Hunter’s Edge by Shiloh Walker

Some love can last a lifetime-their love was destined to last longer. Angel’s first words to Kel were I’m going to marry you.

She was seven at the time. He was eight. And he didn’t laugh when she spoke the words. Best friends as children, lovers as young adults, they had an unexplainable bond. Their future looked set. Until the night they were attacked by a creature that couldn’t exist.

Angel survived the attack-barely. But Kel didn’t. Or at least, nobody thought he did. His body was never found and Angel’s life would never be the same. The attack might not have killed Kel’s body, but it sure as hell killed his heart.

Twelve years later, there’s one part of his former life that he can’t move past. Angel. He can’t let her go, but he can’t have her either. She doesn’t even realize he is still alive. But when a threat surfaces, Kel’s willing to do whatever it takes to protect Angel. Even if it drives them both to the edge of insanity and back.

Warning: Some violence. Some sex. Some bloody violence. Even a little bit of bloody sex. Not all of the sex is between the hero and the heroine, even though every time that happens, the hero closes his eyes and thinks of England…er, Angel. Not exactly a traditional romance, but I promise it does end with an HEA.
