    Hunting Human is a very compelling emotional read Be warned this book can be brutal I truly enjoyed this book I couldn t put it down even though I found the story with a back in fourth relationship between the hero and heroine and the heroine Beth at times very shellfish I just had to keep reading about this human lady being put in a brutal situation with a pack of wolves Then after she meets Braden Beth is put in another dangerous situation that could cost her and hero Braden s relationship I d [...]

    It s always such a pleasure to come across an unexpected gem From the summary blurb of Hunting Human, I figured it might be entertaining, but from the very beginning, it exceeded my expectations.A few years ago, Beth and her best friend Rachel were kidnapped by werewolves during their backpacking trip across Europe Rachel didn t survive the ordeal Beth did, but she emerged as something very different And it s than the fact she was turned into the very thing that attacked her the trauma cut her [...]

    Hunting Human is at times your typical werewolf meets human he can t resist story and others an emotionally intense story about a girl who lost her closest friend sister from another mother in a brutal attack We are introduced to Beth Elizabeth Lizzy and Rachel through Beth s flashbacks of their trip through Europe Liz being the responsible one of the two As usual, she watched over Rachel while she partied a bit too hard at a local bar While there, they attracted the wrong kind of attention from [...]

    3.5 StarsThis was a very decent wolf book and we all know how picky I am with my wolves The descriptions of the transformations shifting were very interesting and the details were fab I loved how the author explained things when the humans changed into wolves.I did think that they re minds should have gone all canine instead of retaining their human ones but that s just me It was still very nice.The only problem I had with this book was the romance part It seemed a bit rushed.Basically it s Girl [...]

    I really liked the first half of the book The action was intense and the storyline seemed to be going somewhere good, but then for me it seemed to fizzle out Braden was probably meant to be an alpha male but came across COMPLETELY as a beta male I was interested in his brother Chase s story, to be honest Beth flashed hot and cold and that irked me a lot I would have loved to have seen her written as a strong, take no prisoners woman but instead I felt like she was slightly wimpy, afraid of hers [...]

    Reviewed by Rabid ReadsA great, well rounded werewolf book full of non stop action with a few surprising plot twists that ll keep you guessing The characters are engaging and they each have their own unique traits that ll leave you feeling like you want to be their best friend The side characters are equally just as lovable and the bad guy in this novel is particularly dark and warped For me, the only thing missing was werewolf action but I m hard to satisfy on that front so I won t hold it aga [...]

    This book packed a surprising wallop Beth s emotional journey as she deals with the aftermath of the brutal attack that left her a werewolf and killed her best friend is hard and sometimes ugly She s walled herself off from the world around her as she tries to come to grips with what she is Her attraction to Braden, which she fights with everything inside her, begins to thaw her out some but she has a hard time trusting anybody but herself.While there was a strong focus on Braden and Beth s blos [...]
    Literary Ames Against GR Censorship
    A brilliant 4 or even 5 star unexpected horror of a beginning and the events surrounding that, which slipped with the romantic relationship After Braden assumed the worst and dumped his traumatised and tasered lover in the trunk of his car Beth hates him, as did I and then all previous chemistry between the characters plus his personality disappears He just becomes man she must eventually wind up He falls into the background becoming scenery as Chase comes to the foreground whose personality was [...]

    This is a Quickie Review For the full review, please visit The Romanceaholic.You know I adore a good werewolf story, and if one of the main characters was changed against their will Well that s merely icing on my literary cake.Overall, I think this was solid addition to any werewolf romance collection While there were certainly personality traits that made me want to stab Beth with a rusty spoon on occasion, I did feel that a lot of her confusion and reactions did fit rather well with her PTSD d [...]

    Interesting story and unique take on the werewolf theme I liked the romance, at first I thought it was going to be predictable, but it took an interesting turn The writing flows quickly, good secondary characters and a great bad guy I m looking forward to following the series.
    Judy & Marianne from Long and Short Reviews
    It takes a pretty special shifter book to hold my attention in a market that s been glutted with shifter books This one did to the point that I thought about it when I wasn t reading it, and wanted to be reading instead of doing pretty much anything else That s not to say the book was perfect, it wasn t But it was pretty darn close.We start with a strong, independent heroine who s clearly a nurturer and protector in the beginning, she s taking care of her less strong best friend in a situation t [...]

    My thoughts Fantastic story I fell fast and didn t put it down until it was over I love the fresh new take on the whole werewolf idea If this first book is any indication of how great future books will be I can t wait Incredible characters Each of the characters has been well thought out and lovingly designed It was easy to become completely engrossed in the lives on the page I was fully invested by the time I had turned the page a couple times If you are into shifters this book is for YOU Eliza [...]

    A really good shifter book is hard to lay your hands on and I ve got to admit, it s been awhile since I ve read one Except for one thing, I would have given this book a 5 star rating I felt like the author did not follow through on the ending Mostly, I felt like Braden was intelligent than Alvarez gave him credit for I know there needed to be a dramatic ending but that s all it was, a dramatic ending that just felt rushed and a bit out of character Now, what I loved about the story, everything [...]

    It s been a while since I read a paranormal that felt fresh For that reason, I was especially happy to read Hunting Human as I dove into the paranormal side of paranormal or romantic suspense for this month s TBR challenge This book is a 2011 release from Carina Press, and after reading it, I was rather disappointed to find that author Amanda E Alvarez has apparently not released any other books That s a real shame because even if Hunting Human isn t perfect, I d give it a very solid B My romanc [...]

    I had a couple of friends recommend this book to me, so I thought I better check it out and I ended up being glad that I did.I liked Beth, you knew she was running from something bad, she was so skittish you wanted to know what it was I liked how Braden didn t come on strong with Beth, she wouldn t have responded well to that Their romance at the start had me smiling with how sweet it was.I also really liked Braden s family They were fun and I loved how they didn t have very many boundaries and [...]

    4 and a half stars This book completely suprised me I thought it was a great take on werewolves The first half of the book is just about two people getting to know one another We know that Beth, the heroine, has a very frightening past, but it is slowly revealed I liked the progression of their relationship There was no seeing you at first sight and the next day they are in bed that is getting old The second half of the book drug to me but the fact that both hero and heroine make mistakes is ref [...]

    Holly
    The shifted dynamics here really worked for me Even though I was angry at Braden for the way he treated Beth at first, I understood his reasons for being suspicious of her Likewise, Beth s anger and mistrust worked in context What didn t work was the way Beth blew hot and cold She d snuggle up to Braden willingly enough, then push him away, disgusted with him as much as her own reactions to him That made no sense.
    Jenny Schwartz
    Romantic suspense with a dark paranormal edge but so well balanced with friendly, humorous supporting cast that it was a totally enjoyable read Think Harlequin category romance crossed with urban fantasy Yup, exactly my cup of tea Nice take on werewolves and lots of potential to develop a series here s hoping
