The Hunt

The Hunt (Dark Touch, #2)The Hunt by Amy Meredith

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Something is hunting. Something that will kill to get what it wants. And it isn't human. Eve knows that her supernatural powers are called for, but she'd rather focus on dating than demons and gorgeous Luke is, frankly, pretty distracting. He's already a friend - but could he be something more? Do Luke and Eve really have a future? And with demons on the hunt, will either of them live long enough to find out?

Ahem. Did I mention that in my review of Shadowsit was not really that good? Well, I may have to eat my words. Sorry.

This book is actually quite good. The action gets going pretty much straight away, and the fashion obsession is dimmed down slightly. Luke has become a part of the gang, and starts picking up the lingo preety quickly, which is very, very confusing. As some of the book is from his point of view, and he and Eve start fancying eachother. Awwwww. Cue demons, all set to drink blood and cause havoc, and you know what? The plotline is not as predictable as it could be. The 'bad guy' is not obvious from the start, isn't on the 'suspects' list or anything similar.

But the best thing about this book? Luke and Eve don't get together at the end. They have all this attraction, and nothing happens at the end of the book. They just go:(direct quote from Luke, looking into Eve's eyes)Some girls are more special than others. And WALKS AWAY.

And that, my dear friends, is why this book is sooooo much better than the other one. Because they don't get what they want.
