Loved this book just as much as the first one, moments of malevolence. Kyson and Kalilah are simply adorable. The ending was spot on where I thought they’d end up. A must read for dark romance lovers

What are these Hunter brothers made of because I can't get enough of them. They are walking red flags and I want more of them!!

Moments of Madness is Kyson's story and man did he get under my skin. He's dark, depraved and overall delicious. He's just like the rest of the Hunter brothers but different in his own way. He wants out of the business; it just isn't for him anymore. And when a brunette beauty stumbles into his life he loses all focus. Kelilah is something else. She's not his typical type and she isn't afraid of him, even when she sees him in action. But unfortunately, where she saw, she is now forced to live with him where things get heated in more ways than one. They start off like fire and ice but beautifully blend together like a gorgeous art sculpture.

This book was everything and more. I devoured it within a day and was left feeling all sort of things. Kyson is dirty and makes you feel hot and wanted, but Kelilah leaves a feeling of confidence. She went through something no woman should ever have to go through, and she came out on top. She may be dealing with that trauma and Kyson may help at times, but she proves she doesn't need a man to be strong. It's nice to lean on them for support but it's not necessary.

Thank you, T.L. Smith for an arc of this hot and spicy novel! Moments of Madness was just that madness in the best way. I loved Zuko's story in Moments of Malevolence and now Kyson's. If this is how the first 2 brothers are I can't wait to see how Kenzo is. He is the one I think will be the most depraved and dark, but also the most intriguing.

Oh my god, I love, this book series. I am an experienced dark romance reader so this is pretty chill for me but I still loved it. My favourite sweet part was when she got hurt and he carried her to bed set her down and gave her an ice pack. But when he handed her painkillers she said she couldn't take them. He stopped off seemingly annoyed but returned with the meds crushed up and mixed into it. Now my favourite spicy part was the last one. She wanted dirty public sex. He obliged and took her to the theme park. And fucked her surrounded by people during the firework show. They were almost caught being chased by security. I loved it. Now I listened to the audiobook, which is a duo POV by the way. I really liked the male voice the female voice wasn’t my favourite but it was tolerable. Overall I love these brothers, with their I don’t take shit from anyone... but my wife, and it’s my favourite thing. Their dark and broody but have such a sweet spot for their women. I especially noticed this with Kyson because he was such a dick to her before he got to know her. And now? He worships the ground she walks on. He would do anything, kill anyone, give up anything for Kaliah. The Hunter brothers and the best and I’m now listening to Moment of Mayhem. So excited.

Did I read book two just as fast if not faster than book one? Yessss. Am I obsessed with these brothers? Also yes. This book was amazing. It even had a trope I USUALLY HATE, but it was done in a way that I was totally here for it. Excellent read. Highly recommend. Kyson is chef's kiss.

Moments of Madness is book #2 in The Hunters Series. You can read this as a standalone. But a lot happened in book 1 that I wouldn’t want to miss. The only thing is this is a dark romance and has a lot of possible triggers. This time it is Kyson and Kalilah’s story.

I loved reading Moments of Madness! Kyson is a contract killer. Kalilah has run away from a bad marriage. She is just trying to survive while hiding. They meet at a wedding for Kyson’s ex. She had snuck into the wedding to eat some of the food that they have.

I loved Kalilah’s feistiness, she’s a scrapper. This story was so good! I finished reading this book in a morning. I loved Kyson’s story. These books just keep getting better!

Moments of Mayhem is next and will be Kyson’s twin Kenzo’s turn for his story. Here’s hoping it won’t be too long of a wait!
