It's been seven years since Anna Derwent returned home. Seven years away from the father she loved. Seven years she won't get back. As an empath, she expects to be overwhelmed by the wave of emotions following her father's funeral but what she doesn't expect is to inherit, not only his gym, but also his business partner.
Derrick Corel has waited over one hundred years to find the love of his life, never expecting to find her in the form of a diminutive, copper-haired firecracker with a chip on her shoulder.
But Anna longs for a normal life, something he will never be able to provide. He has a past, she wants a future. Their only certainty is death.
