She runs from me at every turn... But I will always find her. I am Death but cannot be killed. I’m alive, but the flesh has rotted from my bones. This is the price I paid for invincibility. With that curse came eternal winter over all the lands and the bitter chill of life without the simple act of human touch … until Linora Beckett stumbled into my arms and didn’t die. I want her. But to have her, I must betray my queen, chase my temptress across the kingdom, and fend off those who would harm her. As if that wasn't impossible enough, I must woo her to my bed. His rotting corpse is a mirror of his soul… But our union could save all humankind. I am Life but I feel dead inside.
