About the book

Dr. Sophie O’Brian is a dedicated medical resident with her life carefully planned out—finish her training, marry her dependable fiancé Chase, and finally have the family she’s always wanted. But when a mysterious serial killer targets her, everything she thought she knew about herself shatters.

She is not who she thinks she is.

Sophie is the reincarnation of the lone survivor of ten sisters cursed by the Norse goddess Freya over 1,200 years ago. The curse gave them hypnotic power over men through their piercing blue eyes—but at a terrible price. Any man they love will die before their child is born, and they will die before the child’s second birthday. Doomed to repeat this cycle through endless lifetimes, the sisters have been hunted for centuries by those who resent their power.

Enter Marco—the immortal protector who has loved her through every lifetime and thought he had lost her forever long ago.

FBI agent Marco watched Sophie die 700 years ago. He has lived with the guilt of his failure for multiple lifetimes. He’s loved her endlessly, but the curse ensures she can never love him back. When an ancient enemy resurfaces, determined to end the bloodline once and for all, Marco must protect Sophie while revealing the impossible truth about who she really is.

But Sophie has been dreaming about Marco her entire life.

As danger closes in and Sophie discovers the truth about her heritage, she realizes something that could change everything: she’s been in love with Marco since before they ever met. If her love is real—if it transcends the curse—it might be the key to breaking the cycle that has enslaved them both for over a millennium.

In a race against time, Sophie must embrace her power, trust the immortal who has loved her across lifetimes, and face an enemy who will stop at nothing to see her dead.

Perfect for fans of paranormal romance, Norse mythology, and epic love stories that span centuries. The Undying weaves together medical drama, FBI thriller, and ancient magic in a tale of cursed love, immortal devotion, and the power of true love to break even the oldest of spells.
