TIME FOR ETERNITY
Desire and destiny collide in this novel — first in a stunning
new series from New York Times bestselling author Susan Squires. TEMPTED
by FATE Once, Frankie Suchet loved Henri Foucault—and it
cost her everything. For two centuries she has cursed the French duke who gave
her his blood and then disappeared forever. Today, this sexy vampire is a bartender
living in San Francisco. Now Frankie has been granted the chance to go back in
time… and kill the man who made her what she is. But becoming “Francoise” again
means losing all memory of the risk Henri poses to her future… and her heart. SEDUCED
by DANGER France, 1794. The Reign of Terror is in full
swing. From the first, Henri is an enigma, saving Francoise from an angry Parisian
mob. Drawn to his seductive vitality, Francoise discovers there is much more to
Henri than she once knew. His devotion to rescuing innocents from the guillotine
is his sole passion—until he encounters Francoise’s intoxicating blend of innocence
and experience. And, as their attraction explodes into dangerous desire, the only
way to save each other may be to sacrifice their timeless love.
When
modern Frankie merges with her 18th-century self, the resulting mix of innocence
and experience makes her even more fascinating to immortal Henri than the first
time around, while the wise future voice in Francoise's head allows her to discover
more of Henri's complexity and secrets. The heroine's dual nature is exquisitely
executed, and Squires's lush writing skillfully entwines the dramatic story of
an aristocratic smuggler's resistance to corrupt revolution with the romantic
tale of lovers drawn together across time. Publisher's Weekly,
Starred Review A romance for all romance lovers, the novel
eloquently combines time travel, vampirism and a bygone era into a compellling
and orginal tale. … Squires has created on of the mnost mysterious and appealing
vampires since Lestat. RT Book Reviews
