Wolf Hunt by Paige Tyler

Fast moving, engaging wolf shifter romance. Sixth book in the SWAT series where finding The One true love makes love at first sight a pivotal event. In this case the couple knew each other in high school, so it's a sweet reunion and validates her long ago crush.

I love this author and series. It's a book and style that will have you up late because you don't want to put it down.

Remy smells something extremely tantalizing and follows it directly to Triana. That begins their renewed relationship that is more intense and deeper than he expects or even wants. He was in love in the past and it ended badly. He has no desire to go there again.
In the meantime, Triana has hired a private detective to help find who killed her father. Plus threats to her mother's voodoo shop in New Orleans have Remy and team

I like this statement about Remy. It's a good summary of his personality.
"There was a part of him that had known he was lying to himself, of course. But he did that a lot, and was completely okay with it."
Excerpt from Wolf Hunt by Paige Tyler

I received a copy of this book from NetGalley.

A friend of mine has read all of the books in this series and requested that I give it a try. I told her I don't like that kind of paranormal book and she reassured me that I would like it. Well she was right, I did enjoy it. While I don't like werewolf, vampire or really any shape shifter type book, I do like military and law enforcement type books. So I was drawn it real fast and liked how the story moved along.

Exciting and more than a little mysterious. Character driven and plot is amazing.

Another great Swat series story. This time part of the Swat team goes to New Orleans to do some training. In the recent past the shifters have been finding their One Fated Mates and although one, Remy, of the team has had and lost his mate he seems to have found another, when he runs into Triana, a former close school mate. He doesn't want a mate as he feel his last was killed because he couldn't protect her. But fate is not letting them go and their sensual attraction to each other can't be denied. Trouble finds them both when they discover information concerning Triana's murdered father, that also involves life changing information about Triana herself. If you love reading paranormal romance that includes action, danger and thrilling romance this book is for you. Wolf Hunt can be read as a stand alone, but reading any of the previous books in the series really adds that extra punch and enhances each story in the series.

Remy and Triana's story in "Wolf Hunt" was for me just as hot as all of the other books in this series. I love the way the author writes each book to stand on its own, but it has an enriched flavor when a couple of the other wolves makes their appearance into the book. New Orleans setting, old friendships and unrequited love, what more can you ask for in a great shifter romance book? Oh yeah, the Dallas SWAT pack and the next Alpha wolf in Remy finding his mate and HEA with Triana! The story blended a murder to resolve, old hurts, new beginnings and understandings with secrets revealed. Triana was in the dark about her Dad's murder, and even the fact that he was a werewolf. Knowing the bad guys and killers and what is happening, the story takes on a flair of Remy's and Triana's growing love for each other. How can Remy keep her safe and resolve his past? Can Triana except what she is seeing and knows about Remy? Paige Tyler weaves an intricate story that will keep you turning the pages. I read this one in one sitting and was not disappointed in any way. Even if you have not read any of the others in the series, I highly recommend it as this is a wonderful read for romantic suspense and wolf shifter lovers. I would like to thank NetGalley and Sourcebooks for gifting me "Wolf Hunt". My opinion is my own. This is mine 5 Stars!

Since it was almost 6 months ago, I read SWAT part 5, I really needed my dosis of hunky wolf men. So I was really happy to receive this ARC from Casablanca books. Paige picks up the story of the goodlooking wolf pack (did I mention hunky and droolworthy...) from Dallas. This time the story takes place in New Orleans, which gives the story a nice new surroundings. Everything can happen in New Orleans, naked guys, spiritual voodoo, you name it.

We meet Triana, while dancing away with her friends, when Remy catches her scent and is immediately drawn to her. Both are shocked to realize, they already know each other from high school. But that doesn't explain, why Remy is going all alpha male around Triana. Unless... she is THE ONE, as his fellow packmates suggest.

While Remy is not ready to admit this possibility, we certainly have sparks flying between Triana and Remy. But Remy has to keep his wolfish tendencies to himself, because he doesn't want to scare Triana away. Because, although Triana's mother has a shop with all kinds of voodoo, spiritual gifts and even a wolf pendant, Triana (as a scientist) is not into believing strange phenomenons, let alone strange creatures as werewolfs.

What she does believe, is that the private detective she has hired, will be able to help solve her father's murder. Because although her father had some shady businesses, there was no reason to kill him. But as facts about her father's death become more and more strange and unsettling, Triana's mother is hassled by some scary guys to give her the wolf pendant. Why is Triana's mother so determined to hide this pendant? And what was the real reason behind the death of her father? As the truth draws nearer and the scary guys close in, Remy has to do the one thing, he didn't wish to do: show his claws. Can the scientist in Triana accept Remy's existence? Or not?

