The Renegade Hunter (Argeneau #12) by Lynsay Sands
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
The Argeneau family has a secret… one of their own is a rogue vampire!
🧛🏻
Nicholas Argeneau was once a successful hunter who went after rogue vampires who broke the immortal law. Except no one has mentioned his name in the last fifty years, not since he turned into a rogue himself. But once a hunter, always a hunter. When Nicholas sees a bloodthirsty sucker terrifying a woman, it’s second nature for him to come to her rescue. He had no idea he would also want to kiss her senseless…
💋
One minute Josephine Willan is taking in a breath of fresh air, and the next sharp fangs are heading straight for her neck! Luckily, a gorgeous stranger saves her life… and gets locked up for his troubles. Can a man who kisses so lovingly and passionately really have committed the crime he’s accused of? Jo isn’t so sure… and she’s determined to prove that this renegade hunter is worth fighting for.
The Renegade Hunter
Bad Breath Boy is the villain in this one!

The heroine: Jo – sister to Sam, who is life mate to Garrett Mortimer. Jo has trouble believer Mortimer, Decker and Bricker are really in a band and thinks they are hiding something. She can’t quite figure them out while at a party for her sister and Garrett. She thinks they might be gay since they all seem a bit to perfect.
The Hero: Nicholas Argeneau – a former enforcer, he turned rogue 50 years ago after his best friend Decker caught him with blood on his mouth holding the body of a pregnant woman. Despite being a rogue himself, Nicholas hasn’t given up hunting rogues, especially Leonis livius, the evil rogue who keeps having a ton of “sons” which he repeatedly sends out to do dastardly deeds against Lucien and his enforcers.
The Story: Nicholas is chasing Ernie, one of Leonis’ progeny in hopes of being led to Leonis himself when he sees Ernie sneaking in to the enforcer’s estate during a party. He left his phone in his car so can’t call the enforcers to let them know that rogues are sneaking into the party on the undercarriage of some of the delivery vehicles.
Jo takes a walk on the grounds and is attacked by Ernie. Nicholas comes to the rescue and notices immediately that Jo is his life mate. I liked the storyline here. It was a bit different than most considering that Nicholas is Rogue and most of the books are about the enforcers. There was plenty of romance, steam and lots of intrigue. I really enjoyed the story.
The book is told in dual points of view, though it only has one narrator which takes off points for the narration in my opinion. The narration was done by Kirby Heyborne who does the narration on quite a few of the Argeneau series. He is a good reader and has a pleasant voice.
