The Rogue Hunter (Argeneau Vampires, Book 10)
|
Customer ReviewsGreat but a few inconsistencies.I really liked this book. It left me wondering with the connection that Sam and Mortimer had with their parents and siblings if, perhaps, his brothers wouldn't be her sister's mates. A bit convenient but there has to be some mystical reason that immortals are connected to mortal women. Why not similar fates? As usual the sex was HOT and the romance wonderful. Super fun with the Vampires! I saw a few inconsistensies with this book and that's the only reason I didn't give it a five. It tends to pull me right out of a story to read, "she stared at the front of his T-shirt" then moments later read how she unbuttoned said shirt and rand her fingers over his bare chest. Things like that tend to pull me right out of the story and slap me in the face. Besides the inconsistencies this was a great read and I loved reading about the extended immortal clan, not just the Argeneaus. Plus it was nice to know that there are a few immortals who are just "normal folk". All those rich powerful immortals tend to be a bit intimidating. I thoroughly enjoyed the continuation of the Argeneau family chronicles--and meeting new folks within their ranks! What a disappointment I'm an avid Lynsay Sands fan, so it pains me to say that this was the worst book she's ever written. Thin plot, little humor, a male lead with NO back story (usually LS does this well), and no sex till nearly the end of the book. Ms. Sands is known for writing darn good erotic encounters, but don't hold your breath anticipating this one. Worst of all, no happily ever after! The Rogue Hunter I usually finish one of her books in a day, but this one took me four because I kept getting bored and setting it down. Here's just one example of how poorly this story was written. The male lead is Garret Mortimer. Not only do all of the characters insist on referring to him as Morty or Mort, the author actually wrote a scene where Samantha tells him he doesn't seem like a Garret to her, and that Mortimer suits him better. In any other romance novel, that would have been an insult. In my opinion, there's nothing sexy about the name "Mortimer". Lynsay Sands writes the best Vampire books. They will make you laugh and are so romantic!! Absolutely fabulous!!! Lynsay Sands is in fine form with this novel. Her trademark humor and great character development is apparent. Mortimer is horrified when he realises that Sam- a very skinny and clumsy human- is his lifemate. He's mental image of the perfect mate is Jessica Rabbit and is upset that he ends up with Olive Oyl. You meet another Argeneau family member and other possible heriones for future novels. If you love Lynsay Sands other works, this one will not disappoint. 22 reviews found.
