As if life isn't painful enough, Ashlon Isaacs has recently lost her beloved daughter to cancer. During the funeral, Bowen McAnders watches from a distance. A centuries-old vampire, he has returned to Lloyd's Corner to claim a house he built when the country was still young. He's also searching for his kindred soul, a spirit he's followed, found, and tragically lost many times over the ages. Bowen believes he has found that spirit once again in Ashlon, who lives near his old house. There is a common bond - they both want to see it restored to its former grandeur. However, Bowen must tread carefully to win Ashlon's love and trust. After a rough divorce, the last thing Ashlon needs is a man and a relationship, but something special draws her to him. Together they face an adversary, a rival with his own designs for Ashlon and the willingness to kill anyone who gets in his way. A suspenseful blend of romance, mystery, and fantasy, Falling Shadows draws a vivid portrait of mortal loss and immortal love. Only as a united front can Bowen and Ashlon destroy the evil that's closing in around them.
