“THE UNWANTED is my favorite story so far in this series.” ~Under the Covers
You can always count on Shiloh Walker to deliver a story full of suspense, damaged characters and how they make their way to each other. Destin and Caleb are a perfect example of that.
As a fan of second chance love stories, I was rooting for Destin and Caleb from the start. They ended their relationship years ago precisely because of their psychic gifts. And the fact that they can work well together is what brings them together again. More mature, more life experience. They realize now what they had and maybe what they could again.
This is a novella and it was a quick read, but I also felt that Shiloh didn’t torture her characters as much in this present story. I think they probably have been tortured enough prior to getting to this point.
I always love reading Shiloh letting you get in the mindset of a bad guy. Through Destin we also experience some of the victims since this is who she can psychically connect to. This story was perhaps a bit less gritty than some of the other stories in this series, but no less serious. There’s a rapist that needs to be stopped and only a powerful team of psychics to get to him.
Although I would’ve loved to see more action, I think the romance and the rediscovery of the main characters carried this story very well. THE UNWANTED is my favorite story so far in this series.

About Shiloh Walker
Shiloh Walker has been writing since she was a kid. She fell in love with vampires with the book Bunnicula and has worked her way up to the more...ah...serious vampire stories. She loves reading and writing anything paranormal, anything fantasy, and nearly every kind of romance. Once upon a time she worked as a nurse, but now she writes full time and lives with her family in the Midwest.
I get easily distracted by pictures of sexy guys and have tons of book boyfriends.I keep all my alpha males chained to my basement and guard them fiercely.*Back off bitches*I like to see Jason Momoa as a lot of those boyfriends, because ….. mmmmmmm JASON.MOMOA!
I’m a part time graphic designer (yes, everything you see on UTC has been done by me), run my husband's business from home and on a good day I’m a self appointed superwoman (she who can do it all).I love blogging with my girls and I couldn’t do it any other way!My first love is everything paranormal, but in the past few years I’ve re-learned to love contemporary romance.Every once in a while I like to mix things up with a historical romance, a steampunk or an LGBT book.Because I need variety to avoid book slumps.I don’t always need an HEA although I prefer one, and I love authors that can rip my heart out and make me ugly cry.
