Brother and sister team Midnight and Aurora Pendragon have a successful airship business taking clients on trips to be photographed with their pet pterodactyl. The last thing they expect is to have one such trip hijacked by the dashing adventurer Voltaire Crevin and his right-hand man Trevilian Hawke. While his sister and Voltaire repeatedly lock horns, Midnight finds himself increasingly drawn to Trevilian. Finally, Voltaire explains they are trying to prevent a weapon of mass destruction from falling into the hands of a ruthless, secret organization, the S.O.R. With Midnight’s help, they take the airship down into an extinct volcano to find that not only does Atlantis still exist, but the weapon is in the hands of the few remaining Atlanteans. But if Voltaire had believed the S.O.R. were ruthless, it's nothing compared to that of the Atlanteans who seek to return to the surface and rule the world using their ultimate weapon: The Leviathan. Midnight’s feelings for Trevilian deepen as they seek a way to stop the Atlanteans and escape from Atlantis. Danger comes in many ways and takes many forms, each more deadly than the last. Can Midnight and Trevilian survive long enough to know whether love never dies?

Love Never Dies

“Of course. If that’s what you wish once you’re told we can get out of here. Now, eat.” Tresilian’s voice lowered in timbre and the deep, reverberating quality made Midnight shiver with an unknown delight.


“Very well.” To his surprise, the fish stock wasn’t as unpalatable as it had sounded. And, even better, it didn’t disagree with him, although when some full fish were brought in for Tresilian a few minutes later, Midnight couldn’t stomach the notion of eating one.


“I was never a fan of fish.” Midnight sighed. “Now it’s all I’m able to eat.”


“Never mind. Once you’re well enough to get around, we can return to the ship, and make sure she’s able to fly once more. Then we need to know what Voltaire’s found out about the weapon that was meant to be here.”
