The Hunter Book Review: A Wild Ride with Boston Beauties

A Wild Ride from Hate to Love: My Thoughts on The Hunter

summarizeEditor's Summary

I gotta say, The Hunter is a wild ride that'll keep you hooked from start to finish. This erotic romance novel is part of the Boston Beauties series, and while the first book is a bit of a letdown, it gets better with each subsequent installment. The dialogue is engaging, the characters are well-developed, and the plot is logical. I loved how the male characters were multi-dimensional and relatable. But what really stood out was the dialogue - it's so realistic that I found myself thinking, 'I'd probably respond the same way.' The author does a great job of exploring themes like trauma, relationships, and personal growth. The series has a great dynamic, with each book building on the previous one and introducing new characters and plotlines. I'm excited to see what the author has in store for us next.

I'll start by saying that in the Boston Beauties series, there are four books. What's interesting is the dynamics between them. The first one is the weakest, but it gets better with each subsequent book. The dialogue is engaging, the characters are well-developed, and the plot is logical. The male characters are particularly well-thought-out. They're not just one-dimensional but have a good side to them too. I loved the dialogue the most. I found myself thinking, 'I'd probably respond the same way.' It's rare for me to think that while reading, especially in this book. Almost all the dialogue made me think, 'What is he doing? Who came up with this stuff?' Despite the fact that everyone's ridiculously wealthy (it's a book for women, after all), the characters behave realistically. Okay, not really, but they're all flawed in their own ways. Each one has their own trauma, experiences, and logical explanations. So, let's get started.

Plot:

The story revolves around Hunter Fitzpatrick, a 19-year-old playboy. He's a clown, a beautiful one at that, but also occasionally smart. Everyone loves him because of his wealth, looks, and...ahem...endowment. His father, Gerald Fitzpatrick, one of the four wealthiest men in the country, finally had enough when his son's 20-minute porn video leaked online and became a national sensation. The decision was made quickly. Hunter's father gave him an ultimatum: abstain from sex and booze for three months, focus on his life, or lose his inheritance. Hunter relies heavily on his parents' money, so he's basically crippled without it. Another condition was that he'd live with his 'nanny,' 18-year-old Sailor Brennan. She's a sharpshooter, a future Olympic champion, intelligent, and strict like a boxing coach. She's also quite unattractive. Sailor is also the daughter of the crime lord, so she knows how to deal with scum.

I'm Sailor Brennan? – he asked directly, looking me up and down like I was a prostitute he'd just opened the door for and found didn't meet his standards.

This book is a wild ride from hate to love. There are plenty of ridiculous moments (there won't be as many in the next ones), and I only noticed them because I read the second and third books first, then this one. If you read them in order, the contrast is stark. Despite the story seeming clichéd, with characters too young for most readers, there's still a lot to discover in this book. The clichés are fewer than in other books of this genre.

Let's talk about the downsides – the most important thing, in my opinion, is that the bedroom scenes were a bit too much, especially for 18-year-olds. I get that they have hormones, but a teenager's psyche shouldn't consider this normal behavior. There are some nuances that aren't suitable for parents like Sailor's, who love their child above all else.

I'm from the fourth wealthiest family in the country. – He puffed out his chest, peering out from under his hat, giving him a ridiculous but charming, childlike appearance.

– You're lucky. Are there any other pointless details about your life you'd like to share before I leave? Favorite color? Maybe you could tell me about the age when you got your first baby tooth? – I thought to myself.

One thing that stood out to me was the way the author handled the characters' relationships. It's not always easy to make readers care about the characters, but L.J. Shane did a great job of making me invested in Hunter and Sailor's story. I loved watching their dynamic change from hate to love, and it was great to see them grow and develop as characters.

Another thing that I appreciated was the way the author tackled some heavier themes, like trauma and abuse. It's not always easy to write about these topics, but L.J. Shane handled them with sensitivity and care. It was great to see the characters deal with their issues in a realistic way, and it added depth to the story.

Of course, no book is perfect, and there were some things that I didn't like as much. As I mentioned earlier, the bedroom scenes were a bit too much for my taste, and there were some moments that felt a bit clichéd. However, overall, I thought the book was well-written and engaging, and I would definitely recommend it to fans of the genre.

Overall, I would give this book 4 out of 5 stars. It's a wild ride from hate to love, and it's a great addition to the Boston Beauties series. If you're a fan of erotic romance, contemporary literature, or just a good story, then this book is definitely worth checking out.

Verdict:

Recommended (but not necessary) reading!

Go for it!
