| Guild Hunters Book 1 |
Vampire hunter Elena Deveraux knows she is the best- but she does not know if even she is good enough for this job. Hired by the dangerously beautiful archangel Raphael, a being so lethal that no mortal wants his attention, Elena knows failure is not an option—even if the task is impossible.
Because this time, it's not a wayward vamp she has to track. It's an archangel gone bad.
The job will put Elena in the midst of a killing spree like no other—and pull her to the razor's edge of passion. Even if the hunt does not destroy her, succumbing to Raphael’s seductive touch just might. For when archangels play, mortals break.

My Review: 5/5 Stars
After reading Nalini Singh’s addicting Psy-Changeling novels, i had to see what her Guild Hunter novels had to offer. And she does not disappoint. She sets up another modern day world but instead of the Psy and Changelings, we get angels and vampires. There were so many different aspects of this story that i loved. The creativity was once again superb and the love story was heart-achingly good. But one of the things that really got me was the main heroine, Elena Deveraux. A beautiful, tough as nails skilled hunter, who is such a strong female character, i couldn’t help but be addicted to the book. She isn’t put down for being a woman, she is actually considered the best at what she does at the Guild. She is respected even among the angels and vampires. It is was draws her to the big bad archangel, Raphael.
The chemistry between Elena and Raphael is electric. Their banter is hilarious and the serious moments between the two are so real and raw. As powerful and scary as Raphael is, Elena admits her fear, but that isn’t enough to stop herself from falling for the archangel. Her mortality and heart is irresistible to Raphael. They challenge one another constantly, each holding their own broken pasts that only surface for one another. Giving them a real connection and relationship.
The secondary characters are just as intense and interesting as Elena and Raphael. Whether they are friends of Elena’s from the Guild or the Seven that make up Raphael’s most trusted friends and soldiers. I look forward to learning more about them and especially those who are honored to have their own books in the series. No one is left out and no one should be. It makes the world Singh creates even more interesting.
Action-packed. Elena’s hunter-born abilities are tested to help Raphael on a hush-hush mission to find an out of control archangel. There is never a dull moment in this book. Especially with an ending that you can’t help but “fall” for.
