This series started out great and has really fallen off for me. I think there are more planned, but I don't think I'll continue reading - the first two books were quite enjoyable, but I don't like where the story has gone.

That you NetGalley and Bella for the Earc in exchange for my honest opinion!
This book was so GOOD! Slow burn and one bed trope, my fave! I did read the whole series but this one was told for two other characters point of views and you could almost read it by itself. I enjoyed this one more than the first two, ir was more of a mystery vibe I guess? Definitely had me jaw dropping and gasping. Roux and Ludovic are sent in a mission to capture the escaped vampires as well as some mystery ones. Along the way a bigger problem unravels that they need to get to the bottom of. The vampire world is still very uncertain and there is a lot let to figure out. I’m hoping there will be another one!

Hunted by Bella Higgin is a thrilling conclusion to the Belle Morte series, filled with action, romance, and unexpected twists. The book picks up where the previous one left off, with Renie, Edmond, and their allies celebrating their victory against the evil vampire, Belle Morte. However, their celebration is short-lived as they soon realize that some of their enemies have escaped and are wreaking havoc in the city.
One of the standout characters in this book is Ludovic de Vauban, a reclusive vampire who has been living in Belle Morte for years. He is forced to confront his fears and step out of his comfort zone when he teams up with the human donor, Roux Hayes. Roux is a quick thinker and street smart, and her skills prove to be invaluable as they navigate the dangerous world outside Belle Morte.
The chemistry between Ludovic and Roux is electric, and their love story is a beautiful addition to the fast-paced plot. Their relationship develops naturally and is not rushed, making it all the more believable and heartwarming. As they fight side by side to protect their loved ones and the future of vampirekind, they also discover a love that they never thought possible.
Bella Higgin does an excellent job of balancing the action and romance in this book. The fight scenes are intense and well-written, keeping readers on the edge of their seats. At the same time, the tender moments between Ludovic and Roux add depth to the story and make the characters more relatable.
It is a satisfying and captivating conclusion that ties up all loose ends and leaves you feeling fulfilled. I think Bella Higgin created a unique and exciting world filled with memorable characters.

Thanks Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to read this book. I read Hunted without reading the other books in the series first. But I will go back and read them now I was hooked from the start. I couldn’t put it down. The story was easy to follow even though I hadn’t read the other books and I didn’t feel lost or anything. The relationship between Roux and Ludovic was sweet despite everything that was happening. And there were so many other characters that were intriguing as well. The twist kept me on my toes. Overall it was a thumbs up from me.

*****5 stars!

Roux and Ludovic had such an interesting relationship; where Ludovic saw pain and darkness, Roux saw positivity and light, I absolutely loved how they came together in this story. They balanced each other out so wonderfully, and I couldn’t help but root for them the entirety of the story! I really enjoyed getting to know Ludovic and hearing his story, it definitely pulled at your heartstrings. I also really enjoyed getting to know Roux as a character, her story was definitely relatable!
