Elena Deveraux hunts vampires for a living. In Nalini Singh’s Guild Hunter world, vampires are made by angels, and when those vampires break the terms of their service, it is hunters like Elena who bring them back. She is tough, skilled, and used to operating in a world of powerful immortal beings.
Her life changes when the Archangel Raphael hires her for a job that puts her directly in the middle of archangel politics. Their relationship starts as a power struggle between a mortal woman and one of the most powerful beings alive, and it grows into a genuine partnership across the series. Elena’s humanity is what makes her stand out in a world full of ancient, powerful creatures.
Singh writes Elena as someone who does not back down, even when she is outmatched. The character’s growth from mortal hunter to something more is tracked across the full length of the series, and her story with Raphael is one of the most popular ongoing romances in paranormal fiction.
