"excellent thriller"
Bone weary, Vax has left the hero protection game of a
Hunter to become a rancher. However, the former "defender
of the innocent and helpless" is forced back into his
previous occupation when he saves the life of obsessed
reporter Jess. Feeling guilt for not protecting her much
younger sister Randi, as she had vowed to do when they
buried their parents eight years ago in Indiana, the
intrepid Jess seeks the killer of her sibling; but if not
for Vax's quick actions, Jess would have joined her sister. Vax agrees to help Jess uncover the identity of her
sibling's murderer as she recognizes through her psychic
ability the paranormal skills he possesses. Attracted to
one another, the former paranormal law enforcement
official and the journalist follow the clues not realizing
the horror they will meet when an evil individual is
creating a new type of monster that could destroy everyone
in its path. The latest Hunter paranormal romantic suspense is one of
the best tales in a series that always achieves high
marks. The story line is fast-paced but driven by the
lead couple as a reluctant Vax helps a fixated Jess by
keeping her relatively safe (a near impossible chore) and
assisting her with the investigation even as they fall in
love. Shiloh Walker provides an excellent thriller that
sub-genre fans will appreciate. Harriet Klausner

SummaryHIS MISSION
Vax was once committed to his life as a Hunter, tracking
down the evil beings who prey on humans, but he opted out of
the game long ago. Until now—because somebody,
somewhere, is in danger. And, despite his best efforts, Vax
can't ignore his calling?
HER SACRIFICE
Jess Warren is determined to find the maniac who killed her
sister. A gifted psychic and telekinetic, she will do
anything to exact her vengeance. Even if it means putting
herself in peril...
THEIR INSATIABLE DESIRE
Jess would rather not accept Vax's help—especially
since letting him have his way could draw her deeper into
his irresistibly sensuous realm. But then he saves her
life—and they discover that the depraved madman they've
been looking for is much closer than either of them could
have imagined...
