Nessa and Dominic are both haunted by memories of a past
shrouded by death. Soul mates and lovers separated by over
five hundred years, the darkness they both fight may be the
very thing that will keep them apart for eternity.
Nessa
has waited for five centuries for her love to come back to
her, now the most powerful witch of the Hunter's is weary
of life and heartsick of losing all she let's into her
life. Taking on risky life endangering missions, Nessa
survives with unusual consequences. Dominic has dreamed of
a different life, a different time his entire life, first,
as a human, and now as a vampire and a Hunter. But the
dreams have taken on a darker edge and he has to race to
prevent a HUNTER'S FALL.
Tragedy is the theme to the newest addition of Shiloh
Walker's Hunter series, HUNTER'S FALL. The dark tones of
the story only begin to ease up when Nessa and Dominic find
not only themselves but each other. Long-time fans will
see some familiar and favorite characters giving our duo
support from the sidelines as well a new faces for new
storyline hopefuls. First time readers won't be lost and
will be able to read this as a standalone book though it is
part of a series and there are characters from previous
stories that help build the world and storyline.
Keeping the main characters on edge throughout the story
gave HUNTER'S FALL a tone rarely seen in the genre. Shiloh
Walker keeps the characters true to form and it is an
interesting read to see main characters who deal with the
harsher sides of being a good guy, especially for over five
centuries in Nessa's case.
In all, Shiloh Walker's HUNTER'S FALL keeps the reader
guessing as to what will happen next and whether or not
Nessa and Dominic will ever find happiness in the end and
is well worth the read.
UNKNOWN PAST
Something strange is happening to Nessa. Ever since she
survived a near-death experience she’s not exactly who she
used to be—and enjoying every minute of it. Then she’s
called upon to go to battle against darkness. If only she
could remember why.
UNEXPECTED LOVER
Dominic is having his own problems with memory, sanity, and
hallucinations. Sent to Excelsior, the covert Hunter
training facility, he senses a female presence that seems
so hauntingly familiar. That’s because he and Nessa share a
forgotten past.
UNSEEN EVIL
As Nessa and Dominic regain their memories, their strange
mission against evil becomes clearer. And all the more
dangerous because whether they should trust each other is
the still the greatest unknown of all.
Excerpt
She cried.
His pretty little witch was crying.
Standing in a field of stone, surrounded by people, yet
utterly alone.
Day bled into night and the people drifted from her side
and
still she cried. She was alone now, save for one woman and
one man.
Anger bit into him as the man—the vampire—dared to lift a
hand to touch the witch. Dared to wrap a big arm around her
slender shoulders and draw her close.
Tears choked him.
Her pain racked him.
He wanted to reach out to her. He wanted to be the one to
comfort her, to hold her against him as she wept.
But when he whispered her name, she didn’t hear him.
~*~
Dominic came awake with her name on his lip sand a tearing
pain in his heart.
Snarling, he fought free of the covers and dashed a hand
over his damp face. Crying. Damn it. Again. Dreams of some
woman he’d never met and he wakes up crying. He stared at
the pink smears on his fingertips and stormed into the
bathroom to wash away the blood-tinged tears.
With water dripping from his face, he looked at the mirror.
A muscle worked in his jaw and he gripped the edge of the
marble counter.
"This is ridiculous," he muttered.
He was obsessed. Obsessed, dreaming about the same woman,
night after night, year after year. And now he was even
crying like some pansy in his dreams.
"What in the hell is this?" Shoving away from the
counter,
he strode to the enclosed shower and turned on the water
with an angry flick of his wrist. He needed a damn hot
shower, he needed a good hard run,maybe even a down and
dirty fight—if he could get all three of those, it
might lighten his dark mood.
But somehow he doubted it.
The dreams were getting worse, and he had a bad feeling he
knew why.
Dominic Ralston was going crazy.
