Raffaele Notte drags a half-clothed, confused woman from the sea near an island resort. When she whispers "Vampires," his immortal world shifts. The word should be impossible for her to know. Raffaele came to this tropical paradise to assist his cousin, but rogue vampires are now feeding on vacationers. Jess becomes their target, and Raffaele recognizes something deeper. She might be the life mate he has searched centuries to find. Jess never believed in vampires until she witnessed them firsthand. Now she must escape the island. Her mysterious rescuer offers protection and help. Raffaele affects her unlike any man before. His touch creates sensations she cannot explain or resist. When Jess learns Raffaele's true nature, she faces an impossible choice. She can return to her ordinary human existence or embrace an eternal future beside him. Forever means giving up everything familiar for love that transcends mortal boundaries.
