Julian Reynolds is not human. That precious gift was taken from him long ago. Now he is more...much more...for he is 'vampire', whether he likes it or not. There was a time, centuries ago, when he could have rid himself of this accursed affliction. The love of one woman could have saved him but it was not to be. A force beyond his control destroyed that love ending all hope for his return to humanity...or did it. Circumstances were giving him another chance...for love...for the gift of humanity. Would he be able to protect her this time from the one who would rather see him destroyed completely than to accomplish his one wish in life...to end this curse that was forced upon him
