Book #Review ~ Huntress and the Thorn Court by D.C. Gambel @AuthorDCGambel ~ (The World of the Hunter Order, Book #1) #UF

 

What happens at the Thorn Court stays at the Thorn Court.

Isabel is not your average princess. All she wants to do is keep peace among the preternatural community, but when she mistakenly kills an innocent werewolf, the cost of peace may be a steeper price than she’s willing to pay.

Gideon is a beast of a man. As the pack alpha he has to be. When an opportunity practically lands in his lap, he’s driven to seize it, even if it means taking Isabel, a princess of The Order, as his prisoner.

When attraction blooms, Isabel has no choice but to resist the sexy alpha. If she doesn’t, her very future at the order could be in jeopardy.

My Review:

As a member of The Order, Isabel has a certain image to uphold. Isabel is also the princess, next in line to lead The Order. One fateful night, her life gets upended when she accidental kills an innocent young wolf. Now a prisoner of the Thorn Court, Isabel finds herself surrounded by those she typically helps keep in line.

As the pack alpha, Gideon has a responsibility to his members to make those who transgress, pay. Even if it means punishing a huntress of The Order. Her being the princess doesn't absolve her of guilt. Gideon also realizes he can use her as bait to flesh out some possible traitors in his pack.

Neither expected their chemistry to be off the charts. A huntress isn't permitted to mate with otherworldly beings and an alpha must mate with another wolf. Nothing about these two is typical. Resistance of their mutual attraction almost seems futile but resist they must. Nothing good can come of a union between a huntress princess and an alpha, can it?

Huntress and the Thorn Court is a great book. I enjoyed the character development and the blossoming passion between Isabel and Gideon. All of the characters were written well. The chemistry between Isabel and Gideon was evident right from the very start, even though their pairing may be forbidden. Partnering together to flush out a potential traitor seems innocent enough but toss them in close proximity to one another and all bets may be off. The world building was awesome, and the descriptions were vivid, and I felt like I was there in the story. I can't wait for the next book!

I was provided a copy of this book.
