Publisher's Summary

Christopher Argent lives in the shadows as the empire's most elite assassin. Emotion is something he tossed away years ago, making him one of the most clear-eyed, coldhearted, wealthiest, and therefore untouchable men in London.

But when his latest target turns out to be London's own darling, Millicent LeCour, Christopher's whole world is turned upside down. Overwhelmed by her stunning combination of seduction and innocence, Christopher cannot complete the mission. She has made him feel again. Now he will do anything to save her life, so he can claim her as his own....

When Millie learns what Christopher was hired to do, she is torn between the fear in her heart and the fire in her soul. Putting herself in this notorious hunter's arms may be her only path to safety - even if doing so could be the deadliest mistake she's ever made. But how can she resist him? As the heat between her and Christopher burns out of control, danger lurks in the shadows. Is their desire worth the risk? Only the enemy knows what fate has in store....

Everyone Loves A Strong Silent Alpha Male

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Definitely!

What other book might you compare The Hunter to and why?

Darkest Before Dawn, by Maya Banks ... Hancock is another Villain/Hero. Personally I like these type of men. They fight evil the only way they know how, single-handed. They give no quarter, trust no one, & are totally shocked to learn they have a heart.

Which scene was your favorite?

When Christopher Argent was begging Millie to wake and he proceeds to spill his heart to her.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

If only I could. But I've already listened to it three times this year.

Any additional comments?

I cried for the boy who lost his Mother. I got caught up in the thrill of the hunt. I feared for the damsel in distress. Finally, I loved the man who found his way to the light.

I love this series!!

I have a feeling that I'm going to give every book in this series a 5 star review. I love the writing that makes me feel as if I'm there in that time and place. I love the Hero and heroine and all of the characters surrounding them. I love how each book has mesmerized my senses.
Yeah, I loved this book!!
Derek Perkins is a wonderful narrator!! He's perfect for this series.

Breathless!

What about Derek Perkins’s performance did you like?

I could listen to Derek Perkin's all day, everyday. I can see in my mind every mood, every character. He is awesome.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Too bad I had to sleep or I would have done this in one setting.

Just get it!!

Love the story! Just like the first book at times it is hard and harsh but who cares when everything fall into place.
Captivated me from start to finish!
Christopher Argent is one hard SOB that only Millie can soften.
Now on to the third book.

Derek Perkins does a good job of it, I really like his voice.

Action, romance and mystery all in one

It was a very good read. Liked the hero's character though an unlikely one for a romance book. KB did a fabulous job showing how he became a respectable man and made it very believable. Tough job well done. The villain's character was a bit predictable as to whom it was but don't let that deter you. Still a lovely romance.

Adventurous & Exotic!

Enjoyed the reader very much! It very much kept our attention & wanted to quickly get back to it!

Book 2 is even better

I found this book surpasses book one and I'm excited to start book three. So far I haven't read one of this author's book I haven't enjoyed immensely

cannot wait to read book 3

it's amazing I finish this book in two days it's so very very hard to put down

This book was way above my expectations.

This book was way above my expectations.
The narrator's voice made the story flow so perfectly. Well worth the listen!

credit worthy!

well drawn characters, interesting plot, good heat. Better than most historical romances I've read recently.

The most tortured hero

…has his frozen heart thawed. I couldn’t stop listening to this one. Derek Perkins is fantastic, as always. Watching the hero’s emotions crack through is heartwarming.

I’m deducting a star, as I have for others in the series, because while one character has undergone dramatic character growth, the other hasn’t changed. That’s not a critique I make for the sake of it — it would really add something to have both change over time.

Having said that, this book is great. There are twists and turns, action, and the steamy scenes contribute to the story. Highly recommend

loved it!

I was so looking forward to listening to this book, following on from The Highwayman which was awesome that it interesting that I found it hard to get into initially, but I am so pleased that I persevered.

Wow! What a story and the chemistry between Millicent and Christopher was almost too hot to handle, especially for one filled with so much ice!

I had to immediately listen to the beginning again as the ending was just incredible.

Thank you Kerrigan for another wonderful book and Derek for an exceptional narration. I can't wait to move onto book 3!

Highly recommended!

another brilliant story

Loved it. I couldn't stop listening. I will definitely be listening to the rest of this series. Derek Perkins is a very good narrator.