Completely in Paige Tyler style, this one was yet again funny, fastpaced and with the change of scenery, refreshing. And did I mention full of yummy hot werewolfs?

So off course: four out of five stars from me! Already awaiting: Wolf Hunger (Book 7)!

Wolf Pack by Paige Tyler is the newest book in her Swat Wolf paranormal series. While visiting his home town of New Orleans Remy is drawn to Trainia a girl from his past. Remy is in town for a week for work and Trainia is visiting her mom. There is a old saying for werewolfs if you find the one she's it for you. Remy fights his feelings while working on a case. This book is a awesome addition to the series. It has everything action, adventure and romance! Highly recommend you can't put it down. Can't wait for more by this outstanding author!

While this title is not quite up to par with her other books, but Paige Tyler can write a good book in her sleep, I think.

This is heavy on the instant attraction- of course. But it felt almost a little sleazy at the beginning. That all ironed out and of course Remy and Triana grow solidly into a couple.

Triana finds out some shocking secrets both about her father and Remy (I'm sure you can guess what) but takes them in stride. The ending sets up conflict for future books in the series.

A storm is brewing for more than just Louisiana, which is the location of the latest book in the SWAT series. The hunters who have been killing Beta and Omega werewolves all over the US seem to have a reason for their madness that is going to lead to one heck of a showdown in future books.

For Wolf Hunt the story is taken out of Texas and moved to New Orleans where Remy Boudreaux is from and where he and a couple of his Dallas SWAT team go for a week of training. They are not in town long before he picks up a familiar sent a woman, Triana Bellamy, he went to school with. The two never acted on their feelings as teenagers but now the attraction is so strong neither can ignore.

Remy and team get embroiled in helping the local PD they are training with in the take down a crime boss. As this is ongoing Triana whose father was brutally killed years ago is searching for answers on who did it. What neither know is there a connection between those two things along with some surprise revelations for Triana.

I've always like stories that are in Louisiana which is so culturally diverse. Mixing the voodoo culture with a pack of werewolves makes for a great story. Each of these books seem to be leading up to something big between the Alpha pack and the Hunters. Cant wait to see what's coming next.

I liked Remy, especially when he teases his girl, " he chuckled. “Wooing? Is that what I’m doing? I thought I was taking you out for dinner.” Remy seems real upset about his girl not wearing any panties, “I guess that means you’ll just have to go out tonight without any panties,” he said with a deep chuckle. “What a shame.” Remy is not a shy man when it comes to his nakedness, “this is New Orleans, darlin’.” Remy’s mouth twitched. “I doubt anyone will even notice. Besides, it’s dark out.” I loved this book, I love the men in this series, I love their animalistic instincts amd behaviors.

Second chance at love, and renewing old friendships. Wolf Hunt tells the story of Remy Boudreaux another Alpha of the Dallas SWAT team. Remy and his fellow SWAT team are in New Orleans on assistance training assignment. One tantalizing scent latter Remy is on a spiral like none other. But after a mission went wrong and his lover was killed, Remy wanted nothing to do with love. But, Remy has no choice when he found “The One” person who would make his life complete.
Wolf Hunt was okay, right on par with all the other titles in this series. Only a slight difference there are some people who know that werewolves exist and will stop at nothing to become one. Wolf Hunt is a good action adventure/Paranormal romance. This was a very mild romance compare to her other titles in this series. So, I guess that is another slight difference. But all in all, a great sixth book.

Wolf Hunt by Paige Tyler is the sixth book in the SWAT Series. This book picks up with Remy Boudreaux being back in his hometown of New Orleans on a week of training. He quickly finds his high school crush Triana and the feelings between the two are obvious. The plot line takes a different turn with werewolves being part of a SWAT team and the characters evolve even more in this book. I like how Tyler picks the setting of The French Quarter in New Orleans because it helps to add to all the twists, turns, and surprises this story takes. I really liked reading this book and felt it was a good read

LOve the SWAT books and this is just another good one. Enjoyed the setting and the characters. Can't wait for the next one!

Rating 3.5

This is a great story and I cannot wait to go back and catch up on this series. While I feel like it's important to read a series from the beginning, this book has enough background that it didn't feel like I was missing too much for the story to make sense.

