“Amanda Bonilla knows how to keep you on the edge of your seat...she’s a must read.” –Amanda Carlson, author of the Jessica McClain urban fantasy series.
Fated to Hunt…
As the local hunter, and a ward of the Sentry, a secret organization dedicated to eradicating the forces of evil, Jacquelyn has been protecting the small town of McCall, Idaho for the past five years. The hours are horrible, the pay is nonexistent, she has to work with her jealous ex-boyfriend – and forget about quitting. She’s in for life.
Destined to See…
When a rugged drifter comes through town, Jacquelyn immediately knows what he is – an Empath who can read emotions and sense what others are thinking – even though it’s clear the handsome stranger has no idea what, or how powerful, he is…
A Town in Peril…
When people in McCall start turning up dead, viciously ripped to shreds as if by a wild animal, Jacquelyn knows better. Furies are loose in Idaho and hell-bent on exacting revenge. But against whom? And for what purpose? Jacquelyn has until the full moon to stop the Furies’ killing spree and save the people of McCall, figure out how to work with her ex – oh, and there’s a handsome stranger in town who’s in desperate need of some schooling…
Editor's Note
Complicated Urban Fantasy...
Bonilla’s “Sentry of Evil” series begins with “Vengeance Borne,” where the Sentry tasked with eradicating evil from a small midwest town has to deal not only with Furies trying to cause havoc, but an ex-boyfriend and a sexy new stranger who’s an empath. Bonilla’s dark urban fantasy works are always sexy, filled with perilous situations, and packed with intriguing world-building.

36 ratings14 reviews
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This book needs a sequel. It is actually only an 11 hour book, as it just starts over from the beginning.
While I don't like not having a satisfied ending without a sequel, I really enjoyed the story and narration. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I enjoyed the book, but had to give it 4 stars because I thought it was going to be twice as long. Unfortunately it started the same book over!
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5shame the recording is repeated, I didn't realise Chapters were missing although some parts were a little disjointed.
Great story, good characters and plot. Hope to hear more as they are written and recorded.
Hopefully Scribd fixes this recording.
Only 36/69 chapters before it repeats. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Disappointed , the same book twice in one BUNDLE? You need to look into that.
Was there supposed to be a second book?
I was waiting for the next run on it but nope same book again. - Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This recording is doubled up. It finishes complete, and then it starts again, complete. It’s confusing if you’re not paying attention, but mistakes happen. Outside of that, the story is amazing! The characters are fun, sassy, and quite a bit badassy!
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5A few chapters in the middle are all mixed up and one or two are even backwards. There are a couple missing or repeated one also. This really ought to be sorted fast!
The story line itself is predictable so not at all exciting, I would say average. I did manage to finish this book but personally I would not either reread it or recommend it to anyone. - Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Love the author's books but the first half of this book is messed up. Final 5 -6 hours are ok..looking forward to more audio books from her
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Chapter 18 is a repeat and the real chapter is missing
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Beware!!! Some chapters missing, others are repeated. If not for that, it would have been very good.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Have to admit never before have read this take on the supernatural. Characters are interesting and plots are different, vary from the perspective usually developed, enjoyed not being able to predict the next page.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Very good story. I loved it. The only reason it got 4 stars is because I'm very bored and tired of all these weak main characters.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Enjoyed the book need about 20 more in the series.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The book had several repeat chapters, it was hard to tell if I had missed something. Must be a weird error from Scribd or the recording and I was reading so soon after coming out. Very good book though ? plot was good and characters and fantasy elements were very enjoyable. I hope there's more of this series.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Thr book was fantastic. What drove me crazy were the tracks that were missing and replaced with earlier chapters. I'll never know what happened after Jacqueline got off work that first day Micca came to the coffee shop or what happen immediately following the family dinner where Finn first met Micca...
