Honor of a Hunter
About
A romantic suspense novel about a department-store heiress being stalked, the tech-specialist first love she turns to for help, and the disturbing discovery that the danger may be coming from inside her own world.
Someone is stalking her.
And she can't show any signs of weakness.
Or she'll lose everything.
Department-store heiress Faith Byrne has a problem she can't afford to make public.
Someone is stalking her.
As the threat escalates, Faith needs someone who can investigate without exposing the vulnerability she's desperate to hide. There's only one man she trusts enough to handle the problem discreetly.
Unfortunately, he's also the man who once had her heart.
Seeker Noah Kingsley is a tech specialist accustomed to solving problems by following the evidence—and the rules. When Faith asks for his help, he quickly discovers something deeply troubling.
The stalking is an inside job.
Someone close enough to Faith to know her movements is watching her. And as the stalker's obsession grows increasingly dangerous, Noah realizes that playing by the rules may no longer be enough to keep Faith safe.
The Boy Scout is going to have to break a few of them.
Thrown together again, Faith and Noah must confront more than the dangerous game being played around them. The first love they left behind hasn't been forgotten, and every new threat forces them to rely more heavily on the trust that once existed between them.
But their stalker always seems ready for the next move.
To survive, Noah and Faith must discover who's watching her before a deadly game of cat and mouse reaches its final move.

Praise for this book
What sets this author apart from many in the romantic suspense category is her skill in developing the setting as a prime mover in the plot. Readers will appreciate the research Kurtz puts into the locations when writing a novel. The fast-paced narrative and creative approach to suspense coupled with strong writing made this a pleasure. Though it is #6 in a series, this novel works well as a stand-alone.
So enjoyed the series. Would like much more of if!
