Lynsay Sands does it again! I love the Argeneau Series. Yes, she has a formula, but I love that formula. And, I was sure I knew the mystery at the end, but I didn't - she surprised me again!

In this installment, Tybo and Valerian are on a stakeout, when they intervene between a woman (Sophie) and her would-be attacker. Tybo ends up asking Sophie out on a date to Valerian's wedding. Unfortunately for him, Sophie meets Alisdair, one of the MacKenzie/Nottes over from Scotland, at the wedding and Marguerite matches them up.

Sophie's parents died in a fire when she was about 10, and she was overall raised with the neighbor family, with which she works currently. Over her lifetime, her parents, a best friend, two fiances, and one "pre-engaged" boyfriend get killed and Sophie on some level thinks she's cursed.

Sophie and Alisdair start dating, and a number of things happen around her and him. They go through the standard "life mate"/"immortal" talk. During the drama, she gets to know Alisdair's family and they all try to figure out why so many people around her get killed. It was not the reason I thought :).

And now that I'm done with this book I have to wait maybe another *year* to read the next Argeneau book :( :( Keep them coming, Lynsay!

I received an advanced copy and am giving an honest review.