Remy and other members of the DPD SWAT team have been sent to New Orleans to help with training. On day one of arriving he scents an smell that leads him on a trail straight to a club where he finds the source of that delicious smell, Tiana. Remy and Triana went to school together and their parents were friends but they haven't seen each other since high school. So meeting on his first night visiting for a week was a nice surprise.

Triana is back in Louisiana visiting her mom for a week and helping her bestie, Kim, get over a break up. They, along with a few friends, are dancing in a club when all of a sudden her friends stop dancing and are looking over her shoulder. She turns around to find Remy, her friend and the guy she had a crush on throughout high school, right behind her. When he tells her he's there for a week they decide to dance the night away and have some fun catching up. At the same time they have both grown into adult versions of themselves and aren't shy about letting the other know they are interested in more than friends.

Things get dicey while helping out NOPD with training and the guys get stuck going after a major figure in the drug world.

Triana is trying to find the man who murdered her father a while back and she has hired a private detective to help her. She needs to know the answer to this question and wants someone punished.

While she is in New Orleans with her mom, Gemma, someone is trying to force her mom into selling a necklace her dad always wore. She refuses to do so. This leads to threats and violence against her mom.

Things are hot and crazy in New Orleans and things are only going to get hotter and crazier before this book is done.

I received this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

a good solid read

Paige Tyler's books are always page turners and this one was no exception, fast paced, action packed with plenty of steam from those wolfy alpha males it's an awesome addition to a phenomenal series. I have been waiting for Remi's story for a while, I love his smart mouth and I was definitely not disappointed.

I started out with high hopes for Paige Tyler’s SWAT series, liking the idea of a police SWAT team comprising alpha wolves and the surprising levity that came with Tyler’s storytelling. The idea has sunk in no…few books later and when it comes to setting up action and suspense, I’d be the first to say that ‘Wolf Hunt’ does well. I liked the New Orleans setting for one—the mystical bits especially seemed to gel quite well with the whole werewolf mythology and the unsolved case of Triana’s father’s murder that fell in line along with it. The bigger plot here is that there is an ongoing drug war that SWAT is facing as they fight to keep it off the streets. The cases are peripherally linked in some ways and Triana’s werewolf father adds a twist to the mix.

There are pitfalls though with this series—which is clearly something that affects just me.

I think the problem is that the idea of the werewolf’s soulmate—at least in Paige Tyler’s mythology—conveniently permits ‘destined’ couples to hook up early and without much of a period where even the possibility of being together is considered. But the insertion of paranormal elements, while exciting, reduces the impact of the romance itself because these elements seem to justify the existence of stereotypical character behaviour in this SWAT series and compromising character depth in favour of plot and action.

Tyler's SWAT men are macho and testosterone filled—more so because they’re wolves—with a sexual appetite to boot (and therefore can tomcat around because their ‘primal sides’ need it), yet fall prey to the One woman (instant love) who can and will tame them after they’ve sampled all that other women have to offer, succumbing to several of the biggest clichés in romance in one fell swoop. It’s all attributed to fate rather than deliberate thought or action on the part of the characters, which just feels like a rehash of the romance trope of the free-swinging manwhore who is downed by one woman in the end.

In the opening chapters, after a brief explanation of being each other’s high school crushes that ultimately went nowhere, Remy and Triana dance, kiss and already plan for a hookup, effectively cancelling the sexual tension or at least some kind of build-up that could have had the readers on tenterhooks. Much of it is explained as though this hookup is merely a way of seizing the opportunity when they’d missed it so long ago and the chemistry that somehow instantly fizzled between them wasn’t entirely believable, especially not after a huge period of separation and losing touch.

Yet it’s as though the years have disappeared and suddenly, physical attraction is king when Triana is no longer the awkward, gangly girl that Remy can find himself ‘safely’ attracted to. Their background is pretty much angst-free, but I had the feeling that getting Remy and Triana together quickly was something get over with (coupled with typical descriptions that no other woman felt like her despite having slept with plenty), rather than it being the main part of the story, considering the action and the werewolf revelation to come, which made their underdeveloped, straight-to-sex relationship sort of trite.

Remy’s confession that he’d loved her since high school however, ruined the romance for me as it seemed not only to cheapen his previous relationship with Jess (whom he’d first claimed was the love of his life) but also the ‘one true pairing’ with Triana which he didn’t do a thing about back then.

Again, these are clearly my own issues with the SWAT team; ‘Wolf Hunt’ has disappointed me in several ways but my fondness for this series means I can't quite let it go…just yet.
