~ 4.5 Hunted by a Jaguar Stars ~
ARC Hunted by a Jaguar
Hunted by a Jaguar is book four in the Eternal Mates series by Felicity Heaton. Ok, so what can I say that has not been said. Hunted by a Jaguar is another Amazing Spectacular Winner in the Eternal Mates series. This one can be read as a standalone, but If you want to know who some of the other characters are that are talked about then best to read in order. We get trust issues, suspense, action, a knowing that they are mates, but one or both fight it, and so much more.
Kyter, is a Jaguar shifter, owner of a nightclub, and has a very big secret. He goes on a quest of revenge, but finds something much more precious. He has to fight his instincts or lose what he never thought he would have. I loved him. What a hottie. His inner battles where well done and intriguing.
Iolabthe, is an elf. She needs to find an artifact or face death. She never expected to run into her Fated Mate. She is fantastic. I love that she is an archaeologist of sorts and very independent, but she also has a soft side. We also get a very big surprise on a family relation of hers, which I just loved.
FHeaton does an amazing job bringing us everything we love in a PNR. The story pulls you in from the start. We get so much depth with the plot, world, and characters. The writing flows and the characters are always well developed. The sex is fantastic and hot. The chemistry between Kyter and Iolabthe is breathtaking. I love it when a book brings back old characters and connects them to the present. I was also very surprised to see someone from Vampirectice make an appearances. Eee (loved that scene). Those who have read VET will love this surprise. One scene I loved was/is the water scene with our leads. Yes ladies, you will know what I’m talking about when you read it. OMG HAWT!
Outstanding! Extraordinary! Superb! This is a must read for any PNR fans. FHeaton is an unbelievable storyteller and her works are worth trying out.

“Either you finish now, or you damn well let me in.”
This scene. This scene is when I truly fell in love with Kyter. He just oozed alpha, but he exuded genuine passion and care for Iolanthe. I swooned and sighed and melted into a damn puddle all over the floor. Words can’t. I can’t even. Just…Hokay..So Kyter has had his entire world destroyed with the news he received from his pride. This tragedy is the last straw, and sets him on a path for vengeance and justice that he is determined to see to the end. Plans are all well and good, but the wrenches that get thrown in have a way of throwing them off course. That wrench comes in the form of treasure hunter Iolanthe, a stunning woman that Kyter can’t seem to leave alone.
Kyter, Kyter, Kyter. Why do I love you so? Kyter is the kind of man any woman would be lucky to have, and he really doubled my love for shifters. Despite the hell he lived in as a child, he became a very loyal and dedicated man. He strived to accomplish everything on his own and prove that he could do whatever he set his mind to. He worked incredibly hard, and treasured his accomplishments. But even though he had done so much with his life, it was clear he still wasn’t happy. He was missing something in his life. And when Iolanthe stepped into the picture, everything changed for him. He pursued her with a dedication that clearly came from his will to succeed. He was devastatingly passionate and caring, always being the protector and cataclysmic lover. He understood there was a time to follow his instincts as a jaguar, and a time to be the man he was inside. This mix made him incredibly strong and overwhelmingly irresistible. The way he treated Iolanthe had me swooning left and right, wishing that I could take her place. He was a prime example of how wondrous love with a shifter can be.
I wasn’t sure how I felt about Iolanthe in the beginning. She didn’t really seem like I character that I could see myself getting behind for the long haul. By the end of the book, I liked her, but she didn’t particularly stand out to me in any special way. She was very stubborn and set in her ways, afraid that change would force her to give up what she loves. She always put people at a distance, unless absolutely necessary to let them closer. She was incredibly dedicated to what she loves, and passionate about it too. On the other side of the coin, however, she was just as passionate when it came to Kyter. For some reason, she could not shake him or the need to see him again. She reveled in fact that he was unlike any other man she had ever met. It through her for a loop at first, but it quickly developed into something much more meaningful for both of them. Despite her rough and semi-cold demeanor, deep down she truly cared about those around her. She did what she could to help Kyter, and along the way discovered something about herself she never would have otherwise. She was a strong woman with a beautiful heart, and in the end, she was the perfect match for a man such as Kyter.
This entire series has been a homerun for me. There has not been a single book so far that I have not absolutely loved. This series is a favorite from book 1 to now, and each book just keeps getting better. Each story is beautiful. The characters really grab me and burrow into my soul. I never know what I’m going to get with each new book, but I know I’ll enjoy the ride. Thank you, Felicity, for another smash hit for me. Excited for book 5!

Oh god did I love this book. So far, nothing will overtake my love for book two because virgin males are my jam, but I really loved the last one and I loved this one just as much.
There is SO much passion in these stories. Sure sometimes the fight scenes feel written a little odd, but honestly it doesn't bother me. I love he action, I love the passion, and I love how each character has felt individual. Sometimes when I read series, PNR or not, and there's Alpha males in a story, they all tend to blend together. I think that the fact each character so far has been so different in terms of species it's really shown how different their actions, beliefs and personalities are. Sure they're all pretty overly dominant until they realise it will lose them their mate, but simple things really show how different they all are. In this he rubbed up on everything to mark his scent, he constantly petted her etc. others have done their own things (dreams etc) and it's made each so individual that I'm 100% interested in every future book in this series just so see what they're all like!
Also, by 50ish% I guessed who her brother was and from that point on I was jumping around excited to see what would happen and it did not disappoint. I giggled the whole meeting. I only wish there was some dirty dancing in Underworld or something, but I also get why she wouldn't actually like it there being so loud.

