Love is a gift.  Passion is a curse.

In Alyson Noel’s most darkly seductive Immortals novel yet, Ever fights for control of her body, her soul—and the timeless true love she’s been chasing for centuries.

Ever is trying to help Haven transition into life as an immortal.  But with Haven drunk on her new powers and acting recklessly, she poses the ultimate threat—exposing their secret world to the outside.  As Ever struggles to keep the Immortals hidden, it only propels Haven closer to the enemy—Roman and his evil companions.

At the same time, Ever delves deeper into dark magick to free Damen from Roman’s power. But when her spell backfires, it binds her to the one guy who’s hell-bent on her destruction. Now there’s a strange, foreign pulse coursing through her, and no matter what she does, she can’t stop thinking about Roman—and longing for his touch.  As she struggles to resist the fiery attraction threatening to consume her, Roman is more than willing to take advantage of her weakened state…and Ever edges closer and closer to surrender.

Frantic to break the spell before its too late, Ever turns to Jude for help, risking everything she knows and loves to save herself—and her future with Damen …

Ah, time for my favourite weekly meme.  I love The Immortals series, and I'm really looking forward to this one.  From reading other blogs I think a lot of people are giving up on this series, but I love it.  This is not a case of me sticking with the series, it's a case of me excitedly counting down the days until the books comes out.  Cannot wait!

Let's talk about the cover art.  I can't wait until October for the paperback release, although I have to say I love the cover a lot, and I especially love the lettering here.  Thankfully I'm quite enamoured with the hardcover version too, so that'll keep me happy.
