Shiloh Walker weaves strong characters, real romance and fantasy together constantly. There’s a reason her titles will span a full shelf at your local bookstore.
Earlier this month, the second book in her Veil series was released. We liked Veil of Shadows (read our review) even more than it’s predecessor Through the Veil (read our review). So, we’re super excited to bring you an interview... 
Sure, we like dark books.
We like drama. (Richelle Mead, I’m looking at you.)
We like books with evil villains.
With surprising heroines (Stacia Kane, your turn to be stared at.)
With strong heroines.
With awesome love stories possibly filled with alpha heroes. (Did we mention we liked Veil of Shadows and Sins of the Soul? Just checking.)
But you know, we also need some fairydust every now and then....
