I wish there was only today, just right now, and no forever.
It seems fitting that I fell in love in Paris, the most beautiful city in the world. And if I pretend, I can almost believe that my life is normal and everyone I care about is safe.
But as long as I'm with Vincent, "normal" doesn't exist. Gorgeous, charming, and witty, he's everything you could ask for in a boyfriend-but his destiny is so much more.
Even more terrifying than his destiny are his dangerous enemies, enemies who will kill for immortality. How are Vincent and I supposed to be together forever if we're always in danger?
I know I'll do whatever it takes-even if it means lying to the people I love-to fight against a fate that is trying to tear us apart.
