I'm a big fan of this whole series, so when I found out I won a copy of this book, I was ecstatic! Lee and Lexi have been dancing around each other for quite some time, and to be honest, I couldn't wait to see what was up with Lee. You can clearly tell, from the other books, that this vamp has a big story, and bringing it to page was not going to be easy. Of course, Elisabeth Staab did a super amazing job with this daunting task. The book was fantastic!
Each new obstacle and secret was revealed so "intense-Lee." For the record, after reading this book, that is how I think intensely should be spelled. This book and its main character are the definition of intense. He has one of the biggest presences of any character I have ever read, and he is so complex. I loved how the Lee I have come to know in the other books evolves and changes in this book, and so much of his story is revealed. Lexi is great too! She really shines in this book, and you get to see how strong she is, but her sentimental side shines as well.
One of my favorite things about Elisabeth's writing style is, as she is telling her main story, she is building so many other stories within it, using her other characters. It is impossible to not fall in love with them and their lives as well. I'm always waiting to find out more about the main characters from the other books, but I also want more of Siddoh, Xander, Theresa, and the others. This world is built on such a strong foundation, I never want to leave it!
Kudos to Staab for giving us Lee and Lexi's ultra complicated story, and for giving the vampires one heck of a battle in this book. It was done extremely well, and I know it could not have been easy. This is definitely my favorite book in the series, so far!

My summary:

Alexia has had a crush on Lee, the vampire king's second in command, since she first met him. Lee is also attracted to Alexia, but he's hated humans for centuries. He pushes her away. Lexi makes plans to leave the vampire compound as soon as her friend, the queen, has her baby.

Meanwhile, a deadly threat from Lee's past is resurrected and there is treason in the vampire community. Humans and vampires are in danger. Lexi is in danger from all sides.

To top everything off, Lee is dying. He discovers that Lexi's blood is the cure. Will Lexi believe that he wants her for herself, or because of her blood?

My thoughts:

Both Lee and Lexi are stubborn and combative, almost to the very end. It seemed like they were constantly fighting.

There is a lot of action that keeps the book moving forward.

There is a nice subplot involving Teresa and Zander. We also see the beginning of Siddoh and Ivy's story.

The ending is emotionally satisfying.

~ 4 Hunter by Night Stars ~

Hunter by Night is the third and final installment in Elisabeth Staab’s Chronicles of Yavn series. Ms. Staab did an incredible job wrapping up her series. We get action, sexual tension, stagger reveals into the Vampire world and character wrap ups.

We meet Alexia and Lee in the [b:King of Darkness|12427544|King of Darkness (Chronicles of Yavn, #1)|Elisabeth Staab|https://d.gr-assets.com/books/1327884656s/12427544.jpg|17409851] where we learn that Alexia is Isabel’s best friend. Isabel is now Queen of the Vampires and pregnant, which makes Alexia’s place a little less significant. Throughout the series she has been feeling the pressure of being the only human in a Vampire world. This is taking its toll on her. She is lonely and tired of the sexual frustration that comes with an attraction to a male vampire that despise humans. She needs out and now.

Lee is the embodiment of an alpha Vampire. He just oozes testosterone and sexy hotness. He is in charge of the fighters that protect the king and the estate. He takes his job very seriously. Throughout the series he fights his attraction to Lexi, but something is about to change and through his life into a world wind of new in-site.

Lots of things happen in Hunter by Night. Lee and Lexi finally hook up and wow baby do they set the pages on fire. I have been waiting for their story ever since book one King of Darkness. Ms. Stabb did a stupendous job with our hero and heroine. We get more secrets reveled of the vampire world. Lots of things are wrapped up for us. We get to see Xander, Theresa and little Eamon. They were adorable to read about. We see Siddoh grow as a character and something interesting happens to him I did not see coming. Agnessa, Lee’s ex I’m still not sure how I feel about her, but in the end you see that she may have saw this relationship coming and helped in her own way.

Thank you, Elisabeth for giving us Lee and Alexia’s happy ending. I enjoyed every minute and highly recommend check out the Chronicles of Yavn series.

*I received a free ARC of Hunter by Night from Netgalley in exchange of an honest review*

I actually think this is more of a case of 'it's me - not you'... Hunter by Night is well written, but I guess I may need to read some UF without vampires in them for a little while...

This was good. More romance than action but these two really were messed up and it all came together in the end. It felt like she died up a bunch of lose endings. I just wonder where she goes from here.

4.5 Loved the banter between Lee and Lexi
Book three pulls you straight into the wonderful world of vampires who are only trying to protect their way of life from an evil hell bent on destroying them and the world. Alexia is the vampire queen's best friend and only human living in a house full of vampires. Staying in one place to long is not what Alexia has planned out for her life and she wants to leave. Lee, the head of the king's security team wants nothing more than to protect Alexia.
The banter between the two lead characters is awesome. What a great couple! She wants out and he wants to finally have happiness. What will it take for her to stay and for him to open up? Read Hunter by Night and fall in love with Lee and Alexia as they both find what it truly means to find what you need from someone you never expected to fall in love with.

Vampire Mafia. Tries to move away from supernatural heteronormativity, but struggles at times. For those who enjoy Mafia type wars the normies don't observe.

Well apparently I'd been waiting for this book although I have to confess I only had vague recollections of the series and not much of Lexie.

Lexie is the only human living in the vampire compound after her best friend married the vampire King. She has the hots for Lee, the King's head of defence but he is anti-human.

Lexi finds all the vampires a bit overwhelming, as is the live at night sleep during the day regime. Unfortunately for her, but fortunately for the vampires, her desire to be with humans during daytime leads her to stumble across an attempt to infiltrate the compound by Haig,
