Cullen Morgan fell in love with the exotic beauty the first time he saw her. Only Taige Branch wanted nothing to do with him until he rescued her from a violent attack. Each day they spent together, he fell further under her spell. There was something special about her. He just doesn’t realize how special until he witnessed her performing a miracle. 

Taige knew he’d break her heart, but once Cullen bullied his way in her life, she could no longer pretend that he didn’t matter. When her gift failed her and tragedy struck, Taige was helpless as everyone else, swept along in the events that tore apart their love.  

All her life Taige ran from her gift. When she lost everything, she turned her life around and embraced her powers. Now she hunted killers and protected others when no one else could. So when Cullen’s daughter went missing, Taige was his only hope. He’s never forgotten her and kept tabs on her since the day he forced her out of his life. When they meet again, the attraction between them was stronger than ever. But will it be enough this time around when the killer they hunted targeted Cullen’s daughter as the next victim? 

I’m not a fan of novels that span years, but Shiloh Walker changed my mind, writing a very emotional and heart-aching tale of enduring love. The tension slowly increases in each chapter as the killer closes in on them. Good, quick descriptions created a believable world that swept me up in their lives. One thing I particularly like is that the characters are almost painfully human. I enjoyed the heat between the characters, but fell in love with them when they learn that a future together is sometimes worth the risk. This is another fantastic book by Shiloh Walker.
