In her most compelling novel yet, bestselling author Emma Holly takes readers on a breathtaking journey from the twentieth century to the Middle Ages, where a woman must help a hardened warrior face his most formidable enemy...
For years, mercenary captain Christian Durand has done everything he can to protect his men from the abuses of his power-hungry father. When a beautiful ghost appears to offer comfort, he assumes the strain has finally pushed him over the edge. The specter claims she's his friend from another life--a tale the cynical soldier finds difficult to believe. All he knows for certain is that she tugs at both his heart and desires.
Grace Gladwell has her own experience with abusive fathers. Thanks to an accident involving her own, one moment she is in America in 1950, the next, she's in 1460 in Switzerland, trying to convince a medieval soldier that she's neither a figment of his imagination nor an imp from hell. Grace's life has never let her have a friend before, yet she wants so much more from Christian.
These would be challenges enough without vampire queen Nim Wei setting her immortal sights on Christian. When she threatens to help his father destroy them all, Christian must choose between his darker urges and a powerful love that spans centuries...
