Crystal ♥ RBtWBC
Snaring the Huntress was a fun little read that was only about 50 pages or so. The story follows a Huntress, Star, who is a Judge (a sort of law enforcement person) fighting to prove herself to the council and garner respect for her race. She’s been having these highly erotic dreams for the last week though of a faceless man bringing her to the edge but never finishing, leaving her frustrated and unable to concentrate. When she is sent on a mission to capture a rogue Jacian she plans on a quick...more

I think that if this book were a little longer and more fleshed out I would have enjoyed it. But as it stands the SPOILER (I guess)

Star: "I'm here to capture you so you don't have sex with everyone"
Roark: "Good, I was hoping they sent the hot chick! Spread your legs"
Star: "Fine, but I have to take you to space jail after the week is over"

A week later....

R: "I don't want to go to space jail!! Kill me now!"
S: "I can't because now I love you!!"
Computer on Communicator : "Its okay, he can just be un...more

A quick smutty read with little plot.

I know this is erotica and I don't always need plot to enjoy it, but the summary of this story creates an interesting world and I honestly wanted more of that world. Star is supposed to be some impressive fighter yet cannot control her spines (why spines) and gets too easily captured. So they meet, Roark acts creepy, Star gives in too easily, they have sex a few times, and suddenly a week passes. And despite the law and Star's mission, everything works out fi...more

Star is a judge in a far off galaxy in the very distant future. As a Hunter she is more than just a judge, she is more than often the executioner. Her new assignment is to catch a Jacian male. Jacians go into a heat cycle, they HAVE to have sex. To keep from harming unwilling participants they are assigned a partner. To flee from this individual is punishable by death. That is exactly what Ambassador Roark Teron has done. Although he has an attraction to a Judge Huntress that actually hopes wil...more

Star is a galatic judge and hunter of criminals. She is trying to earn her place on the Supreme Court with enough credits. She has been dreaming of a mysterious man for over a week now and isn't any closer to finding relief. Roark is an alien ambassador now turned fugitive with only one goal in mind being with Star during his heat cycle. He has watched her from afar and waited two years for this one and only chance at having her. Star's orders are dead or alive thanks to Roark's government. So w...more

Gaja boa sonha todas as noites com deliciosos preliminares com um tipo que nunca viu. Gajo com o cio foge da tipa que lhe tinha sido destinada e fica com a cabeça a prémio.
Gaja boa encontra gajo bom e tufas gemidos e alegria com bondage improvisado à mistura.
Este livro é uma péssima desculpa para umas quantas páginas de gemidos sem história alguma, mas com umas descrições bem interessantes.
O texto é de fácil leitura e vá, apesar de não ser grande coisa pelo menos é de borla, pois está disponível...more
Riona [Dizzy Izzy Book Reviews]
This is smut. Alien smut at that. It wasn't all that good - so not all that good that I can't even remember the characters names... The chick is some kind of futuristic Judge, Jury and Executioner, and she does it all in the nude. But wait - there is more... when our nudist judge gets all hot an bothered... spikes stick out from her back...

The dude... he is green and in heat. And i guess his kind go crazy if they don't bang for days while in heat. And guess what.. judgy-poo has to hunt him down,...more

I was expecting some adventure or plot even, but the novel was basically all erotica.
Not recommended for those under 18.
It was an okay read.
I didn't get what I wanted, which was an actually shoot and chase sci fi novel with the sexual tension and the awesomeness.
What I did get was a male alien from an unworldly attractive brand of species who needs to be locked up with a partner for a week when they're in heat......or else their need for sexual release could hurt someone...umm..yea. That's not a...more

This wasn't a bad story. Erotic sci-fi but it did have a plot.
The huntress is a judge tracking down a fugitive who refused to go into seclusion with his pre-assigned when he was about to go into heat. Kind of Star Trek's "Amok Time" episode with a different ending.
It seems the fugitive was hot for the judge. He knew she would be the one to come after him and is laying (pun intended) in wait for the huntress who always hunts in the nude. Guess she's all ready for him.
Michelle (In Libris Veritas)
The premise of the story sounds much better then the actual plot turned out to be. I think this is one of those stories that if given the proper length to unfold, like a near full length book, it would have been pretty decent. The main character is slightly annoying too. Also why do they fill these stupid e books with so many excerpts from other stories? I'm not going to read them, that's not why I downloaded the book.
Darcy
I think that I would have like this one better if it had been expanded. I liked the world, but wish there would have been more about why the Ambassador was on the run, what/how the Hunters worked and the Judaical board, and where things went from there. What was here was fun. I liked how the Huntress interacted with her ship.
Kristin
There was really nothing to this story. I thought it would have more back story to it but it was literally a romp in the sheets. Pretty much the synopsis tells you everything. Roarke is in his mating cycle for the week and hides away so that Star has to track him down. When she does they get all hot and heavy for the week THE END.

