This is book number 8 in the Dark-Hunter Novels series.
Sherrilyn Kenyon has created a wonderful, rich series in the Dark Hunter/Were-Hunter novels. Unleash the Night is the 10th in the series, but you can read it as a stand-alone. Wren Tigarian and Marguerite D’Aubert Gourdeau’s story is full of romance, drama, and humor. The two are attracted to each other from the start, but they have a lot to overcome to be together. Wren is part snow leopard, part white tiger, and all man. He has had many problems in his childhood and adult life. Between humans that will never trust him nor accept him because of his animal nature, and the other Were-Hunters that don’t trust him because he isn’t the most even-tempered, he has never had it easy. But he always fights for what he wants, and he wants Marguerite. Marguerite, or Maggie to her close friends, isn’t from his world, she is purely human and doesn’t realize the dangers that surround Wren. But she knows that there is something about him that calls to her blood, to her soul. The two of them must fight to stay together and for each other. The struggles that they go through, and the changes that they make for each other makes this story is in my top 5 of the entire series and it is one I routinely go back to read again and again. I can never get enough of Wren and Maggie. -Victoria
It's a predator eat predator world for the Were-Hunters. Danger haunts any given day. There is no one to trust. No one to love. Not if they want to live…
An orphan with no clan that will claim him, Wren Tigarian grew to adulthood under the close scrutiny and mistrust of those around him. A forbidden blend of two animals—snow leopard and white tiger—Wren has never listened to anyone when there was something he wanted. Now he wants Marguerite.
Marguerite D'Aubert Goudeau is the daughter of a prominent U.S. Senator who hates the socialite life she's forced to live. Like her mother before her, she has strong Cajun roots that her father doesn't understand. Still, she has no choice but to try and conform to a world where she feels like an outsider. But the world of rich and powerful humans is never to meet the world of the Were-Hunters who exist side by side with them, unseen, unknown, undetected. To break this law is to call down a wrath of the highest order.
In order to have Marguerite, Wren must fight not just the humans who will never accept his animal nature, but the Were-Hunters who want him dead for endangering their world. It's a race against time and magic without boundary that could cost Marguerite and Wren not just their lives, but their very souls…
