has a psychic ability, and her specialty happens to be
empathy. She can feel intense emotions and thoughts of
the people around her. Due to her inability to be around
people, Claire enjoys her solitude. When a new neighbor
moves in and threatens her solitude, she feels the power
within her growing. She has already been through a couple
of traumas that have enhanced her power, and she is not
sure she is ready for another round. Will she be able to
conquer the growing power or will it conquer her? Will
she embrace her unique family heritage?
Neil Olafson is a man who has experienced a lot of loss in
his life. The most recent loss is that of his Aunt
Eunice, the woman who took him in after the deaths of his
parents. He is determined to relocate his business to his
aunt's farmhouse. The only obstacle in his way is his
aunt's eccentric neighbor, Claire. He listens to her
pleas, but still does as he wishes. When an unfortunate
incident places Neil as Claire's protector, he begins to
know her on a more personal level. Will she ever open up
to him?
As Claire begins to spend more time with Neil, she becomes
bound to him in a very scary way. She can almost read
thoughts. When she senses the deep sadness that is a part
of him, she learns about his son who was kidnapped eight
years ago. She knows without a doubt that she is meant to
explore her psychic abilities to help him bring about
closure; however, it soon becomes apparent that someone
wants them dead. Who is the person trying to harm them?
Is it the same person who took a baby?
Cait London has created a very compelling romantic
thriller. The writing draws you into the lives of the
characters, and does not let you go. Claire's sisters,
Leona and Tempest, have amazing abilities of their own and
their relationship is an important dynamic. Their psychic
abilities are interesting and I found their uses
intriguing. The brief glimpses allow us to become
acquainted with the sisters who will each have their own
story. The action was constant and danger was almost
always present. This is a very suspenseful read, and a
wonderful romance. AT THE EDGE is a marvelous launching
point for a new trilogy.
Claire, Tempest and Leona: triplets blessed--or cursed--
each with a special extra sense that they would deny, given

Olafson, Claire's shielded emotions start simmering. But
while her eerie powers have frightened others away, Neil
isn't running.
