"No one, she thought, had ever understood the nature of love...how love went beyond flutters in the heart, pining and yearning, or even beyond hatred and loathing. Love runs blood deep; permanent, inescapable." Tabitha never believed that the hardcore rock artist who haunted her dreams would actually feel the same powerful connection to her. Driven to him by an irreconcilable force, Tabitha finds herself in the embrace of a man who is both her soul mate and her spiritual opposite. When their frustrations toward sex, commitment, and monogamy mount to a tempestuous climax, both must make a decision about what they are willing to sacrifice in devotion to the other. Requiem for the Fallen is an experiment in the boundaries of love. It is a tale of choices, redemption, and hope in a power that can change even the most damaged of hearts. *Recommended for Adults and Mature Teens, as it contains some language and scenes of sensuality.
