Mac Argeneau's house explodes into flames around him. The immortal scientist knows this was no accident. Someone wants him dead, and fire is one of the few things that can actually kill his kind. Decapitation works too, but arson seems to be the weapon of choice here. CJ Cummings arrives to investigate the blaze. The blonde detective can't figure out how this hematology expert walked out of an inferno without a single burn mark. Mac insists he needs protection and wants her as his bodyguard. CJ has her own case to work, but she's drawn to the mysterious scientist with silver blue eyes who clearly hides secrets. Mac feels something he hasn't experienced in centuries when he looks at her. A second attack puts CJ directly in danger. Now Mac must protect the woman he believes is his destined life mate while they hunt down whoever wants him eliminated.
