Talon of the Morrigantes is a cursed being. Not only is he an immortal Dark Hunter (a slayer of the soul-sucking daimons who feed off of humans), but as a mortal man he unwittingly brought down the wrath of the Celtic god Camulus on himself. The god cursed him to watch all of his loved ones die. It is for that reason he is reluctant to get close to Sunshine Runningwolf, a starving artist who saves him after being hit by a Mardi Gras float. What he doesn't know is that it's impossible not to fall in love with her: she's his soul mate. But now he's got bigger problems. Not only does Camulus want to kill Sunshine, but he has teamed up with the Greek god of excess Dionysus. The two gods are sick of not having power. They know the time has come for the door between Earth and the Atlantean underworld to be thin. It will be possible to break free the Atlantean goddess The Destroyer from her prison. But they need the blood of an Atlantean: the leader of the Dark Hunters, Acheron. Talon is the only one who can stop them, but is he so concerned with Sunshine that his legendary control is breaking?

as always, the mythology.

Sherrilyn Kenyon has a knack for amazing characters and great romantic scenes. And when you can laugh outloud while reading, you know you've got a keeper.

This is book 2 of Kenyon's Dark Hunter series.
