Book 1
Tori McAdams was a sensible woman. She didn’t believe in hocus-pocus, she didn’t believe in ghosts, and she definitely didn’t believe in vampires…not until the night she was attacked by one. Alone, starving and afraid, she doesn’t know what’s happening but at least she had somebody to turn to…
Declan Reilly was normally the last person she’d go to for help, but now he was the first on her list. He can help; she knows he can. She never could have planned on what happens next, though…the sexy detective is so much more than he appears.
Warning This book contains violence, sex, more violent, a maniacal murderer, sex, more violence, and a menage or two thrown in for good measure.
Book 2
Three centuries is a long time to spend alone…but Elijah Crawford is used to it. He’s got his friends, he’s got thugs to kill, and a mild obsession with an on-and-off again lover to keep him occupied.
But then a woman appears in his dark world, one who just might bring some light to those endless nights. Just one look makes him hunger. Just one glimpse makes him burn.
There’s just one complication. She wants him dead.
Sarel Chandler knows all about vampires and she knows all about monsters–or so she thinks. The monster she knows as Elijah Crawford is responsible for the death of her sister and she’s going to see that he pays for it.
There’s just one complication…she’s completely wrong…and she’s about to pay for it in so many ways.
Warning This book contains a pissed-off witch, a sexy Master vampire, some serious ménage action and lots of one-on-one time…of the up-close-and-personal variety. And I do mean lots…
The Hunters Boxed Set Books 1 2 Declan and Tori Eli and Sarel edition by Shiloh Walker Literature Fiction eBooks
I recently read (and loved!) Shiloh Walker's stand-alone paranormal romance novel, `The Missing'. I had been meaning to read a Shiloh Walker novel for some time, based on the solid recommendations of many fellow paranormal-romance lovers who highly recommend her work.So I decided to give her long-running paranormal erotica series, `The Hunters' a read. This series is currently eleven books deep, and have recently been re-released to include two-stories-for-one.
I was really excited to delve in Walker's world, especially with the memory of `The Missing' fresh in my mind. Sadly, I found these books to be quick, throw-away reads with little substance but lots of smuttiness.
*** Declan and Tori ***
Tori is a private investigator on the hunt for a psychotic stalker. This guy is a real nut-job, believing himself to be a `vampire' and frightening his victim so much that she's also convinced of his fanged bloodthirstiness.
But it's too late for Tori when she learns the truth - vampires are real, supernaturals stalk the night and she has just been bitten . . . and is turning into a vampire.
She turns to the person she trusts most in the world - a local cop called Declan who she has been lusting after from their first meeting.
Declan can smell the change coming on Tori, because he is a werewolf. He can also smell that she is his mate, his to protect and save from the crazed vampire who is hell-bent on making her his master. Luckily, Declan is a werewolf and can offer a helping-hand with Tori's transition . . . while at the same time succumbing to their mating bond.
Walker's first book in `The Hunters' series feels like half a novel. Reader's are instantly on the back foot because Delcan and Tori have known (and worked) with each other for months already. Her as a PI, and he has her police informant. They have been fighting a burning attraction since their first meeting, or so we're told.
It's hard to play catch-up with this couple and really feel the attraction that Walker tells us is scorching between them. Honestly, it felt like Walker was rushing their romance so she could jump right into their bedroom sport (of which there is PLENTY).
I have no problems with a good bit of erotica. And paranormal-erotica is a particular favourite of mine . . . but even I need a bit more build-up and back-story before being thrown into such scorching sex scenes. It felt like Walker did a slight cheat by putting all of Declan and Tori's attraction down to months of pent-up sexual frustration and yearning.
Things get particularly heated and ménage when Declan takes Tori to a vampire master friend of his, to show her the ropes. Elijah Crawford feels an instant attraction to Tori . . . and the three of them engage in some more bedroom shenanigans.
Once again, instant attraction + lots of sex didn't really equal `hot' to me. It all felt rushed, and slightly dirtily-lascivious in the wake of Declan and Tori's bond (effectively a marriage). And I again felt like Walker copped-out by putting it down to (yet another) instant attraction between Eli and Tori. . .
Having said that, I was very intrigued by Eli. He is a very old, very lonely vampire - and while he enjoys his ménage with Declan and Tori, he also harbours a burning jealousy for what the two of them share. Knowing that Eli's novel was #2 in `The Hunters' series kept me going when I was experiencing some serious scepticism . . .
*** Eli And Sarel: ***
Elijah Crawford is a centuries-old vampire, but he's lonely and bored as hell. For years now he has watched his best friend reap the benefits of love with the women Eli also harbours an intense lust for. But what Declan and Tori have is not meant for Eli. And when a witch, hell-bent on misguided vengeance, sets out to kill him he almost welcomes the release of death-oblivion.
