Alienated by everything that sets him apart, Aidan McBrien suffers in silence.He is the most powerful Immortal of his generation, but he chooses to live behind a lie to protect himself, even from those he loves. They can never know how much he struggles just to get through each day, overwhelmed by the pain and loss of everyone around him. As he fights a constant battle to control the gifts that threaten to push him over the edge, he dreads the day his world will look to him to fulfill a prophecy that he doesn't even believe in. As Aidan's equal, Allie Carmichael suffers the same isolation, only in complete ignorance of her true nature. She doesn't yet understand that it is her power that sends others reeling from her touch. When she meets Gavin, Allie sees a tiny glimmer of the life she wants to live, but her instincts tell her it will never work. Allie and Aidan have led parallel lives on opposite ends of the earth, but their paths are about to converge. With others making decisions for them, will they ever gain the knowledge they need to truly understand the immeasurable power they posses, or the prophecy that might not be about Aidan after all?