Hunted by a Jaguar really grabbed me at the beginning, lost me for a while in the early middle, and the gripped me from about 60% forwards. It starts off really pissing you off and getting your blood boiling (in that really great way), but then the story went in a direction that felt kinda blah for a bit. I got worried that I wasn't going to love this one after all. But once things really got going, we were back to the Felicity Heaton I've grown to love with this series!
I think one of the things that made Hunted by a Jaguar a little harder for me to get into was the very shaky connection to the previous books and characters that I was so eager to see more of. Although there are connections, it takes a long time for them to produce any real significance in the actual story and even then, we aren't seeing 99% of the people I was looking forward to seeing. And that's been one of the treats of this series for me - all the ways everyone weaves together.
But that's pretty much my only complaint. I LOVED Kyter - why don't we have more stories about jaguar shifters? He's that fabulous mix of tough and tormented. He's had it rough and it's taught him a lot about treating people with respect. The love he has for his mother kinda melts your heart too.
And then there's Iolanthe - who doesn't love a kick ass woman? She's ancient (like all the elves we've met so far) and she's a treasure hunter. Kinda your hot, Elvin Indiana Jones. I liked her attitude and determination. And the sexual friction between her and Kyter didn't hurt either ;)
Felicity sure knows how to create great sexual tension and she always delivers the goods spectacularly - and in that regard she definitely didn't let me down in Hunted By a Jaguar either. There's a fun little twist (which I predicted for the most part, but in a satisfying kind of way, not an obvious way) and a good amount of action to keep things moving along and exciting.
I really enjoyed unted By A Jaguar and just hope we'll be seeing some more of the earlier couples as the series progresses.

Felicity always knows how to make a story flow from the minute a reader starts reading the first page to the very last page. She puts in the right amount of action and romance to make it hard to put down. (At least that is what Hunted by a Jaguar did for me)
I give this book 4.5 moons and highly recommend this book to PNR lovers out there. I do recommend reading in order for this series. You don’t want to miss out on the other previous stories. Kyter is mentioned before…so you know ahead of time secondary characters do get their own book later on.
I look forward to sitting down and reading the next book in the series, after my crazy work week is over with. I need my Eternal Mates fix. =)

Nice follow
This was a good follow read after book three. Not as dark and enthralling as the last, but still very good.

Hunted by a Jaguar is book four in the Eternal Mates series. This is another fast-paced, steamy story as I've come to expect from Felicity Heaton. The world that Heaton has built just continues to get stronger. We have another kickass heroine paired together with alpha male hero. They are perfect for each other, but it takes both of them a while to figure that out.
Kyter is a half jaguar, but he doesn't live with his pride. He left them a long time ago. He was never accepted as part of the pride and his mother was shunned because of his birth, or more importantly, who his father was. He now lives in London and owns and runs 'Underworld', a bar that caters to supernaturals that we saw in Kissed by a Dark Prince. He is a great character that you can't help but root for with the troubled past that he has had and how he has overcome it to make a life that he is happy with.
Iolanthe is a mercenary/treasure hunter and an elf. She is on the hunt for an artifact for an extremely dangerous man. If she doesn't bring him the artifact soon, she is going to lose her head. Kyter just happens to be looking for the same artifact. Kyter needs this artifact to summon a demon for revenge for his old village and he death of his mother.
Kyter and Iolanthe are an interesting couple. Iolanthe is a very free spirit and really values her independence. Jaguar society have very submissive women, which is not Iolanthe. This is one of the reason that she fights against the attraction to Kyter from the beginning. Kyter has to learn to fight his nature if he is going to woo this woman.
This is a book that you could read without having read the previous books in the series, but as I'm a big fan of all the books, I would highly recommend just starting at the beginning and meet all the great characters that Heaton has given us. I was really excited to have a shifter added to this world. If you are a fan of paranormal romance or urban fantasy, this is a series you should really try. Felicity Heaton has intriguing characters, that are not perfect, but are very real. The world and plot are alway amazing. Can't wait to get into Craved by an Alpha.

Leaving his pride was easy, leaving his mother was the hardest thing Kyter has ever done. That's what he thought until he had to return to the rain forest and his pride to bury his mother. Kyter lived most of his life with the pride of jaguars who treated him like an outside from day one just because he was different from them. He is half jaguar and half demon. Growing up he was told by the pride elders he would never find a mate because no one would ever want him due to being a mixed breed. Believing them he left to make a life for himself in the city. Once he laid his mother to rest he set out on seeking revenge for the demon he blamed for her death.
Iolanthe is a treasure hunter for hire and she is looking for something that will help her get away from some very dangerous men who hired her. When Kyter and Iolanthe meet she wants nothing to do with him, her goal is set on finding the artifact, not falling in love.
Agreeing to work together for a gain that they both need, Kyter and Iolanthe grow closer every day which is shocking to Kyter who always believed that he would never be fated with a true mate.
