By: Rebecca Zanetti

Narrated by: Karen White

Ready or Not

Moira Dunne is a witch - the quantum physics kind. Time and space are her playthings. Which might explain why her one-night stand from a hundred years ago has turned up to "claim" her - and request her family's assistance with the war he's brewing. But the more she learns about Connlan Kayrs, the more she comes to think this is normal behavior for him....

There's Nowhere to Hide

When Conn and Moira tumbled on the moonlit grass, Conn hadn't meant to mark her as his mate for all time. She was only 20! But it wasn't easy to wait for her. It was even harder to forget her. So when he finally returns for his wicked-hot witch, he's ready to let the sparks flying. Even if he burns up in flames.....

Great story

Great story. Kept me on the edge of my seat for the entire story. Very compelling series.

totally and completely addicted to this series!

Love this series and so glad I'm going back to the beginning to listen from book 1 all the way through.
Story gets 5 stars, narration is a 3.5.

Moira and Conn are explosive together. Two very powerful and dominant personalities and both like to be in control. Loved their chemistry and how the whole series plays out.
It's an addicting series and hard not to stop once you start!!

Another great sequel

This is mainly the story about Maura and Kahn. I realize that these can be stand alone novels but in my opinion you need to read them sequentially.
Story 5/5
Steam 5/5
Narration 5/5
Overall 5/5

An Alpha Solider and a powerful Witch...

...what's not to love. I have enjoyed each and every Dark Protectors books. I do recommend reading/listening to this series in order, so you can get the full meaning behind the series. I have waited for Conn and Moria's story since I first read Fated book one of the DP.

Moira is a witch that our Alpha solider Conn mated 100 years ago by mistake. She was young and had much to learn and even thou Conn knew she was his forever he agreed to leave her with her family so she can learn to become the powerful witch she was meant to be. Now that time has past and our Alpha solider is ready to take back what he wishes he never let go of, Moira. This is an on again off again love story. It takes place in Ireland, Moira's home, and away from the rest of his family.

I didn't feel this story focused on Conn and Moira as much as it should have but I do love how this book answers some unanswered question from both Fated and Claimed, Talen and Dage's stories. I hope you enjoy the book as much as I did. RZ out did herself once again.

Best Story/Narration combo I've encountered!

AudioBook Review: Overall Stars 5 Narration 5 Story 5

With Dage and Talen finding their mates in Emma and Cara, the one brother who has been mated (but separated) for a century from his lady love is Connlan. A one-night stand that went horribly pear shaped has separated Conn from Moira, and the witch is not interested in a mating of ‘obligation’. She doesn’t realize how Conn actually admires and wants her beyond the mating bond. So, after all this time, they face off in a bar. It sounds like a bad joke, but these two face off with sparks, words and a surprising rescue attempt.

Part of Conn’s determination to reunite with Moira is his over-the-top protectiveness, but he really does enjoy her, and wants to shore up the alliance. Moira has the gold medal AND the world cup championship in the ‘dig your heels in” medley. With the alliance fracturing and every sect taking sides, the Kurjans are more of a threat than ever, to the Realm and to the mates.

The action and battles in this story are non-stop, with little bits of information and intention being revealed, new threats emerging and very telling scenes with Kalin and his anger, bitterness and sociopathic tendencies. Zanetti brings several elements to the table: the witches utilize the laws of physics to perform their magic, the rush to cure the virus that is so damaging to shifters and others, the backstories on the shifter’s defection, the fear for Katie, Cara’s pregnancy and Janey’s continued relationship with her dream friend and her efforts to ‘make nice’ with Kalin…it never ends!

Moira and Conn are wonderful together: he’s so very patient with her acting out, and she’s very used to being able to handle herself, and fight FOR what she believes in: will she be able to deal? In the meantime, she’s worried about Conn’s true feelings, unwilling to allow herself to feel for him. Newsflash darlin’! You already are head over heels for him, you just don’t want to admit it until he does. They are wonderful together, even if she is a bit harder to get to know and enjoy than the other mates. She’s that new friend you don’t quite know yet.

Karen White has gone above and beyond in this story: Moira’s Irish lilt and Conn’s decidedly alpha-warrior male, struggling to not appear smug in his “I Told You So”s are both spot on and never miss. This series and her performance are what each listener should demand of their audio: clear, concise, decidedly unique to the characters AND their personalities, with subtle inflection changes, pauses and insets, including one that I can only describe as a ‘verbal eyeroll” (parents of teens will know this one) that enhance and present the emotional elements, add to tension and provide readers with an “I’m there” feeling.

Hands down, one of the best combinations of action-packed engaging story and narrative performance that I have encountered, this is a series that is solidly setting itself into my favorites list.

I received an AudioBook copy of the title via Audible Communications for purpose of honest review. I was not compensated for this review: all conclusions are my own responsibility.
