Evanee Brown has always been different but when her past
comes back to attack her, Lathan Montgomery is there to
save her. Lathan, is a special consultant for the FBI and
he knows a lot about being different. He can literally
smell the dark memories you are trying to hide. While on
the search for "the Strategist" a serial killer, Lathan
finds a woman who needs him and seeks to HUNT THE DAWN
together.
When she finds herself coming up with evidence in her
dreams that could help him, they begin to work together,
but can they both survive a world that seems so dark and
dangerous.
HUNT THE DAWN is book 2 of Abbie Roads Fatal
Dreams series. We met Lathan for a bit in RACE THE
DARKNESS (book 1) and instead of being anti-social and
rude as we
believed, the truth about him comes out as we get to know
him so much better. With the "gift" it is also a curse, it
is hard for him to be in public as the scents overwhelm
him. On top of that he lost most of his hearing in an
attack, when his parents had him committed because, of
course, he was crazy thinking he could sense memories.
There is a growing closeness with this damaged couple that
is great to watch. I thought it sweet how he kept referring
to her as Honey until we got to the part about his hearing
and realized ... Evanee ... Honey sounded the same to him.
One of my favorite things about a series is the possible
return of past characters and Xander and Isleen do make an app
appearance.
I must warn readers that this book is a dark, very nearly
horror read. It runs a gambit of situations starting with
her having gone through being attacked and forced to run
and working in bar while living in a sleazy motel, Lathan
with his family situation and his curse followed by
numerous other dangerous situations that arise. Top that
off with Evanee's dream world, the surprise identity of the
serial killer and HUNT THE DAWN compels you, you might
even say commands you to keep reading. You might need a
night light for a little while after reading this but it is
well worth it.
You can't hide your secrets from Lathan Montgomery-he can
read your darkest memories. And while his special abilities
are invaluable in the FBI's hunt for a serial killer, he has
no way to avoid the pain that brings him. Until he is drawn
to courageous, down-on-her-luck Evanee Brown and finds
himself able to offer her something he's never offered
another human being: himself.
Dawns a unique and powerful love
Nightmares are nothing new to Evanee Brown. But once she
meets Lathan, they plummet into the realm of the macabre.
Murder victims are reaching from beyond the grave to give
Evanee evidence that could help Lathan bring a terrifying
killer to justice. Together, they could forge an indomitable
partnership to thwart violence, abuse, and death-if they
survive the forces that seek to tear them apart.
