This book is one of my favorites. I love Tristan and Morana and their story. If you love a good old enemy to lovers full of feelings, a good plot, an amazing Mc and the cutest nerd ever, this book is for you!

First I wanna say that the book came with dirty marks on the inside. The marks was not just on one page but on pages through out the whole book. It also came without plastic cover so there's no way this was completely new, even tho I brought it as new with Prime. Anyway to my thoughts about the book. Okey, let me just say I don't get the hype and the 5 star reviews so many has giving this book. I don't understand how so many read this and said her writing was beautiful... I'm so, so sorry to burst everyone's bubble but this was not beautifully written. I can find other books that are more beautifully written, compared to this. I did find some parts was nicely written and I did enjoy the whole maffia story and the twist at the end but that was kind of it. I really tried to enjoy it as everyone else in the reviews did but as a whole there was just a bit too much I didn't like about it. The frist and main thing I didn't like and also the most annoying one about this book was the constent repeating of words and sentences. It made me so irritated to the point were I almost give up and wanted throw the book way. There are other ways to describe a situation without having to use the word "moment", contently on every single page. I wish I had counted how many times she used that word. At one point that word was on a page repeated 4 times and then again on the next and then before that page, like 3 times. That ruined the whole reading experience for me. I can't stand it when a author have no other words to use in their vocabulary and keep repeating themselves. It was not just that word but also sentences and descriptions being used over and over again, sometimes just in different ways. For an example everytime when Morana looked at or locked eye with Tristan, she never stopped pointing out his magnificent blue eyes or his hard muscles, which was all the time 🙄 Stop repeating yourself! It was extremely annoying to me to read this constant repeating. It's insane to me how this was published like this, and how the editing was this bad it seemed like none was done at all. I did however, like I said enjoy the story, it was interesting and she did make me wanna continue reading, despite her lack of trying to use other words then "moment". And I do wanna know what's gonna happen next but at the same time I don't wanna spent money on the rest of the book series. I don't wanna own that many books if I ain't gonna read them again, which I don't think I will. How she even manage to get that many books published is beyond me. I guess people haven't read really freaking good books if this was a 5 star.

The Predator is the first instalment in the Dark Verse series by author RuNyx. In the dark underbelly of the mob, Tristan Caine has been an anomaly. As the only non-blooded member in the high circle of the Tenebrae Outfit, he is an enigma to all - his skills unparalleled, his morality questionable, and his motives unknown. He is lethal and he knows it. As does Morana Vitalio, the genius extraordinaire daughter of the rival family. What Caine does with weapons, Morana does with computers. When a twenty-year old mystery resurfaces, Morana infiltrates Caine's house with the intent on killing him and unaware of a tie that binds them together. Hate, heat, and history clash together with unexpected sparks. But something bigger, something worse is happening in their world. And despite their animosity, only they can fight it down. Wheeeeeew this book. Wow. I'm fairly new to the Dark Romance genre as a whole, however the Dark Verse series is one that I've seen recommended and hyped for some time now. It honestly has not disappointed. Author RuNyx has weaved an intricate web of bloody history, deadly characters and forbidden romances. I was intrigued from the very first page, and gripping my seat by the very end. Addictive doesn't even begin to cover how incredible this story is... and this is only book one. The Predator flawlessly establishes the beginning to a mystery that will span across a total of six books for the series, and yet independently stands out thanks to its main characters. Morana Vitalio is a queen and I will not hear any different. Constantly cast aside and ostracised by her father, Morana doesn't have anybody to consider a friend or a confidant. When Morana's ex-boyfriend's steals a dangerous set of codes with the intention of selling them, Morana has to do whatever it takes to get them back and avoid them landing in the wrong hands. This endeavour takes Morana on a dangerous and thrilling journey filled with difficult truths and complicated feelings for a certain dangerous man. Tristan Caine is such an interesting and mysterious character from the beginning. Known as the deadly 'Predator', Tristan harbours a hidden loathing from an otherwise unbeknownst Morana that soon comes to light as the story progress. Tristan and Morana's unwilling professional relationship is all bark and bite... and yet you cannot help but swoon at their apparent chemistry and tension. There's so much unknowns regarding their volatile relationship which just makes it all the more interesting and engaging. I loved that Morana wasn't afraid to dish back on everything that Tristan had to give... just as I love all of Tristan's mysterious quirks that you come to learn have meaning. I've seriously not been hot for a couple like this is so long... and I cannot get enough. Wow. The Predator is one of the best books that I have read, and I am absolutely feral for the continuation of Tristan and Morana's duet in The Reaper. The Dark Verse series is a story that spans across six interconnected books that have to be read in order to understand the continued plot despite the change of focus on different couples.

The Predator by RuNyx 🔥 Oh. My. God. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 🌶🌶 How can I even begin to describe how much I love The Predator and the entire Dark Verse series? One of my all time favourite mafia romance series ❤️ (and I’ve read a lot) ✔️ dark mafia romance ✔️ enemies to lovers ✔️ strong badass fmc ✔️ possessive alpha male ✔️ ‘hurt her and I’ll unalive you’ vibes ✔️ rival mafia families ✔️ forced proximity ✔️ 3rd person POV ✨ I love RuNyx’s writing style so so much. Beautiful. Stunning. Captivating. So real. What I love is how vividly crafted all her characters are, and how I immediately was engrossed in the story and invested in the characters. I appreciate and admire that RuNyx’s books discuss mental health in a way that works to break the stigma and normalise it - something I feel passionate about. Morana is a strong woman, and that’s the type of representation I love in books. She’s intelligent. Assertive. Passionate. Resilient. Morana is someone I fiercely admire. The Predator is part of a series, and it must be read as such - there is an overarching narrative that is weaved through all of the books. I loved getting to know Morana and Tristan in The Predator, and their story continues in book 2, The Reaper. Tristan Caine, otherwise known as the Predator, is ranked as one of the highest in the mafia, despite not being related. The Predator is feared by all… Except by Morana, whose first time meeting Tristan is when she tries to kill him… unsuccessfully. Morana is on the hunt for whoever stole her advanced computer codes which could bring down the entire mafia empires. The paper trail leads to Tristan. When they’re forced together to track the real thief, the burdens of Tristan’s past come back to haunt them . Morana’s father, the rival mafia boss, is out for blood…
