About this book

Caleb is the future alpha of the Bloodhound pack, burdened by the weight of his father’s legacy and a desperate need to restore order to his grieving pack. His path to leadership is clear: he needs a Luna. However, fate delivers a brutal irony when his fated mate turns out to be the very rogue wolf responsible for his father’s murder. Bound by the primal pull of the mate bond, Caleb must decide if he can truly claim the woman who destroyed his family’s peace.

For Jay, life has been a relentless fight for survival. Haunted by guilt and the demons of her past, she never expected to find herself at the mercy of the man she wronged. Captured and awaiting her fate, she is caught in a dangerous dance of retribution and desire. As the pack dynamics shift around them, Jay is forced to confront whether she deserves redemption or if the punishment she expects is the only path left for her.

This dark paranormal romance delivers an intense enemies-to-lovers experience that pushes the boundaries of the fated-mates trope. With a gritty atmosphere, high-stakes pack politics, and a found-family dynamic that anchors the chaos, this installment is a must-read for fans of the series. Prepare for an emotional, pulse-pounding journey where the lines between hatred and obsession blur into something volatile and unforgettable.

The best fated mates book I have read EVER

May 7, 2026

Prey for Me by CJ Sweet is, without question, my favorite fated mates read EVER. This is enemies to lovers at its absolute finest. Not the soft, instant-love version of fated mates where everyone just accepts the bond and moves on. No. These characters have every reason to hate each other at the beginning, and that is exactly what makes this book so addictive. The MMC is dark, grieving, depraved, and angry in a way that makes complete sense once you understand him. The FMC has done everything...

From “Meh” to “Yes Daddy” Real Fast

Loved this book. Not gonna lie, Come For Me still owns a piece of my soul… but THIS BOOK?! HOLY HE🏒🏒!!. 🥵🔥 Caleb in the first two books was honestly just there for me. Kinda annoying, kinda whatever. BUT THIS CALEB?! This Caleb had me kicking my feet, snapping my fingers, screaming “YES MASTER.” The man went from boy to dominant, possessive MAN real quick and I was absolutely feral for it. And the sadistic side of him?! Oooooo yes please. I was over here volunteering as tribute. “Inflict...

A great follow up to books 1&2!

May 7, 2026

This story is the other side of the bridge of CJ Sweet’s The Hunt Series. With the first two (Come For Me 1&2) being must-listens. This third book is not a standalone. Prey For Me felt like returning to a familiar world while being simultaneously thrust into a new one. Familiar characters, who are prominent throughout the first two stories, reprise their roles in the hierarchy. At the heart of it all is a grieving son and a lone rogue whose traumatic past has molded her into a vessel of anger...

You need this audiobook!

Prey for Me had me in a CHOKEHOLD! 😩🔥 This is book 3 in The Hunt series and I’m going to be honest, I haven’t read books 1 & 2. BUT @cjsweet.author did such an incredible job covering enough backstory that I never felt lost or like I was missing anything. I love when an author can do that without making it feel like an info dump. That said, I know books 1 & 2 would give even more depth so they’re going straight to my TBR! This story follows Jay, a rogue wolf shifter whose rogue “pack”...

🎧 Immersive Reader Review = Audiobook + eBook 🎧

May 7, 2026

I enjoyed reading the story of Jay and Caleb but the audiobook definitely brought it to the next level with the amazing multi cast duet narration. Jay was my favorite character with how strong she was and how much she was able to survive and keep going while still remaining such a light to people and being kind. She was definitely a survivor and a kick@ss FMC who could go on with her life no matter the obstacles. I like the layers that she had in this book. She definitely struggled with her...
