This was a great first book in a new series from S.E. Smith. As in all her books, the author introduced us to a new world that makes you wish planetary travel was possible) and that big hunky romantic alpha warriors really exist.Although I don't love books depicting the destruction of earth and it's self inflicted  Armageddon  it was necessary to the storyline.I read this book in one sitting and was immediately drawn into the characters and storyline. It was refreshing to see the hero and heroine be able to come together rather early in the story. This enables us to grow with them as their bond  strengthens  and enables them to fight the battles to come. It is too often we read about mated couples taking up much of the book with denying the feelings for each other.Hunter's Claim centered around more than the main couple. I loved that in addition to the love and romance, the was a strong emphasis of loyalty, commitment, and caring that extended to family and friends.There was a lot of romantic hot scenes, exciting and nail biting scenes as well as the adventure of coming to live  on an alien planet.  Jesse and Hunter's families and friends were all great secondary characters that provided a nice amount of humor , drama and depth to the storyline. I can't wait to read about them in upcoming books.
