[Cody Smith-Candelaria · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is not a standalone, please read the first two seasons or you will be lost. Also, this is a dark series, so consider yourself warned. I loved everything about the conclusion to this story!!!! I am here for the violence that was doled out in what can only be described as perfect justice (and I want to say so much more here but I won't ruin it for you). I am here for the steamy sessions that are not just hot but serve to keep our trio together, bound to one another in love. I am here for the sweetness, the sassiness and all the spice. I am here for the friends and how we get to see more of them, laugh with them, bond with them, fall in love with them too. Basically, I am here for it all!!! Perfection!

Full circle
Once again, Xavier Neal has created a place where love can come in any way it needs to be for all involved.
The dark psycho danger is somewhat all too believable but so captivating.
Bunny, Mutt, and Kid are so beautiful together. Their love language isn't for everyone but it so for them. A spectacular story told with such depth and fullness.
You will fall for some of the supporting friendships in this story. I recommend reading from season 1. You will not be disappointed if dark, different, and graphic is your yum. Anyone in the pearl clutching club should skip it.

[Gladys · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the final piece of Bunny, Nolan and Kipp's twisty romance and trust me it did not disappoint! So be sure you hold on tight as the story picks up again. I won't say much, but I will say that your nerves will be stretched to their breaking point and your emotions and feels are going to get an Olympic level workout. A truly stunning and an absolute breath stealing, jaw-on-the-floor book and trilogy.

[Jamie Stahl · Rating 5 out of 5]

The final saga of Bunny, Kipp, and Nolan digs deep into the darkness. You wouldn't think a guy named Brad and his mom named Beverly could be the true incarnation of evil and depravity, but here we are. The villains are Brad and Beverly 😂.

Will Kipp and Nolan be able to rescue Bunny? Will they all survive the attempt? Sorry can't say more without giving it all away. Just read it, but check your triggers and your stomach first.

Hunted: Season Three by Xavier Neal delivers a gripping and intense conclusion to this dark MMF, age-gap romance trilogy. The story centers on one unbreakable woman fighting for her life, with two fiercely protective best friends willing to do whatever it takes to keep her safe. Neal’s writing is passionate and raw, weaving together elements of danger, desire, and emotional complexity that kept me fully engaged.

I appreciated the strong character dynamics and the way the trio’s relationship evolves amidst high stakes and peril. The small-town setting adds an intimate backdrop to the dark and suspenseful plot, enhancing the tension and emotional depth. The blend of romance, suspense, and age-gap dynamics is handled with care, making the story both steamy and heartfelt.

While some themes and plot points follow familiar dark romance tropes, Neal’s compelling characters and sizzling chemistry make Hunted: Season Three stand out. The pacing keeps the momentum going, though at times the intensity can feel overwhelming, which may not be for every reader.

Overall, I’m giving Hunted: Season Three four stars. It’s a powerful and passionate finale that fans of dark, MMF romance with emotional depth and suspense will thoroughly enjoy.

Keyboard on the fritz means this is the second time trying to write this review. I have been so anxious for this book release to see what happens for Bunny, Nolan, & Kipp. I’m beyond happy with this book and its ending, it truly did not disappoint. Bunny’s stalker ex has been getting closer and closer in each book he finally caught the throuple off guard and it’s an action packed drama after that. There is vengeance in all the right ways, especially when Brads mom who puts mommy dearest to shame comes into the picture. She is seriously messed up and I can understand why Brad is he way he is GROSS! The spicy scenes are HOTT but a little overwhelming with the dirty talk, I honestly skipped over some of those scenes. Even though am so happy they get their HEA, I was hoping to see if Nolan & Kipp get their boy and if they have a wedding. Is this it for the throuple or are we going to see more of them?

Deliciously dark conclusion to the Hunted trilogy. Loved it!

This book picks up from where we left off in season two...

Bunny is still being pursued by her crazy ex and now his even crazier mother joins the hunt. I loved all the twists that I didn't see coming.

Nolan and Kipp have their work cut out to keep her and themselves safe and in one piece. Loved how protective they were and how they would stop at nothing to do so.

I admired Bunny she shows her strength and her willingness to fight for her future with her guys.

There are moments of humour interspersed with the darkness... and the steamy scenes were spicy and plentiful.

This was such a fitting HEA with a secret surprise to boot!

mmf

When I first started reading this series I devoured it..

Book 3 is a different matter in itself. I wanted to love this book buuut!!!!

1. The way it's written. This is so different from her usual writing style....

ex. page 26.
Nothing
"Openem"
Still
Nothing

This is how a lot of the book is written. One word per line .. WHY??

2. Are we 5 years
p 54.
ALLLLLLL
OURRRRRSSSSSS
F$CKKKKK
SOOOOO GOOOOD


Also why are a lot of the words like this
Howcan yousithere and make jokes andthinkabout blow jobs insteadofour fu@%ing girl..
on page 168. Just to name one.



That's just a small spot on this page. A lot of the book is this way. Help me make sense of the writing in it.

It feels like a way to fluff up the pages..

That's all I can say.

Delicious Dark Dirty, a triple threat!

Bunny, Kipp and Nolan…they certainly have run the gamut to protect their family!

These three have fought for the protection of their growing family, life, and wellbeing. But it seems the past needs to be laid to rest in order for the future to flourish and be safe, especially when everything is about to be unified. Even though the past is dealt with, it seems to have brought along a straggling backup that this family, along with other family and friends, must commit to extinguishing. It seems everyone is willing to protect their own.

Heart Pounding Conclusion-Hunting Season

Wow!!! 😍😍😍the heart pounding conclusion to Hunted. Kipp, Nolan & Bethany (Bunny) took control early in season 3 & went ahead full throttle to eliminate the diabolical stalker & then his mother from hell reigned down her brand of evil revenge😨. The lovers & their awesome friends did not back down, however & they roared right back with extreme, unflinching vengeance to permanently end the nightmare🥳The double bonus episodes were the chef’s💋. This is an intense series, so I’m off to reading a softer novel 😄. Enjoy reading 🍷

ONE HECK OF A READ!

I love these Hunted seasons so very much. This author has created such an intense, sizzling, dark, and passionate story with characters that come alive on the pages! This read blew me away, I loved the moments in here. This was a terrific ending, and I definitely recommend reading the seasons in order for full enjoyment!

Devoured it in like one day i couldn’t stop reading it. It’s very addictive. Y’all don’t wanna miss out on this!

What a way to end a dark intense story I loved every bit of it. It consumes you and doesn't let go, the scenes are hot, dangerous and the emotions shine through the pages. Excellent writing.
