While trying to control a new, unforseen side to his magic, the last thing he expects is to be consumed with thoughts of a pink haired girl with innocent grey eyes. Bewitched and confused with the feelings Lexi stirs within him, Twitch is blindsided by the danger that surrounds him. What he thought he … thought he knew isn’t as solid as he believes.
With enemies drawing near, threatening both their lives, Twitch must master his new magic to survive, or be forever crippled by what has been unleashed.

I was incredibly excited for this book by Claire Marta. Twitch has owned my heart since the beginning of the series. This however has been my least favorite book in the series. It’s still a really great read, just not the same as the other ones.
The main characters had some great depth to them. Twitch already had excellent development from the entirety of the series. Lexi was a refreshing character and it was easy to fall in love with her. I found a few of the secondary characters a little flatter than I normally find ones in Claire Marta’s books but still well done and useful to the story. It’s the world building that really lowered the score for me. It didn’t have the same robustness as what has been developed in the Hunter Chronicles to date. There were some amazing aspects to it, however it just didn’t get all the way there for me.
The actual story was very well done. As always the author delivers on twists and originality. It kept me engaged and it was a very fast paced book. While this one didn’t hit all the notes for me, I’m still looking forward to even more of the series and all of the author’s words.
Finally we get to spend time in Twitch’s head! He has been a character I desperately wanted to know more about. The little pervy mage learns so many things about himself and those he surrounds himself with, I thought his head would explode. Mine nearly did! Fantastic addition to the series!
5 Action packed stars
If you have read the previous books in the Hunter Chronicles you will be familiar with Twitch, the pervy techno mage with a sweet tooth that you cant help but love, here he gets his own story and it may not be what you were expecting!
I think this is the best book in the series so far, it was fast paced and filled with dramatic, action packed scenes and we discover a side to Twitch we never knew existed. Their is a slight overlap with the previous book, but nothing is rehashed as this focusses on Twitch and Lexi’s viewpoint.
Twitch finds his depth in this story, he falls in love and finds his destiny and both are huge learning experiences for him. Both Twitch and Lexi have a sweet naivety but with an inner strength that gets them through some very tricky situations.
New characters Nelly and Zook were ones to watch – loved their dynamic and their purpose in the story.
Lots of new secrets are revealed and I cannot wait to see how things develop further in the series.
Although Twitch is the 5th book in the Hunter Chronicles & you should technically read the others , i personally think because this book focuses soley on Twitch you could pick up the threads & read it as a stand alone . Twitch has returned to London after losing his twin sister , hes not in a good place & is trying to help his cousin Jasmine stay out of the clutches of the master vampire of London . Falling in love was something he thought would never happen & scares him to death as those he loves tend to end up in danger or dead . He is being taught to get a grip on his magic & to stop fearing the dark side (heard that somewhere before ) but trouble has a way of finding him . This book is filled with plenty of secrets, action , demons galore ,vampires & even a dragon & swear words that will make you smile even whiole you are thinking where can i use that . Claire Marta’s series just keeps going from strength to strength & i can’t wait for next one
I’m Team Twitch all the way!!! Ms. Marta you have stepped up your game. This series keeps getting better and better with no signs of slowing down. Finally Twitch gets the spotlight, not just a sidekick for Jasmine, in fact Jasmine is only mentioned in passing. Twitch is learning how to harness his new powers and they frankly scare the crap out of him. They are so dark he is afraid they will consume him. In walks Lexi a Succumbus demon in all of pink-haired glory. Twitch is on a mission to protect Lexi from a more sinister demon with the help of his friends. Along the way fireworks explode between Twitch and Lexi. Will Twitch be able to harness his new power whilst still getting the girl?
** I voluntarily read an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review **
An action packed story I couldn’t put down. I couldn’t wait to read Twitchs story and was not dissapointed. Falling for Lexi and what and who she is Twitch can’t help himself, with his powers getting stronger as well and finding out he’s a guardian. This is a hot read with it all I can’t wait to read more from this series and seeing where it goes next. A must read series that won’t dissapoint you.
This is book 5 of Claire Marta’s hunters chronicles series. in this book the reader finally gets to see Twitch more than in prior books. And Claire does not disappoint us in creating another awesome book as well create characters that the reader will love.
“My father always tells me scars mean you survived something and they make you stronger inside. ”
In book 5, the two MCs, Twitch and Lexi, face their scars and face learning who they truly are on the ibside, nor letting outside dictate.
Along with the depth we see of Twitch, the reader also meets some other great characters such as Zook, Nelly, and Fang.
I can’t wait to see what Claire Marta has in store for her series, as well as in store for all her characters.
highly recommend this book to any PNR reader!
