The Renegade Hunter (Argeneau Vampire Series #12) [NOOK Book]

This is an intriguing Rogue Hunter romantic urban fantasy

For centuries, Nicholas Argeneau was one of the best vampire hunters tracking down those who broke the immortal law. Fifty years ago, he quit and apparently turned rogue.

However, when a vampire attacks mortal bar manager Josephine Willan, Nicholas cannot stop himself from getting involved; he rescues her and cannot resist stealing a kiss. He quickly learns what happens with good Samaritans when he is captured by agents of the Vampire Council who wipe out Jo's memory of the event and them. As Nicholas awaits trial, Jo regains the memory of their kiss. She helps him escape. However, when his Uncle Lucian Argeneau learns who she is to Nicholas, he uses her as a lure to recapture the rogue. Once again Lucien and Nicholas underestimates Jo, who feels her well being is best taken care of at Nicholas' side even as she tries to learn why the kindhearted vampire was declared a rogue.

This is an intriguing Rogue Hunter romantic urban fantasy with the only known Argeneau to go rogue starring with his life mate as the audience learns why. Adding to the fun of the family reunion is a degree of connection as her sister and his former associate Mortimer are engaged (see THE ROGUE HUNTER). The story line is fast-paced from the opening scene when he rescues her and she accuses him of the "penis-eye thing" and never looks back (pun intended). Series readers will fully enjoy the superb tale of the intrepid human and the vampire forced to come out of the cold now that he has found his life mate.

Very enjoyable

I enjoyed it, but it's the second book where they wrongfully thought Nicholas was a murderer. I got a bit tired of everyone being completely blind to the truth.

The characters were good, the plot was intricate, but one book with everyone hunting the good guy would have been enough. They should have figured out he was innocent way sooner.

Left wanting

I've read every book in this series and enjoied them all but I was disappointed at the end of this one. It leaves you hanging with the mystery unsolved. Bad Form!

Another Great Book

This is # 12 in the Argeneau series. Samantha has a party to try a get her sisters lifemates. Jo is bored with this whole party and goes for a walk... She meets her lifemate in the form of a rogue vampire! Now the chase is on, is he really rogue? He helps save her from another bad guy! The twists, the turns, the suspense and romance are on!!! Enjoy this book!

LOVED

I am hooked!

Great Book

Nicholas is an engaging hero and I absolutely adored Josephine. I only didn't give it five stars because I've read the entire series within a month, and I think perhaps I'm a bit saturated with the writing style.

A Fun read

You would think after 12 of these books that I would grow tired of them. While they do have a very similar plot point, immortal finds lifemate, etc, each book and characters are very different and somehow each book ends up being fresh and fun.

I really enjoyed this installment in the Argeneau series. Jo and Nicholas were both great characters. I really loved Jo, she was so sassy and funny and smart. She kept Nicholas on his toes, and that's hard to do with someone who is centuries old. This one had the great twist of trying to figure out why Nicholas had become and rogue, and then trying to figure what exactly happened all those years ago, and if all the suspicious blanks could make a difference.

Overall, this book was light and funny, but still managed to be full of action and mystery. I love how the characters from other books in the series always seem to play into the new books so that you can see how each of their lives are progressing, without the story feeling overdone or becoming boring. If Lynsay Sands keeps making them so fresh then I'm sure to stick with this series for a long time to come.

Favorite!

This is my favorite of the Argeneau/Rogue Hunter series. There's more mystery involved than some of them, and Nicholas and Jo are great characters. And, of course, it has all of Lynsay Sands' characteristic humor and romance. Definitely recommend it.

BEST BOOKS EVER

The Most Awesome Books EVER!!!

Love the Argeneau Family and all the fun!

I read one of the books and had to buy the series! Sands is a good writer and brings the Vampires into a new light. I can't say enough about this series. Read one and you'll be hooked!!

Ending Needed More

I was excited that Nicholas Argeneau finally was able to find his lifemate and find happiness. I'm happy that he was finally found innocent of the crime, but I would have liked to know who was behind setting him up to fall for the crime and who killed his first wife. The story lets you believe that there was some sinister plot going on and that's why he was set up for a crime he didn't commit, but the end of the story just says he's innocent without any further explanation. I mean the poor man was on the run for fifty years and his family had turned their backs on him, so you would think he would want to know who put the blame on him and set him up. It's a good thing his lifemate believed in him, or he would still be on the run.

enspiering

lerning the truth of ones past with fresh eyes help.

Good Read

This was another very good read from Lynsay Sands! I have enjoyed every book in this series & this one was no different! Very good romance with a little action, always gets me hooked!

Good Read

I recently discovered this series and have read all the books and loved all of them, however this one is a good read, but the ending is "like what". Nevertheless it's a good book and can't wait for the next one.

The Renegade Hunter - A Rogue Hunter Novel

Nicholas Angeneau was once a successful hunter who went after rogue vampires, who broke the immortal law. Except no one has mentioned his name in the last fifty years, not since he turned into a rogue himself. But once a hunter, always a hunter. When Nicholas sees a bloodthirsty sucker terrifying a woman, it's second nature for him to come to her rescue. He had no idea he would also want to kiss her senseless..
One minute Josephine Willan is taking in a breath of fresh air, and the next sharp fangs are heading straight for her neck! Luckily, a gorgeous stranger saves her life...and gets locked up for his troubles. Can a man who kisses so lovingly and passionately really have committed the crime he's accused of? Jo isn't so sure ... and she's determined to prove that this renegade hunter is worth fighting for.

I love this series, but the end of this book bothered me. Yes Nicholas is exonerated, but how?? If it wasn't for the ending I would have loved this book.

awesome!

then ending wasnt really good.
its like they went through all the trouble in the plot n then bloop

No Ka Oi ("The best" in Hawaiian)!

Just get a copy now and enjoy! It's a must read. Thoroughly enjoyed it & couldn't put it down. Nothing I say can do it justice. I can't wait for her next book. Prefer her books over Twilight. Aloha!

The Renegade Hunter (Argeneau Vampire Series #12) by Lynsay Sands

I have read all the books in this series and love the way this author writes. Her characters are funny, with emotions and passions and interesting senerios that keep you afraid to put the book down. The end was a cliff hanger because it left you wondering how they learned certain info (Can't spoil it for you). A good read for romance buffs who love a little Bit in their stories..... If you like this book you must read the first one in the series, "A Quick Bite" to introduce you to the family.

This book was awesome!!!!

I loved this book. I have read the previous 11 books in this series and have enjoyed them all. I think this one is my favorite. It's funny and romantic. I love the characters the relationship between Jo and Nicholas. As soon as I was done with the book I read it again, it definitely left me wanting more. If you are in to vampire romances I highly recommend this series, you won't be disappointed.

The Renegade Hunter (Argeneau Vampire Series #12)

Loved it as much as the previous books :-) You have to read it yourself as I will not spoil any of it for you.
If you have not read all the other 11 book, I would highly recommend them all.
