Destin Mortin is a psychic previously working for the FBI
until a disastrous case ends her job in that capacity. Now
working for Elise "Oz" Oswald, she is the best in tracking
rapists through her dream-like visions which ultimately
cause her horrendous nosebleeds and severe headaches while
in her trances, along with awful nightmares. Destin carries
hidden nightmares of her own which she has created internal
shields to keep her secrets from others.
Destin worked with Caleb Durand closely until 5 years ago
when he walked out on her. Caleb was her filter and
protected her as they worked closely together. Deeply in
love with each other and totally in sync Caleb's desertion
was a complete mystery to Destin. Now her boss has enlisted
Caleb from the FBI to work with Destin on a high priority
series of date rape cases at the college in Charlottesville,
Virginia. Working together again is against the grain for
both of them but neither has an option since they complement
each other's abilities in solving cases. Both realize Oz is
hiding an important facet of the case but they eventually
uncover the source as they survey the campus and observe the
students and faculty. None of this is accomplished without
slipping back into why he left Destin and involving them
again in the hot and passionate sex they are driven to.
THE UNWANTED is the first I have read by Shiloh Walker and
was
very pleased with the excitement and subject of psychics
working to bring the culprits of date rapes to justice. The
amazing abilities and talents of a psychic are most
interesting, which adds great dimension to the tale. This
author is exceptionally talented and was able to hold my
devoted interest throughout the story. The only complaint
is that I was so engrossed in the story that it ended too
soon for me! Thank you, Shiloh!
SUMMARY
She doesn’t want him. He doesn’t need her. Like hell… An FBI Psychics Novella Destin Mortin’s psychic gift comes with an ugly twist—she
excels at tracking down violent rapists. But it’s rough on
relationships. Once, her partner Caleb was her everything:
filter, shield, rescuer, lover. The only man who didn’t
think her a freak. Then he walked away. Destin turned her back on the FBI to work for a private
agency, but now a particularly horrendous case has come up,
and her boss wants her paired with only the best. For Caleb Durand, leaving Destin was an act of
self-preservation. Every time she flung herself headlong
into dangerous situations, every time he nursed her through
soul-crushing visions, he’d died a little more inside. Now they are forced to work together one last time. Tragedy
has changed them both, but Caleb knows if he lowers his
shields for an instant, he won’t have an icicle’s chance in
hell of resisting the temptation to lose himself in her wild
power. But to catch the rapist, it’s exactly what he’ll have to do. Warning: Contains tortured souls who have lost love and
pined for their missing half, a woman who can see evil, and
a hot FBI agent.
