Sophie Hawthorne considers herself an expert at goodbyes. In her two hundred years of life, she has lost nearly every person she's ever loved. While her new life in Paris promises a new start with her best friends and her brother, Sophie can't help but worry about the next time her heart gets broken.

When Eliza stumbles into her life, Sophie is left reeling by the cold-hearted American girl. However, after a drunken night out, Sophie discovers Eliza has been a vampire for thirteen years, and it's time to say goodbye to the human life she knew - and it's tearing her apart.

For the first time, Sophie's centuries of experience with heartache could do some good, if only Eliza would let her in. But if Eliza never faces her pain, her harsh words and cruel actions could drive Sophie away... and they both could lose the best thing that's ever happened to them.
