Immortal Desire

by Linda Lee Talbert

Discover the forbidden realm of vampire eroticism and eternal desire At the court of Eleanor of Aquitaine in 1170, Apollainaire Francois Villon ravages Constance de Musset. Robbed of the promise of human love, the fledgling vampire engages in a battle of wills with Apollainaire-spanning seven centuries. Throughout the centuries she meets Michelangelo, Mozart, Beethoven, and Mary Shelley. The London publication of her novel, Confessions of a Lady Vampire, brings Constance literary fame and the friendships of Oscar Wilde, Sarah Bernhardt, and Mark Twain. Will an ill-fated love affair with Bram Stoker reveal her centuries-old pursuit of mortal love has been in vain? Deprived of her mortality, can Constance accept and embrace Apollainaire's longing for eternal love? www.lindaleetalbert.com
