When Brandon Roland's parents kicked him out for being gay, he turned to prostitution to get by--something that almost cost him his life when he was attacked by strangers. Bran was saved by a vampire named Heath, and during their year together, Bran's life was good--but then Heath sent him packing for reasons unknown.

That was twelve years ago, and Bran's come a long way since then. He has an education, a job as a social worker at a vampire/human youth shelter, friends, and a tattoo he adds to annually to commemorate another year without the love of his life.

The trouble with being a very old vampire is that the older you are, the less you feel. Heath is over nine hundred--he was sure he'd never experience emotion again, but he never counted on Bran. When Heath accidentally stumbles back into Bran's life, it changes more than either man thought possible--and then history literally catches up with them and turns their lives inside out.
