Product Description

Some love can last a lifetime-their love was destined to last longer. Angel's first words to Kel were I'm going to marry you. She was seven at the time. He was eight. And he didn't laugh when she spoke the words. Best friends as children, lovers as young adults, they had an unexplainable bond. Their future looked set. Until the night they were attacked by a creature that couldn't exist. Angel survived the attack-barely. But Kel didn't. Or at least, nobody thought he did. His body was never found and Angel's life would never be the same. The attack might not have killed Kel's body, but it sure as hell killed his heart. Twelve years later, there's one part of his former life that he can't move past. Angel. He can't let her go, but he can't have her either. She doesn't even realize he is still alive. But when a threat surfaces, Kel's willing to do whatever it takes to protect Angel. Even if it drives them both to the edge of insanity and back. Warning: Some violence. Some sex. Some bloody violence. Even a little bit of bloody sex. Not all of the sex is between the hero and the heroine, even though every time that happens, the hero closes his eyes and thinks of England Angel. Not exactly a traditional romance, but I promise it does end HEA.

5.0 out of 5 stars 4.5 Blue Ribbons from Romance Junkies!, August 28, 2008

By	Natalie S "ns65" (Nashville) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER)

In Shiloh Walker's HUNTER'S EDGE, readers are introduced to Angel and Kel. In love since childhood, they were torn apart by brutality. Never able to forget each other, their love remains strong.

Kel and Angel were inseparable. From the first moment that Angel met Kel, she vowed then and there, at eight years old, that she was going to marry him. Of course, that is not something that a boy wants to hear, but as they grew older and became first friends and then lovers, Kel and Angel's feelings for each other never dimmed. When Kel is killed protecting Angel from an evil her mind can't fathom, Angel feels as if her life is over. She battles depression and dark dreams. She feels as if she is going crazy. But through it all, she still loves Kel with every beat of her heart. While she thinks she is losing her mind, she can feel his presence and wishes he was with her.

Twelve years ago, Kel became one of the undead. Protecting his Angel against a vile and viscous attack, he was turned into the very thing he was fighting. Unable to get past the fact that he is now a vampire, Kel fights his destiny daily. One of the hunters now, he spends his time hunting down and eradicating rogue vampires. When Angel is threatened once more by the rogue that attacked them years ago, Kel has no choice but to protect Angel. He knows that he can't have her any longer, but he is unable to leave her alone and at the mercy of the evil that is stalking her.

HUNTER'S EDGE is a dark and stormy read. Not a typical romance, everything is not candy and roses for the hero and heroine. Their lives ended almost twelve years ago and since then, neither has been able to forget the other. Angel's memories are plagued with nightmares and yearnings she can't explain. Depression is predominant and Kel experiences pretty much the same. He loves his Angel but refuses to expose her to the darkness that has become his life. I found myself teary eyed more than once, but I can promise that while HUNTER'S EDGE is suspenseful and edgy, it also has a happy ever after. Shiloh Walker makes sure of that! HUNTER'S EDGE is available from Samhain Publishing.

5.0 out of 5 stars Hunter's Edge , December 14, 2008

By	M. Nix "Joyfully Reviewed" - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Kelvin (Kel) Saunders met the new girl in his elementary school in a most unique way - she said that she was going to marry him one day. Kel was unsure of Angel then, but as the years went on, he always seemed to know when Angel needed him and their feelings grew as they did. Until one night when Kel felt terror from Angel and he rushed to her - a night that changed his life.

Angelica (Angel) Pierson knew who Kel would be to her from the moment she laid eyes on him. Angel never doubted that Kel would be there for her and he always was, even one horrible night when she was attacked. But when Angel woke up in the hospital, it was to learn Kel was gone. Picking up the pieces of her life and going on only half-worked for Angel.

Kel was changed that night and now twelve years later, he is still trying to get over not being able to be with Angel. He knows that the others are unsure what to make of him even though he is on their team. One night Kel learns that Angel is in danger and nothing, not even his boss, is going to keep Kel from protecting Angel. Angel has been just going day-to-day and missing Kel every one. When danger once again targets Angel and she learns about Kel, will their lives be able to begin again? Or will time, distance, and pride keep them apart forever?

When fate has decided one thing, and what happens when it is interrupted, is what I discovered Hunter's Edge was all about. Angel just knows things sometimes and she knew that Kel was to be with her. Kel never expected to meet the girl he would love when he was seven, much less have her say so. My heart went out to both Angel and Kel, as the events that kept them apart seemed to be ongoing. Then when Kel fought like crazy to get to Angel and then she fought for him, once again I felt the sting of tears. All through Hunter's Edge, I kept thinking that you just shouldn't mess with what fate and love have decided is going to be. Kel and Angel showed not only that their love was strong, but also when you are lucky enough to find it with your soul mate, nothing can keep you apart.

I have loved and followed all of Ms. Walker's Hunters and from that respect, I have to say that Hunter's Edge is a must read. But if you have never picked up one of the Hunters books, then no worries, you can begin with Hunter's Edge and learn how the Hunters will grab you up and keep you in their grip.
