The Huntsman’s never failed a contract before, but I know everything there is to know about him. It’s finally time for me to take my revenge and finish the war my aunt started.

Critic reviews

<p>Praise for Naima Simone:<br><br>“A powerful, distinct narrative voice. Von and Aaliyah, in Simone’s hands, have a combustive and irresistible chemistry.” —<i>New York Times</i> on <i>Church Girl</i><br><br>“This touching, funny, sexy novel from Simone is a joy to read and is sure to be<br>popular…” —<i>Library Journal</i> (starred review) on <i>Played</i><br><br>“Readers will be eager for more.” —<i>Publishers Weekly </i>on <i>Heated</i><br><br>“Naima Simone stuns with this heartwarming romance about a woman firefighter and a<br>hockey player. Solomon and Adina's romance is just the right mixture of humor, angst<br>and heat. An exhilarating literacy experience.” —LJ Shen, <i>New York Times </i><br>bestselling author on <i>Played</i><br><br>“Every romance fan should be reading Naima Simone's books." —<i>Hypable</i> on <i>Scoring the Player's Baby</i></p>

Absolutely the best!!!

This is the most compelling and gripping story- from start to finish-that I've listened to this year! Any reviewer who rates this as anything less than a 5-star is truly just a saboteur! Excellent work Naima Simone 🤌🏼👑

Ren I love this book

I thought this was really good I especially like Esha's crazy tale. The guy the voice Malachi has a sexy voice and is the best person to play that character.

Hunting me

Great book and greatly written. Love whining about it ! The storyline, plot and characters were really great. I will have many listening to this audiobook.

Just wow! What a great story

Murderers in love shouldn't be this hot. I shouldn't get this invested and steeped in the visceral feelings of a crime queen and an assassin, but DAMN I LOVED IT. One of only a few 5 star reads for me this year so far, it's dark romance that means dark romance and done so freaking well. Naima Simone is a master

All of it

Loved it all, hope to see and hear more like this one soon in a different city
