Shadows of Salem #3
Shadow Hunted
Once a whip-smart detective and a powerful Shadow, Brooke Chandler has been stripped of both her memories and identity. She now spends her days scrubbing floors, reduced to nothing more than a servant girl. But even with no memory of her previous life or how she ended up a slave, Brooke won't remain trapped for long-not with friends and enemies alike vying to find her. Her escape attempt lands her in the deadly, beautiful land of Faerie, where nothing is as it seems-possibly including her father, the Winter King. Here, she rediscovers her past life, full of allies and foes all waiting for her return. Faced with the opportunity to flee, Brooke must decide which fate terrifies her more: staying where her enemies wants her dead, or returning to confront the ones who want her jailed for murder.

Once again I am baffled by how much an imagination can really work its way into becoming such an amazing book that provides an alternate reality for someone just looking to escape for a few hours.
Reading is my therapy, and this book took me away; took me all the way to Faerie. That's right in this book we get to visit Faerie in a sense that we find out more about Brooke and her roots. I won't say too much more about that since I don't want to spoil it, but I will tell you that if you are looking for a book that is heavy on action, heavy on a female that knows her own worth, and that she can be strong and fight for what is right no matter what anyone says, while also working through a lot more that may seem like more than one can handle than this book is for you; don't forget about this book also being a Urban Fantasy book too, so you get more than just all of that, you also get plenty of magic thrown into the situation, oh and a little romance on the side.
The world building and character building was great, and the book had some situations in it that had you saying okay just one more chapter then I will; oh look another chapter. You know what I mean. basically it was really hard to put the book down.
This book does have some violence, but not anything to extreme. No extreme sexual situations either; although there is some light romance involving kissing, and some small but not graphic description from Brooks past love life with Maddock.

Brooke Chandler has no memory of her history and her identity and is working as a servant girl scrubbing floors. Attempting to escape she ends up in the land of Faerie where nothing is as it seems as she ends up with her father - The Winter King. She hen starts to rediscover her past life and about all the allies and enemies waiting for her to return. Now she has an impossible decision to make - stay with the enemies who want her dead or return and confront the enemies who want her tried and jailed for murder.
This was a great third book in the series and filled in a whole series of gaps about Brooke and her background that we could only guess about in the previous books. It was well written (as you would expect from Jasmine Walt) and you could empathise with the emotions felt by all of the characters. I feel I understand Brooke a lot better and that can only mean the next book will be even more enjoyable.

Well, it was good, but it was left unfinished. How can this be the last book?!? That takes it from a 4 to 3 star... I do not like being left hanging.

This review is from: Shadow Hunted: an Urban Fantasy Novel (Shadows of Salem Book 3) (Kindle Edition)
Completely loved this book!! I knew I wouldn't be disappointed with this book given how awesomely good the other two books in the series were!! However, I am utterly flummoxed at the ending of this book as I thought that this was last one! Well, I am certainly hoping that there is another one & will definitely wait patiently for it to come out! I think it will be very interesting! As far as Shadow Hunted goes......it had a steady plot/story & I didn't want to put it down because I wanted to know what was going to happen next!! Love all the interesting & colorful characters and settings! But best of all is the volatile chemistry between Brooke & Maddock!!! A read definitely worth 5 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟's!!!

Uncaged Book Reviews:
A lot of danger, a lot of great action, and Brooke will need her friends and foes(?) – a.k.a. Maddock, to prove her innocence to the Salem PD. The writing is spot on as always and if you are an urban fantasy lover, this is a great series, but start at the beginning – they don’t do well as standalones. Maddock and Brooke are an excellent team, and even though romance brews just below the surface for these two, it is kept on a back burner…for now. Reviewed by Cyrene

Excellent book
Just like the first 2 books this one leaves you wishing for the next book now. Excellent characters, fabulous story, it transports you to a different world. Fast paced yet the storylines are always wonderful detailed without slowing down.

I have really enjoyed reading the Shadows of Salem series. I love the characters and the variety of things they get up to. This series is a great introduction to the Seelie/Underlie rivalry. I can't imagine what will happen next.

In love
Over 4 days I have to wad every book (that's on Kindle) this author has written! You should read them all as well.
There's a saying that's goes something like " with great power comes great responsibility ". The main character is doing that, well before she learns of her parentage. Once she's does learn where she comes from she still doesn't lay back and let things go, she fights.

I really, really enjoyed this series. It got bet ter with each succeeding book and I look forward o he next adventure of the heroine and her friends and enemies. Highly recommended if you enjoy a rather snarky heroine who keeps getting in her own way--though she learns better as time goes on, and a well plotted, not overly violent story with enough suspense to keep you reading.

Brooke gets sent to Faerie and finds out more about her past with a couple of unexpected twists. Can't wait until the next book. I so want to know what happens between Brooke and Maddox. This was a great series

I am such a fan of Ms. Hamilton and Ms. Walt and I always pre-order their books. As this is the third in the series, of which I am highly invested in, I pre-ordered it. I’m so glad I did! I found the writing, like always, to be excellent, the pace very good, and I had a hard time putting it down. I did find that instead of one continuous story, it felt more like 3 novellas/short stories put together. I think it was more for the conclusion to one story arc and the beginning of another that made it feel that way. And, I felt like Brooke forgave Maddock way too fast for what happened, and he seemed to act a tiny bit out of character. Maybe it was because of the events at the beginning of the books, but his out-of-character niceness jarred me a little. None of these things really affected my complete, overall enjoyment of this book. I still am so looking forward to more in the series, and I will with no hesitation pre-order the next one. 4 ½ stars! Highly recommend! This exact review will be posted on both Amazon and Goodreads.

