In the newest Argeneau novel from New York Times bestselling author Lynsay Sands, an immortal barely escapes a raging fire only to kindle a sizzling passion with his potential life mate.
Mac Argeneau knows all too well: immortals can be killed. Not with holy water or silver crosses, but by decapitation or being set on fire. So when Macâs house bursts into flamesâwith him insideâheâs sure it was no accident. But who would want to kill a scientist specializing in hematology? There is a silver lining: a blonde investigator appears on the scene and sparks feelings in him that have been dormant for centuries.
CJ Cummings is in town on a special investigation, but sheâs been waylaid by the local police to deal with this arson case. The biggest mystery is how this sexy scientist with silvery blue eyes has emerged from a blazing inferno without a burn mark on him. Heâs clearly hiding something. Sure, sheâd love to see him without his lab coat, but sheâs got a job to doâdespite his insistence that he needs a bodyguard and...he wants her.
But when a second attempt on their lives puts CJ in harmâs way, itâs Mac who will do anything to safeguard the woman whoâs destined to be his life mate.
