À propos de cet audio

In the newest Argeneau novel from New York Times best-selling author Lynsay Sands, an immortal barely escapes a raging fire only to kindle a sizzling passion with his potential life mate.

Mac Argeneau knows all too well: Immortals can be killed. Not with holy water or silver crosses, but by decapitation or being set on fire. So when Mac’s house bursts into flames - with him inside - he’s sure it was no accident. But who would want to kill a scientist specializing in hematology? There is a silver lining: A blonde investigator appears on the scene and sparks feelings in him that have been dormant for centuries.

CJ Cummings is in town on a special investigation, but she’s been waylaid by the local police to deal with this arson case. The biggest mystery is how this sexy scientist with silvery blue eyes has emerged from a blazing inferno without a burn mark on him. He’s clearly hiding something. Sure, she’d love to see him without his lab coat, but she’s got a job to do - despite his insistence that he needs a bodyguard and...he wants her.

But when a second attempt on their lives puts CJ in harm’s way, it’s Mac who will do anything to safeguard the woman who’s destined to be his life mate.

Any book with a chronically ill person who is (or will be, given the nature of Sands' immortals) cured by the end of the book is a very hard sell for me. For the most part, this book has all of the page-turning chemistry, humour, and action of any other Argeneaux novel. However, the Turn conversation was not well handled. With no real thought to CJ's concerns or giving her time to consider it, Mac reacts to her protests by putting the focus on him, on how sad he would be after she's dead and how worried he would be for her safety while she's alive. This completely brushed away any potential to explore CJ's feelings about a potential cure (as a chronically ill person myself, I can tell you it's a lot more complicated than that, part of CJ's identity and experiences hinges on the fact that she's ill) let alone her aversion to blood. I will admit that the book did a good job of not making CJ's illness feel like a bad/ugly part of her, but since that is partially predicated on knowing she will be cured once turned, I just can't give this book full points here. I really REALLY wish her illness had been handled a bit better. Hence my lukewarm rating on an otherwise unputdownable book.

Good, but...
