In the City of Lights, two star-crossed lovers battle a fate that is destined to tear them apart again and again for eternity.
When Kate Mercier's parents die in a tragic car accident, she leaves her life--and memories--behind to live with her grandparents in Paris. For Kate, the only way to survive her pain is escaping into the world of books and Parisian art. Until she meets Vincent.
Mysterious, charming, and devastatingly handsome, Vincent threatens to melt the ice around Kate's guarded heart with just his smile. As she begins to fall in love with Vincent, Kate discovers that he's a revenant--an undead being whose fate forces him to sacrifice himself over and over again to save the lives of others. Vincent and those like him are bound in a centuries-old war against a group of evil revenants who exist only to murder and betray. Kate soon realizes that if she follows her heart, she may never be safe again.
My Review: This book was AMAZING! For the longest time I wanted to read this book, but could never decide if it was worth buying. Eventually I gave in and bought the book. I'm glad I did! This book grabbed me quickly and I couldn't stop until I finished. I love the idea of Revenants, it's something different which I'm always looking for. Kate and Vincent are a perfect couple. I hope the next book can suck me in just as the first one did!!