Need me some more Brooke!
Please tell me there will be more Shadow books? This whole series had me craving more and this final book left me ready for book four! The romantic tension between Brooke and Maddock made me want them to hook up for real and yet they were always at arms length. The meeting with the witches was so exciting, it wore me out. And then the miraculous reentry of the police captain / warlock, well let's just say that was absolutely brilliant!! Again I can't say enough good about Jasmine's ability to suck you into an amazing story with characters you can sink your teeth into and feel like you are actually in the story, feeling their every emotion. Can't wait for more Brooke Chandler and friends! Good series indeed!

Review of Shadow Hunted.
I really loved the characters in this book, Brooke was a smart lady, with Magic Powers that even she really didn't realize she had. Finally remembering that her father was The Winter King, and getting her memories back and her being a Princess in another realm. Oscar, Maddock, and I especially loved Darun, he was my favorite.!!
It lets you know that even when you think all is lost, someone is and always has been there for you.
So sit back and enjoy this book, you will be glad that you did.!!

I had high hopes for this series book one sucked me right in, book 2 I started to loose interest.
Book 3 was better than book two as we had a change of scenery as she was held captive in a fae realm.
Then meeting her long lost father, her seemingly evil step mother who’s definitely hiding something & a wolf fae clan who she earned the respect of.
Then she had to go back to the human world and deal with being a wanted fugitive (this storyline bugged the well out of me) honestly couldn’t they just use magic to wipe their minds or find a way to convince them they were evil and she was acting in self defence?
Then she ended up the leader of a witch coven & had to save the fae community again with the help of the fae lord. There on again off again heat is also just getting on my nerves. They seem like they could be Mates completely made for each other yet they always pull away.
After 3 books I’m just kinda done with this series maybe if there was more of a love story I would want to stick with it… but the series seems all over the place

Liking the direction this is going.
The story seeming to be paced nicely now.
Brooke finding out, she had a lot in her past.
That she has lost to memory.
Early in series she did not know much of her past.
Now she begins to know more.
As well as coming into her own powers.
Who she is in Faerie.
As well as, finding out. She has some powerful allies as well.
With hints, of much of the problems from her past.
Coming from a powerful, and deadly enemy. She met once before and lost to.
Now must be on her guard against.
With the third book in the series.
We get a much deeper immersion. Into the realms and species of the supernatural.
In the kingdom of the Winter King.
As well as characters around Brooke in the human realm.
Brooke starts off a captive, with forced memory loss.
Then by and by, begins to reclaim her own.
As well as very new promising directions in her life, and abilities.
Hoping this series continues. Has a lot of promise!!

Not quite as good as the first two ones, but still pretty great and I've enjoyed it. But, what I especially loved was that Maddock has started to behave a lot better when it comes to Brooke. The author is developing their relationship really well - I just hate when the guy's still a jerk and apologizes for it with "I'm mean because I like you". But Maddock treats Brooke so, so much better since realizing he's not mad at her anymore and what more, that he likes her. So definitely a big, big plus for that.

New Beginnings
Excellent book! You have a lot of mystery/ action going on in the book. Brooke still has got the hots for Maddock. Her life goes through a lot of changes and some have interesting twists to them. Question is is this the last book? I throughly enjoyed the three books so far and I recommend them to readers if you want to read about magic, faes and witches.

Better. Liked the glimpse of Fairy and her relationship with her father. She is learning more & remembering more. But when she goes home she reverts back to the acerbic bitch cop who comes across (to me) like a know-it-all. Grrrr. She annoys me with her extreme personality changes. Strange, cuz I really enjoy strong assertive women characters.

I guess there will a 4th book with how they ending is.
this book have left me hanging with these questions:
Will Maddock find out about what Queen of Seelie Court has done to the Unseelie Kingdom?
Will they ever be a couple? and so many more questions

Good series
I liked this book and like the series. I’m glad that Brooke and Maddock are not as contentious and are working well together finally. It will be interesting to see if that lasts.

Rating dropped because I had to do an audiobook. Why is the reading with eyes option no longer available?? I loathe audiobooks. Which also explains why it took me a month to read it. The story was fine!!!
May 13, 2017
Lot of grammatical errors, after three books you'd think this would be a thing of the past.

Bring on book 4, because I can't wait to find out what happens next. Loving this book and series so much!

Nice read
A nice finish to the stories in this series and leaves the potential for another tale being spun from it.I enjoyed the story.

This series is quickly becoming one of my favorites. I love the world the authors have built, I haven't found any parts of the three books so far boring. I'm eager for the next installment.

Fantastic. The writing all came together in this third book in the series. Loved it - 5 Stars
Looking forward to new series based on the characters in this book - will be an automatic buy!
