it takes to become a vampire.On the battlefields of the American
Revolution, Matthew de Clermont meets Marcus MacNeil, a young
surgeon from Massachusetts, during a moment of political awakening
when it seems that the world is on the brink of a brighter future.
When Matthew offers him a chance at immortality and a new life free
from the restraints of his puritanical upbringing, Marcus seizes
the opportunity to become a vampire. But his transformation is not
an easy one and the ancient traditions and responsibilities of the
de Clermont family clash with Marcus's deeply held beliefs in
liberty, equality, and brotherhood.Fast-forward to contemporary

Marcus has fallen for--is about to embark on her own journey to
immortality.Though the modernized version of the process at first
seems uncomplicated, the couple discovers that the challenges
facing a human who wishes to be a vampire are no less formidable
than they were in the eighteenth century. The shadows that Marcus
believed he'd escaped centuries ago may return to haunt them
both--forever.A passionate love story and a fascinating exploration
of the power of tradition and the possibilities not just for change
but for revolution, Time's Convertchannels the supernatural
world-building and slow-burning romance that made the All Souls
Trilogy instant bestsellers to illuminate a new and vital moment in
history, and a love affair that will bridge centuries.
