Audiobook Review: Wanted by the Hunter (Xarc’n Warriors, #2). ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Wanted by the Hunter by Lynnea Lee

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

NATALIE

A knight in shining loincloth

That’s what I’m looking for. I’ve been lusting after the Xarc’n hunters since they landed on Earth, offering to help us fight the alien bugs. These seven feet tall, musclebound warriors are horned, clawed, and fanged—the ultimate protectors. And Rajiv’k is the perfect specimen.

Just one problem: I can’t fall in love. Nope! Not after the crappy relationships I’ve had. I refuse to deal with a broken heart during the bugpocalypse. No way! So I keep things transactional, his protection for my companionship. What can go wrong, right?
…
RAJIV’K

Hunters are supposed to revel in the physical act of fighting and killing the scourge. But not me. I kill them, they multiply, I kill them, they multiply. What’s the point? Why spend my life saving worlds I didn’t care about?
Then, she comes along. Little human Natalie fires up my need to claim and protect. And suddenly, I have a reason to fight. Natalie is mine. She just doesn’t know it yet.
Wanted by the Hunter

Alien man meat!

The heroine: Natalie – Natalie is cousin to Alice from Claimed by the Hunter. She was slashed by one of the alien insects that invaded Earth and now walks with a pronounced limp. She is intelligent and has a desire to always be learning new things.

The Hero: Rajiv’k – Friend and peer to Kaj’k from the first book. Rajiv’k is a Xarc’n hunter on Earth to fight the Alien insects that have invaded Earth. The Xarc’n hunters are all clones which were created to fight the insect swarms that were unleashed by their creators after the swarms got out of their control and started to go from world to world destroying everything in their path.

The Story: This book starts at an earlier time than the first book. All the way back to the time when Natalie was injured. Though it soon catches up and we see the time when Kaj’k calls Rajiv’k to protect Natalie, knowing that Rajiv’k has been working on some things that may help Natalie’s injury. Rajiv’k knows immediately after meeting Natalie that she is his mate.

This book was told in dual points of view via dual narration. The narration was done by Troy Duran and Kiera Stevens. I love Troy Duran, who has a deep sexy voice which is perfect for the huge alpha alien males in this series. Kiera Stevens has a young, intelligent sounding and feminine voice which matches Natalie perfectly.

I liked Natalie, she was smart and spunky despite her injury and she had been crushing on the Xarc’n hunters since they came to Earth. The story was good and I loved the characters.
