But her immortality feels like a curse whenever she's around Max, the first man to awaken her senses since the loss of her husband. How can she explain to him that while she looks thirty, she's actually a hundred years older? Or that her grieving heart could not bear to fall in love with another mortal, only to watch him age and die? Yet something draws Kristina to Max over and over again, something that is starting to feel like fate . . .
Tonight and Always is the richly detailed and emotionally satisfying closing chapter to #1 New York Times- and USA Today-bestselling author Linda Lael Miller's Black Rose Chronicles quartet.
