When the unthinkable happens and Vincent is torn away in a moment of devastating betrayal, our heroine refuses to accept a world without him—even when everyone else has given up hope. Determined to save the immortal love she's fought lifetimes to find, she'll risk everything, venture into dangerous territory, and challenge the very rules of their world to bring him back. But with a ruthless enemy bent on conquering France's immortal underworld, time is running out, and the stakes have never been higher. This is a heart-wrenching, action-packed story about the lengths we'll go to for the people we love—and the power of never accepting defeat when it comes to our soulmates.

Dark, haunting alternative rock and gothic pop for forbidden love defying death itself. Moody synths, ethereal vocals, and intense emotional crescendos. Think Evanescence, The Pretty Reckless, and Halestorm—raw desperation meets supernatural darkness.
