Part of Argeneau, book 2
First published 2004
Rachel Garrett works the night shift at the morgue, desperate to transfer to days. When she saves vampire Etienne Argeneau's life, she thinks her biggest problem is still her job schedule. Then Etienne makes a choice that changes everything. He can only turn one human in his three centuries of existence, and most vampires save this power for their destined mate. But Rachel saved him, so he saves her the only way he can. He makes her immortal. Rachel wakes up naked in an unfamiliar place, confused and disoriented. Her body feels different. Everything seems strange until she sees Etienne emerging from his coffin, his silver eyes fixed on her. Now Rachel must navigate her new immortal existence while figuring out her connection to the vampire who transformed her. Etienne faces his own uncertainty about whether he chose the right woman for his one chance at creating a life mate. Their forced proximity reveals an attraction neither expected, but Rachel must decide if she can accept this new life and the man who gave it to her.
