Review Detail

I found this book to be a really quick and engaging read, especially if you like paranormal stories with action and tension right from the start. Hunted follows Tasi, an eighteen-year-old dhampyr who has spent most of her life hidden away, training for a world she never thought she would actually have to face. That changes fast when everything in her life falls apart and she suddenly has to protect her younger sister while being hunted.

Tasi is a strong main character. She is stubborn, protective, and clearly shaped by her past, which makes her reactions feel believable. What I liked most about her is that she is not just focused on survival, but also on keeping her sister safe, especially since Emily has no idea what is really going on. That adds emotional weight to the story because Tasi is carrying a lot on her own.

The plot moves quickly, which makes it easy to stay interested. Once the danger starts, it does not really slow down. The mystery of why they are being hunted keeps things tense, and the journey to find the ally in New York gives the story direction. It feels like there is always something at stake, which helps keep the momentum going.

The dynamic between Tasi and Emily is also important. Since Emily is unaware of their true nature, there is this constant pressure building around what will happen when the truth comes out. That tension adds another layer to the story beyond just the action and danger.

Overall, I found Hunted to be a solid start to a series. It mixes action, mystery, and family responsibility in a way that keeps you reading, and it sets up a larger story that could get even more intense in future books.
