Originally published
in the anthology,
OUT OF THIS WORLD,
08/01.
Acclaimed as one of the
masters of paranormal romance, Maggie Shayne enthralled
readers with her extraordinary trilogy about a race of
immortal witches. Now, she presents the story of an
immortal whose existence has centered solely on
vengeance and hatred-only to find a second chance at
love, redemption-and immortality.
Her name is Puabi—and
she's an Immortal High Witch whose past is littered with
dark secrets. Convinced she has eluded death for the
last time, she is shocked to find herself being rescued
by a mysterious stranger who fills her with a desire she
thought was lost forever...
His name is Matthew
Fairchild—and he is a millionaire tormented by guilt
over the tragic death of his wife. The last thing he
expected to encounter was a beautiful woman who
possessed an uncanny resemblance to the woman he loved
and lost. But Puabi is like no one he's ever met before.
Is it possible this enigmatic beauty can heal the bitter
wounds that have nearly cost him his heart?
Reviews
"This story is very
touching and the end was a little bit of a surprise for
me. I hadn't read IMMORTALITY in the
anthology, and with the current trend of publishing the
individual short stories, thought I would give this one
a shot. Great story!" -- Dark Cat,
