Eternity
England, Massachusetts Colony and Maine - 1680's and 1998

Raven St. James had always known she was a Witch, but it wasn’t until she and her mother were hanged for Witchery that Raven found out the truth: she is actually an immortal High Witch. Having been tried and hanged as a Witch makes staying in her small English village a bad idea, so Raven heads to the New World for a new start. During the voyage, she once again encounters Duncan Wallace. They first met on the day she was hanged, when the young priest-in-training tried to stop his mentor from murdering Raven, and on the voyage, she uses her magick to save him from illness. There has been a connection between Raven and Duncan from the first moment their eyes meet but, as an immortal High Witch, Raven knows that nothing can come of it.

When Raven meets up with Duncan a few years later, the connection is just as strong, but also, just as forbidden. Raven has learned the most important rule a Witch lives by: trust no one, not even the man she loves. It’s for his own safety that Raven doesn’t tell Duncan the truth about herself, but with tensions running high in her town, accusations are sure to follow.

Fate has much in store for Raven and Duncan and a love that will live for Eternity. It’s often difficult to review a book without giving away too much of the story; even more so in a story like this, which spans three hundred years. In the beginning, Raven is a naive young woman, but by the time we reach present day, she’s a seasoned fighter, well-versed in her powers. The bond between Raven and Duncan is strong in both time periods, yet, because of the circumstances, not as easy to deal with in the present.

There are really only two secondary characters who play a major part in the story; one the villain, and the other, another High Witch, Arianna, whose story is told next.

Infinity
Stonehaven Village, the Highlands of Scotland - 1511 and 1999

Nicodemus Lachlan has always known that Arianna Sinclair was different -- like him. An immortal High Witch, Nicodemus has lived for over seven hundred years, and knows that one day he will have to tell Arianna the truth about herself. It has been five years since he has been to Stonehaven, and in that time Arianna will have grown from the child he was when he last saw her. But the changes in Arianna surprise him. Now a young woman of seventeen, Arianna is haunted by the loss of her sister and is spending time with the outcasts known as The Crones. To so openly embrace being a Witch is not a good thing in these times, and with Arianna unaware of the complete truth of what she is, Nicodemus is determined to protect her at all costs.

Arianna has always felt a strong connection to Nicodemus, but now as an adult, she feels not only that, but recognizes another, stronger, pull; he is meant to be hers. Though she often sees some strong emotion in Nicodemus’s eyes, he warns Arianna that he will not love her. But not even time itself can deny a love as strong as hers.

Some loves are meant to last a lifetime -- others for Infinity. The young Arianna is a headstrong girl who doesn’t always appreciate the consequences of her actions and is still grieving and bearing the guilt of her sister’s death. Nicodemus also still mourns the death of his wife and children seven hundred years earlier -- which causes him to guard his heart from ever being hurt again. Of course, in so many years, Nicodemus has made a few enemies, and he’ll have to protect Arianna not just from herself, but from those who hunt him, too.

The first two stories of the Immortal Witches series, Eternity and Infinity are re-released in ETERNAL LOVE. Both stories are exciting, emotional paranormal tales with two very strong couples who prove that some connections are so strong they can only lead to ETERNAL LOVE.
