For several centuries, the Kahill Sept of vampires have
lived in the little town of Clare Point. They are a close
group of vampires who know they have to keep their secret
from humans, as they've learned the hard way. Special Agent Fia Kahill works for the FBI and has moved
away from Clare Point. She now lives a quiet life in
Philadelphia. When a gruesome murder happens in her old
home town, she is called there to investigate even though
it is out of her jurisdiction. Upon arriving at the scene she meets a fellow FBI agent
named Special Agent Glen Duncan. Glen is a human,
investigating in Clare Point. He is bound to find out
their secrets if he looks too closely. Even worse, he
looks exactly like Ian, Fia's former lover who betrayed
and killed numerous vampires. Ian was human and therefore died hundreds of years ago,
but Fia can't help but remember him while talking to Glen.
How can she ignore her feelings for this attractive man?
Fia knows that humans are dangerous and will hunt down and
kill vampires if given the chance. She needs to keep her
distance and keep her feelings in control. The case that has brought Fia and Glen together is that of
Fia's cousin Bobby Kahill. Bobby was found beheaded and
burned in the post office of the town. The only way to
kill a vampire (in this book) is to behead them and then
burn their body so their soul can't reenter. Whoever
killed Bobby knows a lot about vampires to kill him in
this way. When one after another, vampires are killed by beheadings,
Fia realizes she has a very dangerous vampire slaying
serial killer on her hands. Will she be able to solve the
case before Glen does and learns the town's secrets? Will
Fia be able to resist Glen and concentrate on the case? ETERNAL is a vampire romance/CSI type story with a solid
mystery, sexy romance, and thrilling suspense. The
characters are plentiful and all important to the story. The ending is extremely intense and full of red herrings
that will make you wonder who the killer really is. I
thoroughly enjoyed ETERNAL and I look forward to more
books by V.K. Forrest. This is an excellent book and I
highly recommend it to paranormal and mystery fans.

SUMMARY
Centuries ago, the shipwrecked vampire clan known as the
Kahills came ashore on the sleepy Delaware peninsula of
Clare's Point. In Eternal, V.K. Forrest introduces readers
to the ravishing, undead Fia Kahill, an FBI agent, who's in
danger from a vampire slayer--and the one man she must
resist but can't... Eternal FBI agent Fia
Kahill has just learned her cousin Bobby McCathal is dead.
His body is found burned, and his head and hands are
missing--the unmistakable calling card of a vampire slayer.
When more vampires' corpses surface, Fia knows it's only a
matter of time before the killer catches up to her. But
that's not her only worry. She's been assigned to work with
FBI agent Glen Duncan who is the spitting image of Ian, the
man she once loved--and the man who betrayed her... Four
hundred years ago, Ian used his relationship with Fia to
infiltrate the clan and kill as many of them as he could.
Fia promised herself she would never make the mistake of
loving a human again. With the murders in Clare Point
escalating, Fia has no choice but to trust Glen even as her
promise is becoming more difficult to keep. Fia wants Glen
like no other man she's ever desired--and before she knows
what's happening, she is deeply immersed in a forbidden love
affair. But this time the consequences could be far graver
than Fia ever could have imagined. For a killer has her in
his sights as his next deadly victim...
