For someone who’s been around for over a hundred and forty years, immortal Elspeth Argeneau hasn’t done a whole lot of living. Now that she’s moved away from her controlling mother, she’s tracking down rogue vampires and enjoying some overdue freedom. A fling would be fun. A life mate can wait. Yet to Elspeth’s surprise, her landlady’s hot grandson checks both boxes.
Wyatt fell instantly in love with Elspeth four years ago. He’s stunned to run into her again, especially as she has no memory of him. Then again, there are a lot of things about Elspeth that don’t make sense, like the miraculous speed with which her wounds heal. And the chemistry that transforms every touch into an explosion of desire. But with mysterious “accidents” besieging Elspeth, the ex-Special Forces soldier appoints himself her bodyguard. But time is running out to uncover the truth about her enemies—and rediscover the man determined to love her for eternity.
I am not usually a fan of paranormal. However, I don't consider vampire (or immortal) books to be paranormal.
I know. I know. They are...but I still like them. So, work with me here and can we all just pretend that this title isn't paranormal? Thanks, I appreciate it.
Elspeth and Wyatt met years ago, but she doesn't remember him. Although, the reason for that is a lot deeper than a situation where a woman decides to ignore a bad date...as it was anything but a bad date. However, it was an issue with her mother, memories that can be changed, and a parent just not good at letting go as their child gets older.
I enjoyed that this title was about more than the paranormal, although that was a definite theme. I liked that Wyatt was accepting, but with questions about what was going on. I think anyone would have the same questions, and wonder the same things, and I thought his reaction was reasonable.
This series has been going on for a while, and there is some of the history of the characters at play, however if you have not read all of the books in the series, which I have not, you are still able to follow this book with no issue.
I enjoyed this title and I recommend it.