What he doesn't count on is an intense attraction to the witchy hellion, and what he is willing to do to keep her, forever.
I quite liked the character set-up for Eli in book #1. He's that lovely sort of tortured hero - ancient and lonely and on the brink of ending his mortality.
This series started to perk-up for me when Eli meets his mate in the most unusual of circumstances - with her hell-bent on murdering him.
But then Walker lost me again by skipping the novel ahead five years and (conveniently) saying that both Eli and Sarel had been pining for one another throughout those five years. . . urgh. Half a decade worth of wanting and lust and Walker just breezed over it and (once again) went straight to the sex.
I was really impressed with Shiloh Walker's stand-alone paranormal romance thriller `The Missing'. That was a novel of sweet yearning and complex characters, and I thought that Walker's first forays into paranormal romance would follow along similarly heatedly-multifaceted plot lines. Sadly, no. The first two novels in her `The Hunters' series are cheap tricks; full of smut but little else. Admittedly, the first five novels of the series were published by Ellora's Cave (notoriously smutty), while the last three books (with slightly naffier front-covers) are Berkley Sensation publications. It does look as though the series was improved over time . . . . but, honestly, I can't be bothered wading through books 3 - 7 to get to the good stuff.
Admittedly, Walker knows what she's doing when it comes to writing bedroom sport. Those scenes were gratuitously sexy (and if you want a bit of easy, sexy reading then I highly recommend) - but when there's no characterization or plot to back it up, the books deteriorate into cheap erotic thrills.

The Hunters Boxed Set Books 1 2 Declan and Tori Eli and Sarel edition by Shiloh Walker Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
This book is great. Its hot, lots of sex and I am not going to beat around the bush about that. However, it is pure erotica, not porn like some reviewers wrote. Believe me I know the difference; I have read some of those, Black Lace anyone?
This book contains the first two stories of the Hunters, Declan and Tori (Shape shifter and Vampire) and Eli and Sarel (Vampire/Witch). It is a fantasy but it is very well written and you can relate very easily to all the characters. This is a keeper for me and I will be checking out the rest of these series.
I have just one thing to add here, people should really read the label before buying the product. There is no sense at all in anyone buying a book that clearly says erotica and then trashing it just because it delivers.
I don't normally read these types of books seeking enlightenment through literature. That being said, I got out of this book what I was expecting but was pleasantly surprised by the extra. The extra being that it was well written with the storyline that flowed. I was also pleased that the characters were developed and that they were stand-alone books.
There are warning statements saying these books contain sexually explicit language. Believe them! I just want to warn/inform anyone looking for a story in these books will be disappointed. They are simply narrative pornography. I'm no prude but gee whiz, if the author had put as much time and detail into the plot and storytelling as the sex scenes it may have been a fun read. Instead it left you with a feeling of yuck - enough already- "TMI for goodness sake".
Shiloh Walker's Hunters The Beginning contains the first two stories from her Hunters series. The first story Declan and Tori starts off her Hunters series. Tori is a detective who is bitten by a vampire while doing her job. Starving and not sure what is wrong with her she turns to Declan, a police detective, for help. Little does she realize that he is a werewolf.
The second story is Eli and Sarel. Eli is a powerful vampire and Sarel is the witch who is trying to kill him. Sarel believes that Eli killed her family so she's determined that he will pay. She almost accomplishes her goal before she realises that Eli is not the guilty party.
***Shiloh Walker is most certainly an author to watch. Her books are loaded with steamy, erotic love scenes. But unlike many authors who write romantica(erotic romance) the highly erotic nature of the book does not distract from the romance or the storyline of the book. However, readers who are not comfortable with books that have non-traditional love scenes will probably not like this book but those who are looking for a lushly sensual story will do well to give The Hunters a try, you won't be disappointed.*****
I have to agree with some of the other reviews that this book was like reading porn instead of watching it. While the story line is ok and somewhat entertaining, I'm not used to reading such graphic sex scenes involving more than the two main characters. It's like reading an orgy! I prefer more romance that may include sex than people just screwing and later finding out they were destined to be together. This series is a bit too much for me.
I tried to give this series a chance, reading books one, two and part of three, but it is entirely too juvenile. Being a huge fan of the Black Dagger Brotherhood series I had hoped that I had come across a similar series in which each book would be the love story between two individuals but no. There is little to no character development and the "intimate" scenes read like a teenage boy fantasizing during puberty. I recognize not all of us enjoy the same predilections but come on every single encounter either starts or ends with anal? I also wonder, what virgin woman is gung-ho on threesomes right out of the gate? This series, at least the first three books, are simply porn on paper - and this is from someone coming off of the 50 Shades trilogy.
