--------------
Seventeen year-old Britta Flannery is at ease only in the woods with her dagger and bow. She spends her days tracking criminals alongside her father, the legendary bounty hunter for the King of Malam—that is, until her father is murdered. Now outcast and alone and having no rights to her father’s land or inheritance, she seeks refuge where she feels most safe: the Ever Woods. When Britta is caught poaching by the royal guard, instead of facing the noose she is offered a deal: her freedom in exchange for her father’s killer.

However, it’s not so simple.

The alleged killer is none other than Cohen McKay, her father’s former apprentice. The only friend she’s ever known. The boy she once loved who broke her heart. She must go on a dangerous quest in a world of warring kingdoms, mad kings, and dark magic to find the real killer. But Britta wields more power than she knows. And soon she will learn what has always made her different will make her a daunting and dangerous force.

WOW! This book is sooo romantic! Holy crackers! I LOVE it when my characters suffer, and BOY does Britta go through it! Not since the Scarlet series by A.C. Gaughen has my heroine suffered sooo intensely (actually, I have to now add Aelin Galanthius to the list after Empire of Storms!). And this book is so damn romantic in a star-crossed-first-and-true-love sort of way. Cohen loooooves her, and Britta LOVES him, but they just can't admit it! And so sexual tension to the max. And that ending! What the holy hell? SUCH A LONG WAIT TO FIND OUT MORE, WAS A MISTAKE READING THIS SO EARLY. COULD NOT STOP MYSELF. IT WAS AWESOME. 

The world they live in is intense and dangerous, Britta is so capable and daring, Cohen is risking everything for her- I'm swooning just remembering this story. So if you are looking for a high stakes adventure fantasy with a kick ass heroine, a daring hero, danger at every turn, and magic Ever the Hunted is an absolute MUST READ.
