He’s 29. He Has Been 29 for Centuries.
There are a few things you should know about him.
1. He is 29.
And he has been 29 for several centuries.
Not because he is hiding among ordinary humans.
Because he lives in a world where no one grows old.
2. His world is immortal.
Most stories about immortals begin with an immortal man hiding inside a mortal world—watching generations pass, pretending to be ordinary.
This one is different.
She is the one who enters an immortal world.
Everyone there has already been tested by time. They do not age. They do not die.
And somehow, the one person whose place in that world is uncertain is her.
Which makes meeting him a little more complicated than meeting a handsome stranger.
Because he isn't a stranger.
Not to him, anyway.
3. He has had a very long life.
And he has made very good use of it.
He helped build the immortal world as it exists today.
He has been a judge.
A police officer.
A not-very-successful football player.
A wildly successful pop star.
Architecture is one of his greatest talents, and these days he runs a business empire built around it.
He also happens to own interests in entertainment—including a football club and a television network.
So yes.
He's rich.
But that's probably the least interesting thing about him.
He has lived too long to simply sit around being immortal.
He has always wanted to do something with it.
4. He used to be a player.
Before her, anyway.
He was the kind of man who never had trouble finding someone to fall into bed with—and never had trouble walking away afterward.
He had been hurt badly enough to make him stop believing in lasting relationships.
Badly enough that, for a while, he almost believed even an immortal body could die.
So he stopped letting anyone get too close.
Until she came back into his life.
5. He has known her for almost half her life.
This is the part that makes things complicated.
When she was a toddler, she once stood in his garden screaming and destroying everything within reach.
When she was a teenager, she carved her name into a tree on his property.
She doesn't remember any of it.
Because those moments happened in her dreams.
They were dreams to her.
They were real life to him.
And when they finally meet in the same reality, she looks at him and sees a stranger.
He knows exactly who she is.
He knows exactly how long he has been waiting.
And he has to pretend they've just met.
And that is the problem with Dylan.
He isn't an immortal man waiting for a mortal woman to discover his secret.
She is the stranger in his world.
And he is the man who remembers everything.
Maybe that's why he looks at her the way he does.
Maybe that's why he knows things he shouldn't know.
Maybe that's why he seems far too comfortable around a woman who insists they've never met.
And maybe—
just maybe—
the man who spent centuries refusing to fall in love has finally met the one person he can't walk away from.
