He vowed he’d come for her…
Murdered before he could wed Regin the Radiant, warlord Aidan the Fierce seeks his beloved through eternity, reborn again and again into new identities, yet with no memory of his past lives.
She awaits his return…
When Regin encounters Declan Chase, a brutal Celtic soldier, she recognizes her proud warlord reincarnated. But Declan takes her captive, intending retribution against all immortals – unaware that he belongs to their world.
To sate a desire more powerful than death…
Yet every reincarnation comes with a price, for Aidan is doomed to die when he remembers his past. To save herself from Declan’s torments, will Regin rekindle memories of the passion they once shared – even if it means once again losing the only man she could ever love?

This is the story of Regin the Radiant and Aidan the Fierce/Declan Chase. Regin meets Aidan when she was still very young and hadn’t even reached her immortality. Aidan is a berserker, who are mortals who have to earn their immortality by competing in battles in the name of Wōden. Unfortunately, Aidan is killed by vampires before he could earn his immortality, right after he seals his relationship with Regin. This happens three more times before he comes back as Declan Chase.
Declan Chase has had an extremely rough life and has more reason to hate immortals than anyone else. He walked in on some immortals torturing and eating his family while they were still alive. They also started in on Declan too. He is saved by his future father figure, who also is the leader of a secret organization, who is bent on killing all immortals. Declan joins and becomes one the ring leaders.
Chase and Regin have more to overcome than any of the previous couples in the IAD series. Chase has killed and tortured many of Regin’s friends and allies. Chase has every reason to despise immortals. Watching how they come through this is truly amazing and not without complication. So far in the series, pretty much everyone has had difficulties, but nobody has the mountains to climb that these two have.
We meet Brandr, who is another berserker and Aidan’s best friend. He won his immortality and vowed to keep Regin safe for Aidan. Thad, who is seventeen-years-old and is just learning that he is part of the Lore. He didn’t even know it existed until he woke up at the compound. Also, no one know what he is. They do learn he is a halfling, but of what? Natalya, a dark fae, who shares a cell with Regin and Thad.
Let’s not forget Lothaire, who has a much larger part in this book that I expected the first time I read it. It sets him up to be the hero of the next book. Yes, you read that right. The enemy of old is the hero of the next Immortals After Dark book. Even after having some time in his POV and lots of page time with him, you still have no idea what is going on with him.
Nix is still up to her old games. She has a bat named Bertil. She has some great “Up” references in this book, “Squirrel”. She will always be my favorite character in this series.

Robert Petkoff does another great job with this book. I can’t say enough about his ability to narrate this series. He does such a great job with both males and females. There are many different accents that he nails as well. He pulls off the coldness of Lothaire and the fun loving Regin. He really hits the bull’s eye with La Dorada and her weird screaming
