The Hunted (Vampire Navy SEAL: Sam & Layla) by S.B. Alexander – Review by Dr. Anya Schultz

The Hunted by S.B. Alexander
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I just loved this new take on this paranormal romance! Sam is a vampire who works for the Vampire Navy Seals and is sought after for his potent blood. Layla is a vampire hunter searching for Sam, but not sure why. Layla and her sisters were hired to kidnap Sam. On the night they attempt to do this, all hell breaks loose when their toxin doesn’t completely work to subdue the vampires and they piss off not only Sam but another ruthless of their kind. Sam lets them live, but he knows they will return to him for his help for a handful of reasons. The other aspect plaguing the situation is that Sam feels something he doesn’t understand for the human. These problems come together to create a very steamy, action-packed tale.
I truly enjoyed not only the plot of this story, but the characters. The plot discusses the supernatural world differently than many others and when you have read a million of these types of books, a new take is refreshing. The characters had personalities that jumped off the page. You couldn’t help but love the badass sisters even though they made some stupid decisions along the way. Sam, even in all of his uncontrollable inner monologue, you could see how deep he cared for Layla and how that grew. However, the best part about this was how the relationship developed: dysfunctions to hot as hell to yearning to OMG! I am truly excited for the next book!
