I wasn't a huge fan of the main character and I still don't understand what is so special about what she is. Don't think I'll be continuing this series.

This was definitely a good first book. I wasn't expecting bears but I'm all for it!
This is up there with favourite books that have shifters in there. 
Straight on to book two for me šŸ˜Š

I just honestly couldn't get into it. I felt like everything happened too fast, and there was no weight. Characters met and seemed to instantly have a relationship ... again, no weight.

Everything felt really, really 2-dimensional.

I had no idea I was re-listening to this exactly two years after I first heard it until I went to add to this review.

Definitely got better with each page.. but Ari was eh.

Hunted by Shadows was an interesting book. In it you will meet, Ari - yes, the eh girl. She's a werewolf that doesn't like shifting.. because she's a shadowborn. Now this whole shadow business makes me think of vampire academy but it was a bit different. She didn't die to become this way, nope - she was born this way. Which makes her very unique.

Okay so Ari definitely went through some shit. Her old pack abused the crap out of her because they wanted to use her power for bad things. Eventually she got away from this pack and is now a loner. However, they've found her and they want her back.

Besides that drama, she has a couple of love interests. She's also basically a new born baby because she knows jack shit about packs, mates, and the whole world. She's tough though and has alpha blood - so she's a bad ass bitch. The chemistry between her and her mates were so cute. I definitely have a favorite right now (maybe two) but I definitely want to dive into the next book before I mention it.

This book also delivered some good twists and turns. I had no idea the bad guy would be someone that close to her. Then what happened after that whole thing - damnnnnn! Again, she's a bad ass. THE one thing I hated was the damn cliffhanger. I hate those things and that is why I need to dive into the next book!
