Synopsis
A STORM IS BREWING...
Remy Boudreaux is back in his hometown, New Orleans. He's there with three of his fellow Dallas SWAT officers for a week of training with the NOLA PD. On the eve of a tropical storm, Remy and his buddies prowl the French Quarter. One tantalizing scent captures Remy's senses, forcing him to follow until he is face to face with Triana Bellamy—his beautiful high school crush.
After reconnecting, Remy and Triana are close—very. Remy struggles to keep things casual. Ever since his partner—and first love—was killed on the job, he's kept women at a distance.
But when a mysterious wolf pendant ropes them both into danger, Remy's protective instincts kick in. He may have to reveal his true self...and hope Triana accepts him.

Review
I received a copy of this book from the publisher through Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
This is not the type of story that I am typically drawn to. I don't really watch cop shows on t.v. either. I just don't really find them appealing. I honestly figured I was going to get rejected for this book, in fact, because I have an abysmal feedback percentage on Netgalley. The folks over at Sourcebooks are clearly very kind souls willing to give people a chance though (and then I go and let them down by posting this nearly a week after release.)
So anyway, this is not the type of story I'm typically drawn to, so I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed it. The paranormal elements probably contributed to that a great deal because I'm a fan of books that really get my imagination working.
Since I'm not typically drawn to books like this, this is the first book in the series that I've read, and at no point did I feel like I was really missing any pertinent information, well, expect for one small kind of major detail, but it was covered before the book ended. I imagine it would be possible to read this series in any order you may want, although that will likely expose you to some spoilers if you start with later books in the series first, but they'd be things you'd probably already expect from the previous books anyway.
The story is told in first person with a dual POV, and I liked how I got to experience both sides of the relationship personally. It made things a little frustrating for me because I got a double dose of what a dumbass Remy was being, but his perspective was particularly engaging for me to read.
I think my favorite character was probably Triana's mom though. She doesn't play a particularly big role in the story, but I have a deep fondness for voodoo priestesses. And she just had some of the best lines in the book.
Now, the copy of the book I read had several spelling and grammar errors, but it was an advanced readers copy, so most or all of those errors should have been corrected by now. As I have not seen the finished manuscript, I can't say for sure that they were. But since my copy was an advance reader copy, I'm not holding those errors against the book for the rating.
So overall I give Wolf Hunt 4 out of 5 stars. - Katie
