Hunt Me! (I Crave the Chase) by Fae Quin
5.0
As with every Fae Quin book, this one made me laugh and it made me cry, and I loved it so, so much. My heart ACHED for poor, sweet Jeffrey. I knew he was going to have a rough time in this book. That his tortured soul would struggle hard to allow anyone to care for him, to allow his brain to accept any amount of admiration or love, no matter how genuinely given. And he struggled not only with letting Mutt in, but with Blair and Richard and Colin as well. Believing that his own brothers could love him after the horrible things he'd been forced by Lydia to do was impossible for him at the beginning of this book, and one of the best parts of this story was getting to see Jeffrey change. To see him take the softness, and love and safe-belong-desired that Mutt gave him, and use it to start to dig his way out of his mental prison. To forgive himself. And what can I say about Mutt except that he is maybe one of my favorite characters I've ever read. This big doofus wolf, who loves so fiercely he blinds himself. The very definition of a himbo: sweet and innocent and wonderful and so dumb you couldn't help but giggle watching him try to woo Jeffrey. And because he is just absolute perfection, and he saw Jeffrey as pretty, perfect, mate-mate-mate, of course Jeffrey couldn't help but believe his love was real and perfect, too. I was torn to shreds when Mutt finally revealed to him that nothing he could do would be enough, and asked him to use his hunting skills to put him down. My heart just broke, even though I knew it would be okay in the end. And it was. The ending was perfect for them.
