Ariane Tucker has finally escaped GTX, the research facility that created her. While on the run, Zane Bradshaw is the only person she can trust. He knows who-and what-she is and still wants to be part of her life.
But accepting Zane's help means putting him in danger.
Dr. Jacobs, head of GTX, is not the only one hunting for Ariane. Two rival corporations have their sights set on taking down their competition. Permanently. To protect Zane and herself, Ariane needs allies. She needs the other hybrids. The hybrids who are way more alien and a lot less human. Can Ariane win them over before they turn on her? Or will she be forced to choose sides, to decide who lives and who dies?
The Hunt was a pretty good sequel to The Rules. I enjoyed it about as much as I did the first book. I believe the Hunt it brought a lot more action to the table than the Rules did and I those action packed parts were really fun to read. The pacing in this book was more fast paced since the background and explaining of things were done in book one and the action also helped speed things along. There was some back referencing done to help jog the memory and I really appreciated that because there were a couple of things that I had forgotten about. This book has definitely made me want to continue on with the next book to see where things will lead to next.

1. Never trust anyone.
2. Remember they are always searching.
3. Don’t get involved.
4. Keep your head down.
5. Don’t fall in love.
Five simple rules. Ariane Tucker has followed them since the night she escaped from the genetics lab where she was created, the result of combining human and extraterrestrial DNA. Ariane’s survival—and that of her adoptive father—depends on her ability to blend in among the full-blooded humans in a small Wisconsin town, to hide in plain sight at her high school from those who seek to recover their lost (and expensive) “project.”
But when a cruel prank at school goes awry, it puts her in the path of Zane Bradshaw, the police chief’s son and someone who sees too much. Someone who really sees her. After years of trying to be invisible, Ariane finds the attention frightening—and utterly intoxicating. Suddenly, nothing is simple anymore, especially not the rules…

The Rules was a very interesting read that I liked. It was different from a lot of books that I've been reading lately. I loved the idea of Ariane being a hybrid (half human/half alien). It was definitely an interesting combo. The writing style of the author was easy to read and follow, which I found I liked as well :) I did feel as though the book could have been better in some aspects, but overall I thought the book was pretty good! I receive a eARC from Netgalley for review. All thoughts are my honest opinion!
