Claire Marta continues to deliver fresh and original twists and I’m in love with it. I didn’t expect the path to go where it did, which made it even better. The best type of author for me is the kind that can make me both hate and love a character and Claire Marta delivers!
The character development in this book is flawless. None of these characters are one-dimensional. They can be diabolical, selfish, loving and everything in between. I love seeing the push/pull she creates with them. Not to mention Claire Marta delivers on chemistry, wow those scenes are hot! Especially when adding the spice of BDSM into it. The world building continues to become even better; everything was so clear I felt like I was dropped right into the pages.
Claire Marta kept the storyline moving to the point I devoured the words. I couldn’t do anything other than read it in one sitting; I needed to know what happened. I love it when I can be shocked by a twist or so angry at characters I want to shout at them like they’re real. The author brought it completely on both aspects. It felt like I had ran a marathon of emotions by the time I finished. This series is an absolute favorite and the author’s words are addictive.
5 stars for a twisted and hot must read!
Arghhhh!! I have devoured every book in this series, including this one. I actually liked Asier from the previous books- but the dude is way sneaky and underhanded! I know shock horror- lol. Jasmine just kind of hit a plateau in this one, instead of being a big girl and just dealing with her situation she fell hook line and sinker for a master manipulator who is up to no good!
Side note – the Doctor is definitely playing a long game! Love it!
Book 4 in the Hunter Chronicles (I recommend you read the others first to get the full back story of the characters)
Jasmine has been left high and dry by Eric, with only one place to turn for help. she must enter the lair of the Master Vampire of London, Asier! I loved Asier when we first met him, in that glimpse he was charming, gentlemanly, kind – well here we get to meet him in all his glory, dark and dangerous!
Jasmine is trying to hold on to her job with Scotland Yard after being reinstated, and she and the team are investigating a new drug that has entered the city with devastating effects. As always she is never far away from trouble!
I have enjoyed watching the characters develop, I would like to see how Jasmine changes now that she knows she has a magical side, and look forward to seeing what’s happening with Twitch and Lexi!
You know that book that you can’t wait to get your hands on? The one that you beg the author to finish? This is that book! I could not wait to read Asier and Jasmine’s part. Now I can’t wait to see what will happen since Jasmine isn’t just addicted she’s addictive as well. (Read it and you’ll understand!)
OMG this series just keeps getting better & better how Claire Marta keeps it fresh i don’t know how but i’m loving it .Some people are addicted to chocolate . some to drink , poor Jasmine needs a vampires bite to keep her sane & pain free . Asier, joint master of London with Jasmines ex , Eric , is only to happy to get one over on his old friend & help but ends up as hooked on Jasmine as Eric was , only his involves a lot more kink.The secret Dr Dasyurus is again wreaking havoc without anyone being any the wiser who he/she is. A complete book that leaves more questions than it solves , what is Mark , (think i know ) whats Lexi to Asier . Can’t wait for more ,bring it on
First off I’m #TeamEric all the way I can’t believe Ms. Marta would write a book in the series and not include Eric. I can’t believe I’m saying this but, it worked. After they part ways in Prague Jasmine is so over Eric and his controlling ways. But Jasmine has a little problem, she is addicted to vampire bites. And when I say addicted she’s going through withdraws because she hasn’t been bitten since Eric, more than two weeks prior. Twitch comes to the rescue and makes Jasmine seek out a vampire to bite her. She turns to Asier, the Master of the City of London. Asier has his own agenda when it comes to Jasmine. It starts out with he wants to make Eric jealous and bite and bed Jasmine, but then their relationship morphs into something more. Asier owns several clubs throughout London, and this particular club where he meets up with Jasmine has BDSM elements to it. He knows that Jasmine is into BDSM because of her playtime with Eric and him in Prague. There is a case Jasmine and her team is investigating that coincides with Asier’s interests. He wants to corner the market on this new drug The Serpent’s Kiss and Jasmine’s team wants to eradicate it. Will Asier manipulate Jasmine’s need for his bite and take advantage of the situation or will they develop mutual respect for each other?
I highly recommend this book but you need to read the first three books in the series to fully understand The Serpent’s Kiss. I can’t wait to see where Ms. Marta takes this series. And please, please bring Eric back.
** I voluntarily read an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review **
Omg this series has got me hooked. Jasmine hurt sad after Eric is in desperate need of help. Aiser is not the best man to trust he always gets his way and he wants Jasmine. I can’t wait to read book 5 of this series and would highly recommend as a must read.
Loved it, fabulous series!!!
