Immortal Treasures - Turner, Sj

. .

Résumé :
A story of old-world vampires and modern-day witches. An alliance destined for centuries between two natural enemies is brought together by powerful ancients for the best of all mankind. Of course, nothing ever runs that smoothly. The only witch that can mend the past and secure the future is afraid of magic.

When Clara Redfearn-a retired high priestess of the Eternal Flame Coven- purchases the contents of the old Stepney Castle, she has no idea what they will find. Though given the Castle's history, being occupied by the original Vampire Sovereign, Julien Laurent, and his family, the items should draw a curious crowd to her new antique store-Immortal Treasures.

Sorting through a box of vampire artifacts, Olivia Parker -Clara's granddaughter- unknowingly discovers an ancient Timekeeper Journal. While she is frightened by its magical pull, there's a part of her that can't seem to put it down.

As she cracks the spine on the ancient leather-bound tome and begins to read the first exquisitely written inscription -Julien Laurent SOV- every vampire named within its pages suddenly stops. Until today, time has been frozen within the cover while it waits patiently for its chosen interpreter- Olivia.

They've been waiting more than a century for her. The one witch who can unlock the secrets inside the journal and the only witch capable of activating the resurrection key.

What the vampires don't know yet is that Olivia Parker may possess the power, but she has no idea how to use it, nor does she care to learn.
