The secondary and supporting characters include Hannah’s boss and Grant’s love Rio Gibson Elijah’s business partners Grant Twombley, and Sebastian Shark Sebasitan’s executive assistant Carmen Hannah’s parents, her sisters, and several security personnel.ĮLIJAH’S WHIM is a story of secrets, betrayal, vengeance and obsession. The $ex scenes are intimate and intense but I dislike the use of a certain four-letter word, used regularly throughout the story. Hannah is desperate to keep her distance but demons from the past continue to push at our heroine’s sense of safety and self-worth, and Elijah is the perfect port in the proverbial storm that is coming their way. The relationship between Hannah and Elijah is a frenemies to lovers, a mutual friends relationship in which Hannah battles between head and heart knowing Elijah’s reputation precedes their time together. When our heroine is targeted by an unknown threat, Elijah goes into alpha mode, in an effort to ensure Hannah’s safety but the threat may be coming from two different directions.

Staying with Elijah Banks pushes our couple closer together but Hannah is no submissive, and she refuses to bow or bend for any man, Elijah Banks doesn’t do relationships, and in this, his past refuses to let go. Hannah Farley’s past is mired in darkness, and in this, our heroine struggles to forgive and forget but Hannah’s past has resurfaced, and in this Elijah is determined to protect the woman with whom he is falling in love. What ensues is the building romance and relationship between Hannah and Elijah, and the potential fall-out as every measure of protection and safety Elijah put into place, has been over ridden or destroyed by demons from the past. With the partners, and their significant others and friends, targeted by any number of desperate individuals, Elijah Banks has set into motion a plan to protect our story line heroine and her family but Elijah’s past refuses to let go, and Hannah’s past may be coming for vengeance.


Elijah Banks is the third member of a business triangle co-owned with Grant Twombley and Sebastian Shark. Told from dual first person perspectives (Hannah and Elijah) ELIJAH’S WHIM picks up several months after the events of Grant’s Blaze (Shark’s Edge 6). ELIJAH’S WHIM can be read as a stand alone without any difficulty but I recommend reading the series in order for backstory and history. This is caterer/chef Hannah Farley, and billionaire businessman / security specialist Elijah Banks’ story line. ELIJAH’S WHIM by Victoria Blue is the seventh instalment in the contemporary, adult SHARK’S EDGE erotic, romantic suspense series, and the first instalment in Hannah and Elijah’s story.
