A brooding, immortal French artist finds himself caught in an impossible triangle of the heart—torn between loyalty to his best friend and an all-consuming love for the one woman who's made his endless afterlife feel worth living. When Jules, a revenant cursed to repeatedly sacrifice himself to save human lives, watches the woman of his dreams fall for his closest companion, he's forced to confront a question even his centuries of existence haven't prepared him for: some loves demand everything, but what does he owe to friendship? This is a swoon-worthy exploration of passion, devotion, and the agonizing choices we make when the heart wants what the heart wants—perfect for fans who crave emotional intensity alongside supernatural romance.
