Knight's Absolution

(Knights of Hell, #5)

by Sherilee Gray

Loyal and deadly, Gunner has fought tirelessly alongside his brothers in the war between Heaven and Hell for the one reward he craves: a beloved mate of his own. But darkness snatched her away. Now she haunts his dreams, and his longing for a female lost to him forever is tormenting him to the edge of sanity.

Luna risked everything to help the brutal warrior who should be her enemy — and lost. Now trapped in a cell and punished relentlessly for her betrayal, her wish for death is bested only by an intense desire for the man she cannot have. When he finds and rescues her, it awakens a part of her she never knew existed.

But the monster who held her captive will stop at nothing to get Luna and her powers back, and those she loves most are in terrible danger...

****(4) out of 5 

For months, Gunner wakes every day with screams of agony echoing through his dreams, with no idea why.  It isn't until later that he learns it is Luna whose pain he has been feeling.  She isn't dead as he had feared, just trapped and hidden in every way possible.  Amazingly, he finally makes his way to her, only to find her mostly dead.  He slowly nurses her back to health, but they face many challenges ahead of them.  Not the least of which is having to wade through all the luggage from her horrific past.  Their lack of communication and mutual feelings of unworthiness don't help matters any either.  Just as they finally seem to be forging a meaningful relationship, Luna is stolen from Gunner again, with no clue where she's been taken.  Luckily, although there is some angst to wade through, she isn't in quite as much danger as feared. 

Gunner and Luna's tale is main plotline of this book, but it is far from the only one.  There are other couples and individuals who are revealed in brief snippets of story that hint at much to come in the future.  And, of course, there are glimpses of couples who featured predominantly in prior volumes.  Apparently, there is one last volume to be had in the series, and I for one can hardly wait for the culmination of all these tales; I'm hopeful that it wraps up many of the outstanding plot points, and in a way that is more uplifting than has been much of the overarching storyline here.
