Ryker Bennett and Jenna Sinclair are two lovers who are torn apart in this short story by Gwen Knight.
Ryker Bennett is a Hunter, someone who hunts down and kills darklings - witches, vampires, and werewolves. Aided by the Church he and his four brothers are given the name of the darkling that they need to kill. After discovering she is a witch Jenna Sinclair left Ryker two years ago to protect him from having to make a choice, following his brothers and their church sworn duty to kill her or going against everything he knows to choose her and their love.
One day Ryker's family was assigned a familiar name - Jenna's. What happens after he tracks her down is what makes this short story worth reading. Perfect for a break, or lunch time reading. I'd love to see this story and thoughtful characters expanded upon and have a full length novel follow-up.
Knight Delivers Again
"A Hunter's Passion" was a story I waited for with bated breath, and it was worth it!
Gwen Knight has woven together the beginning of a series that had me intrigued from the very first page. Hunters: men and women who seek to rout out the evil beings of the world, getting their leads from the church. The Bennett brothers have made it a family legacy to put their lives on the line to make the world a better place, and they do it with such style, too!
Ryker is one of the Bennetts, and he finds out that the woman he still loves is one of those creatures he's sworn to protect the rest of the world from. The maelstrom of emotions from both Ryker and Jenna are incredibly portrayed, and their passion leaves you wanting more.
I am BEYOND excited to read more about the Bennett Bros, and see what other types of trouble they can get themselves into! Congratulations on another awesome publication, Gwen!

Ryker is in the family business. He hunts the supernatural creatures that prey on humans. He thought Jenna had run as far from him as she could two years ago because of his occupation. As a hunter, he knew his bloody work would send females screaming into the night. Now, when he's given the name of next dark prey to take down, he's shocked to find it's Jenna.
Jenna is a sweet librarian with a secret life. She's a witch. And when she meets the compelling Ryker again after two years, she knows she's Ryker's next target.
Ryker has hunted vampires, demons, werewolves, shape-shifters, and witches. Can the cynical hunter find the shimmering strand of love in the dark, tangled skein of evil?
The Hunter's Passion, by Gwen Knight, is a short romance well worth the read. Ms. Knight uses her words wisely, and constructs characters with strengths and weaknesses. Tough Ryker, fearless in battle with horrible nightmarish entities, has a cute little phobia. I particularly like Father Stewart, the renegade, flask-toting priest. Of course, the whiskey he carries is for medicinal purposes.
A story set in 10 years time where two bodies are found in the river NITH in Dumfries, south west Scotland. One is a blind musician and police informant while the other is Poppy, a young girl. It brings Mark and Carla together with different views i
