Why are Cynthia Eden's anti-hero's so delicious?

OMG. Ronan is a hot hitman who spur of the moment, decides to keep Luna Black. He fakes her death (there's a million dollar bounty on the drama teacher's head) and handcuffs her to his bed. Now what to do with her?

Luna Black knew she was being hunted. She was being hunted by multiple bounty hunters and hitmen. She just happened to want Ronan to be a hero. When she realized he was there to kill her, she kissed him before dying. Only she didn't.

Luna and Ronan steam up the pages as he tried to keep her and keep her alive.
Recommend.

She saw something that she was not meant to, and drama teacher Luna Black is running for her life! If only she would hear from her contact at the FBI, then maybe WITSEC could keep her alive? Before that can happen, her luck runs out and she is being chased through the streets of New Orleans. When a man steps out in front of her, is he her protector or her death sentence? Ronan Walker finds her in an alley trying to flee and knows that he must kill her…to keep her safe. He had no intention of getting involved with her, but her trust in his ability to save her, to save them has him wanting to keep her with him, for now…for forever? If so, the man who wants her dead must believe that she is dead or if not, the man must die. She wants the safety, but she always wants the adventure with him, to know him in all ways. As his supervisor plots how to keep them both alive, to end the threats against them, his friends join the hunt for those who put a hit on her and now on him. Those who seek to end her life have no idea that she is a fighter and will fight for the life she wants…with Ronan! A complete rush from beginning to end!! I received an advance review copy at no cost and without obligation for an honest review. (paytonpuppy)

Sexy romantic suspense that keeps you turning the pages. I adored Ronan but Luna was such a great character. I was completely invested in her. There's plenty of action and tension with just the right amount of humor. I'm never disappointed by this author. I can't wait for the next one!

Intriguing!

Great twists, beautiful connections, humor, action, drama, unique characters…..perfectly blended into an amazing story.

I voluntarily read an advanced copy.

When He Hunts is the second book in the Protector & Defender Series with the main hero being one who usually is the character, one has to be protected from in life. By Cynthia Eden who has a knack for showing how bad people may not be so bad after all. Ronan has a job to do, not really seeing Luna as a real person until he meets her. Then there is a change. Luna is not sure if Ronan is a good guy or a bad one. This reader is not sure at times either. Sometimes good people do bad things, and bad people are capable of doing good things. Heroes can come in all shapes, sizes and walks of life. So read for yourself to decide.

I so enjoy Cynthia Eden’s style of writing romantic suspense and her latest, When He Hunts, Book #2 in the Protector and Defender Series, hit all the marks for me again. Whether she’s writing about U.S. Marshals or FBI Agents or bodyguards or security guys or hitman (who aren’t really hitman...wink, wink), she nails this genre every single time. Luna Black is one fierce, brave, amazing woman and I was her cheerleader from Page 1. And Ms. Eden certainly knows how to write big, broody male alpha heros who have a heart of gold and will go to the ends of the earth for the ones they love. Ronan Walker is no different, but what I’m really enjoying with this series is the comradery among these men. They really are true blue friends and I’ve enjoyed their banter almost more than the romantic aspect of the story. Revisiting Tyler and Esme was a nice surprise that wasn’t just a quick revisit--they were actually part of this very well written and suspenseful read. I am so looking forward to Kane’s story as well as Grayson’s. I just wish we didn’t have to wait! Another 5+ star read. I'm very grateful to have been given an opportunity to read and review an advance copy of this book through NetGalley.

Luna Black is in the wrong place at the wrong time and witnesses a murder. Now she is on the run trying to stay alive. Someone comes to her rescue but can she trust him or has she gone from the frying pan into the fire. The book starts out with suspense and also has a romance. It was definitely an entertaining book and I look forward to the next book in the series. Thank you to net galley for an advanced readers copy.

The second book of what's shaping up to be my future favorite series

I could probably be heard screaming all the way to Iceland when I saw I'd received an ARC of this second book ! Cynthia Eden is an automatic purchase for me, and this book is no exception !

I loved the twisty plot with the drama teacher who witnesses a murder and finds herself on the run ... only to fall into the arms of a sexy hitman !!
And of course, a fake hitman with a fake wedding, but a romance that's both cute and sexy, and all that in New Orleans ?? I LOVE IT !!

In short, a suspenseful romance that I devoured too quickly ! For fans of suspenseful romances with twisted plots and all-consuming romances, I recommend it !

PS: THOSE LAST PAGES !! I need the book with Kane ><

The descriptions in this book are so great that I could see this book as I was reading it as if it was a show in front of me. There were times that I even wondered if Ronan was a good or bad guy. I fell in love with the characters which helped to make this a favorite book.

Hitman Bodyguard!!

Ronan is way more than he seems in this over the top suspenseful story.

The man in the fancy suit with the dark, rumbly voice had just taken out three attackers.

Luna needs a protector but she’s not sure if he’s a good guy or not. Sometimes you just gotta trust your gut.
I never get tired of this fantastic author. She always grabs me from start to finish. Intriguing character and a spicy romance. Everything a 5 Stars adventure should be and more.
