Product Description

Claire, Tempest, and Leona: triplets blessed—or cursed—each with a special extra sense that they would deny, given the chance . . .

Claire, the youngest, finds solitude and escape in rural Montana. The descendant of an ancient Celtic seer, she struggles to conceal her unsettling power to sense what others feel—the good and the evil, the pain and the joy.

When her peace is shattered by her new neighbor, Neil Olafson, Claire's shielded emotions start simmering. He's the opposite of everything she's ever wanted, a man who ignites her latent sensuality. And while her eerie powers have frightened others away, Neil isn't running. And when Claire comes face-to-face with danger, he becomes her protector—as well as her lover.

Now, Claire and Neil must confront the past and save the life of a young innocent. But there is a killer lurking in the background who wants them both dead before they can unravel his dirty secrets. And he's been very busy . . .

5.0 out of 5 stars Powerful! , May 31, 2007

By	Deborah Wiley (Winter Haven, FL) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)

Claire Brown is an empath and emotions have overwhelmed her ever since several traumatic events increased her powers. Neil Olafson has just moved into the neighboring home after the death of his aunt and Neil is all noisy and emotional. Claire doesn't like Neil's presence at first but a bond is about to be forged as dark forces are working against both of them.

Cait London has written a powerful and haunting tale. The characters of Claire and Neil are very well developed and their relationship is beautifully done. The attraction and love that flares up between them seems so natural as this is perhaps one of the best crafted romances I have ever had the privilege of reading. Ms. London draws the reader into the heart of their complex and deeply emotional relationship and makes one truly care about what the future holds for Claire and Neil.

Atmosphere is a very important aspect of what makes AT THE EDGE such a phenomenal story. When Cait London describes the tendrils of fog, it is as if one is actually there. The eerie depictions of the fog sent chills down my spine! The vivid images Ms. London creates are exceptional and add to the impact of the storyline.


AT THE EDGE is both a powerful romance novel and an exceptional paranormal story. This was my first time reading a book by Cait London but it certainly won't be my last! Highly recommended!

2.0 out of 5 stars Confusing, June 17, 2007

By	Mkath - See all my reviews

This book was such a mish mash. Also it had to much forshadowing. I get it there will be four more books, just please tell this story and stop forshadowing the other books. In the end the book was a let down

2.0 out of 5 stars A Disappontment!, June 2, 2007

By	P. fagan (newark, de.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have read other books by this author and loved them, however, this book was a big dissappontment. After reading the synopsis I couldn't wait to read it but after several chapters I realized that this book has some real problems. The empathic psychic powers that Clair exhibits should add poignancy to the story--particularly with Neil (her soon to be lover whose infant son was kidnapped some years ago) but instead is taken to such extremes that it detracts from the story---can't be near ANYONE paticularly family, empathic feelings linger for hours even DAYS and become her own making her violent or sex starved--please! Also, the continued inability to handle her powers soon became trying and eventually just boring. When I bought this book I was looking forward to a great trilogy instead I think I'll just skip the next two.
