De: Elizabeth Rose

Narrado por: Kevin E Green

Immortality isn’t always a blessing...sometimes, it’s a curse!

An old sorcerer is how everyone knows him, but Orrick Pendragon has only chosen to shape-shift into the image an old man because of his painful past. When he stole the Eternal Flame more than 100 years ago, he had no idea of the consequences of his action. Being immortal and also married, he had to watch as his loving wife grew old and died while he stayed young and continued to live forever. Heartbroken, he swore he would never fall in love again. But when Lady Hope appears at his tower door seeking his assistance to find the Eternal Flame, he's intrigued and strangely attracted to her. Against his better judgment, he finds himself shape-shifting back into his young and handsome form of Sir Rick.

Lady Hope Threston arrives at Blake Castle as Lord Corbett's ward. However, it is only a ploy on her part to get what she wants. She's been betrothed to Lord Irwin, a blackhearted, greedy man. In order to convince him to break the betrothal, she agrees to help him find the Eternal Flame. However, she needs the assistance of the old sorcerer to do it. Lord Irwin wants to be powerful, invincible, and immortal, but all she wants is to be free. Then she meets the handsome Sir Rick, and magically, everything changes.

Can an immortal man who is destined to live forever find love again with a mortal woman who is bound to die?

Immortality, blessing or curse

Orrick has been the Keeper of the Flame for so long that he now wishes for death. Of course, a beautiful woman can change all that but not without mischief, mayhem and a little magic. It wouldn’t be right if we didn’t come across a few familiar characters which is why I enjoy these books so much.

Fantastic!

Elizabeth can spin a tale that has pure magic! This is no exception! I wanted to know what was going to happen with each page.
Kevin is a wonderful narrator! He puts a lot of emotions in the characters.

Excitement galore for Lady Hope

absolutely loved it. A unique story with a lineup of complex characters. Romance and intrigue at it's best

good storyline

the only thing that I think would improve this book would be if the voices we're better. The female voices just don't tend to go that well with their emotions.
