She’s the reincarnation of the girl he once loved. And the only one who can kill him.

One hundred and fifty years ago, Matthew fell in love with the wrong girl. An Immortal Guardian assigned to protect a young woman in his small southern town, he was given one rule: stay away from her. As if it’s possible to help who we fall in love with. As punishment for his weakness, he was cursed to a life of solitude. His only escape is death, which can only be delivered by the soul who marked him so deeply, all those years ago… if he can find her. A soul who remembers nothing of the love they shared and lost.

For Hallie, loneliness isn’t a condition or a curse — it’s a survival skill. Now in college after years of struggle and abandonment, her world tilts on its axis again: a freak ice storm sends her van hurtling into a tree — and Hallie into the arms of a tall stranger whose embrace feels hauntingly familiar…

With a vengeful Guardian on their tail, she can’t fall for him. But in this coming of age tale that blends paranormal romance, historical mystery, and one cross-country road trip, Hallie will have to come to terms with her past, Matthew’s secret, and the fact that some lives are like true love… eternal.

ESCAPING FOREVER is book one in a full-length New Adult Paranormal Romance series. It contains sensual scenes of first love and is intended for mature readers.