REVIEWER'S OPINION:
I loved it! Some of the visions created stayed in my mind long after I read it. There were a couple of good lines that took me by surprise. It’s a wonderful erotic sensual turn on.

STORY BRIEF:
Star is a judge/executioner sent to arrest Roark who is hiding on another planet. Star is a species with sharp claws and a spine coming out of her back. Roark is of the Jacian species who periodically go into heat requiring them to have sex almost nonstop for a week.

Shelves: sci-fi, own
I enjoyed reading this. It was interesting, a little too quick but that's ok, steamy, and I definitely liked the characters. The ending was great. I would definitely read more like this. This would be a good go-to for a fun quickie read. A keeper despite it's size. Enjoy

3 stars. This book started out AWSOME, like it could have been one of the sexiest scifi romances ever. Then it ended abruptly and lamely albeit with an HEA that was totally NOT believable. I'm effing pissed actually. This book had MAJOR potential and I was engrossed!!!! WTF?
Carolyn F.
33 pages. Enjoyable story. Star is sent to capture Roark who took off when he was in heat. He's not supposed to do that and will be killed either by her or when he's brought back. Star finds out that's not so easy to do. Liked Star, she's human like but with extra bits.
Jessica
Not very good. It was short, not all that impressive for erotica. I've read better, and well, I like a little plot with my sex and a little more foreplay. Unfortunately, the plot sucked. It was stupid and the end really was a cop-out.

3 stars because 3 stars = "I liked it" and I did, for what it was. The romantic/erotic part of it was sweet, but other than that, this 3 chapter story had no plot. However, I'd still read something more lengthy by Ms Day.
Crystal
I love Sylvia Day! This was different for me- outer space aliens, but the sex scenes were always good, it's Day of course!, and that's what kept me going. Give it a go and see what you think, whether you're into outer space love.
Holly
This is a short, erotic little story. I picked it up because it was free. I'm not sure if Day has written other novels set in this world, but I'd like to find out. Though short, I found the world intriguing and the premise sweet.
Johanna
Small short read, If she couldn't flesh out the short story then why should I bother fleshing out a review. Couple of hot sex scenes, and that was it. A free read off amazon, what more do you really get for free?
Cassandra
This would have gotten 5 stars if it was a full book. It was way too short... Just when you were completely into the story and wanted to know what happens next, it was abruptly over. I wanted MORE MORE MORE...

Found this freebie in Sylvia Day's website.

Very sexy but sweet sci-fi romance novella. Resolution of the plot was a little too tidy, but the sex was pretty hot, and the emotions was very tender.
Denise
Definitely not impressed. Was there a plot cause I might have missed it! It was too short to get into the characters. I didn't enjoy the whole species thing. Yes, there was sex. That was about it.
Linda
A short short story where the huntress Star is pursuing Roark with a death sentence. Will he get enough time to convince her of their compability? Fluffy smut and an interstellar pursuit.
Yvette
The sex was smexy, but I found the ending very convenient...... however, I did very much enjoy the blurb for her other book at the end! I've got to start reading some of her other stuff!
Sonja van der Merwe
Totally not something that I would usually read as I'm not into Sci-Fi crap.. but this... OMG this was super steamy hot!! Expected nothing less from Sylvia Day though... LOL!!
Rachel
I thought this was a really nice quick book. The story was one of those obvious-but-that's-why-I-read-it plots that's not for those who want mystery. It's great for a 20 min read.
Odette
Maybe more 3.5 stars than 4

Cute short story. My first alien / sci-fi erotic read and first from this author.
Not fantastic but ok to kill 15 minutes.
That's about it...
Amy or "Ames"
This is my third free shorty by Sylvia Day and I'm coming to believe I am a fan. Although not one of her best I still enjoyed this no humans involved erotica with plenty of humour.
