Blurb:
Carly Anders is hearing voices in her head.
Another one of her kind is trying to contact her. She knows of the malevolent
freaks—others who are eternal like her and seek out the weak to inflict pain
upon. For years, Carly has held up huge protective walls to keep herself and
her secrets safe. Now, physically and mentally exhausted, Carly needs
protection and rest.
She accepts the invitation to visit an Internet friend who needs help appraising a collection of antique
photographs. The situation is not ideal,
but Carly hopes a male presence in her life will deter the determined suitor
who haunts her thoughts and dreams.
Daniel Tremont is not what Carly is expecting.
The former funeral director has a secret of
his own. Not only is he eternal like Carly, he is her creation from all those
years before—her abomination she thought she killed.
Daniel has been searching for Carly for years.
He knows she is the piece of his life that he has been missing for so long. Now
that he has found her, he has no intentions of letting her go.
Excerpt:
A flicker of life ignited in her
eyes. Her hands came up to his face, and to Daniel’s surprise, tears bubbled
from his own eyes. He was releasing the pain and fear he had absorbed from his
beloved.
“I’m so sorry, Daniel, so sorry,”
she murmured.
“There’s nothing to be sorry for, my
love. It’s over. It’s time to move forward now.”
“You don’t understand what I am,
Daniel.”
“I do understand, Carly. I am what
you are. See me for what I am.”
In his mind, he could see the moving
clockwork gears of her thoughts once again as she tried to process what he was
telling her to be true.
“Just accept it, and let’s move
forward.”
She drew his face to hers and her
lips parted beneath his. Time blurred and he drank in the essence of his Carly.
Her soft, barely covered curves molded themselves against his the hard planes
of his body. Her hands were under his t-shirt, her fingers stroking him.
If he pressed on, he knew she
wouldn’t refuse him. But in her vulnerable state, he wouldn’t let anything
progress further that night. Carly needed time to process everything that
happened. There was plenty of time to pursue a physical relationship. They
weren’t going any where…he hoped.
