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

“We need to move.” Tresilian rolled onto his hands and knees, then stood, grimacing as he stretched. Then he held out his hand, and Midnight took it, accepting the assistance to stand upright.


“Follow me. Stay close. And if you’re attacked, use your sword. If it’s between you and an adversary, I want it to be you.” Tresilian cupped Midnight’s face in his hands, then drew him in to a hard kiss.


In response, Midnight grabbed his lover’s biceps so tightly he was certain he’d leave bruises and, as they parted, breathing harshly, he issued his own warning.


“Don’t you darerisk your life for me, Tresilian Hawke. I can look after myself.”


Tresilian leaned his forehead against Midnight’s without moving his hands away.


“I’m glad to hear it. Midnight, I-I…”


For a second, Midnight held his breath, but the much-desired declaration still didn’t come


“I couldn’t bear for you to be hurt.” Tresilian eased back and looked directly into Midnight’s eyes.
