The story of Nick and Bay-Lee continues here in this sequel to Bait.
Hunter begins with Bay-Lee in Maine, living a normal life--sort of. It's impossible to completely banish the supernatural when your boyfriend is a ghost. Nick insists he isn't sticking around to haunt her. According to him, he wants to protect her. But that doesn't make sense. Why would he be concerned about her when it was her fault he'd died?
She's in History, taking a test, and Nick pops in with a warning. The Order (monsters living in the Spirit Realm) have put a hefty bounty on her head. Nick wants her to go home to her father in New Zealand where she will be safe, but she's determined to graduate from the school in Maine. Everything seems to be fine. Why should she run from something that 'might' happen?
Then a reaper tries to collect the bounty.
Bay-Lee will return to her father's school and begin her training anew, despite the fact Nick's brother doesn't want her there. An old enemy returns, and a familiar student threatens her relationship with Nick. It doesn't help that Nick thinks he should leave her for her own good. Surviving is her number one priority. Keeping the love of her life at her side is a close second. Together, they will battle reapers, their inner demons, and each other in this YA paranormal romance with bite.

They say love never dies and for Bay-Lee and Nick, it seems to be true. After Nick’s death, Bay-Lee left the hallowed halls of her father’s hunter school to pick up the pieces and live a normal life. By her side is Nick, yes, he is dead, yes, his is a ghost, yes they are still in love. No, Bay-Lee is not finished with the Van Helsing school, after all. Seems that Bay-Lee has a bounty on her head and the Order is out to get her!
Against her wishes, she returns to continue her training, welcomed by some, hated by others, she is still a target, but what she learns would turn anyone’s blood cold. Allies that may be enemies, enemies that may become allies, but the biggest shock in Bay-Lee’s world is Nick. What is he? Why hasn’t he moved on? Who can Bay-Lee trust? Her life seems to be one big lie after another. Once again, Bay-lee will buck the system and prove she has Van Helsing blood, but will it be worth the price she may pay?
Hunter (Order of the Spirit Realm #2) by Kasi Blake is another action-packed, non-stop ride into the world of ghosts, reapers, hunters and werewolves. Stuck in the middle is Bay-Lee, a feisty, determined young woman on a mission to live, keep her love and strive for some happiness. Will events let her? Oh, Nick, so wonderful, so caring, so dead, so hiding something from Bay-Lee.
Once again, Kasi Blake has taken fantasy and action to another level! Sweet romance, deadly enemies, and so many secrets, so many emotions, will you let Bay-Lee have a break for a while? Fabulous writing, fast-paced and so entangled in mystery, once again, I can say,” I didn’t see THAT coming!” Age appropriate YA fantasy, tons of action, ghosts, reapers and a blurred lien between good and evil.

This is Book #2 in the Order of the Spirit Realm series. If you have not read Bait, you can download a copy for free at most online retailers. Here are links for Hunter:
This author sure knows how to draw you into the story, and arouse intrigue and passion, to identify with the characters. There are no dull moments.
The talent that this author has is taken for granted. No worries, anything she writes about that she cares about, will be highly entertaining. Bet on it.
Both books, Bait and Hunter, are great books, with myself plumping for for the first book by a small margin. In this book, I felt there were many plot twists and changes of the rules laid out for paranormal powers and relationships between different categories of dastardly creatures. It is fun to be surprised, yet rules are there for a reason - we need them to maintain confidence in the author's world. This series rocks, keep reading!
I loved the character of Maxx in this sequel. True, he broke a lot of the rules as well, but his character is so good, you can't help but cheer for him. I also liked the twist at the end with Keisha. What do I mean? Well, you'll have to buy the book to find out!
Ugh! I'm so in love with this series it's crazy! Great continuation from book 1! The story flowed easily and always kept my attention making me want more! I'm crazy for the world this series is set in with the story revolving around Van Helsing's family! Bay-Lee is still a badass, but she has doubted herself way more in this book than in book 1 and it kind of saddened me. Which I can understand since she's being hit with one screwed up situation after another! I cannot wait to read book 3 and get to read more of Bay-Lee and Nick! I highly recommend this book! It is a great story with great characters who still have a lot of story left in them!
WOW!!!! As the story unfolds it's all crazy. I have to say so far this is by far my favorite of the two in this series. So much has come to light with this book. To find out some people aren't who they show themselves as is so exciting and very unpredictable. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in seeing a different version of the Van Helsing story but start with the first book Bait. I so can not wait for the next two books of this series.
I love following the story of Bay-Lee and Nick. Both "Hunter" and "Bait" kept me guessing till the end. Every time I thought I knew who the bad guy was, I'd find out I was wrong. That makes for good reading in my opinion! Can't wait to read "Warrior" next!
Great book. I do wish we saw a little more happiness in Bay Lee's life though. Hopefully in the next book we'll see a little more of a bright side for her. ;)
The second book to a series I just started and it was a good if not better then the first called Bait. I am currently reading the third in this series called Warrior.
Nick and Bay-Lee are a tumultuous trip into the world of reapers, werewolves, vampires and the hunters who take them out! Can't put it down! Headed for the third in the series!
What a fantastic exciting series. So much happening. Love everything. I have to admit I like Maxx. He seems like a good guy to me to be honest. But loved this book.
