He's been dead for over a thousand years. She's just starting to live.
Ivar is a ninth-century Viking, cursed to roam modern-day London as a ghost, unseen, unheard, and utterly alone. Until one night, when he saves a young woman from an attack... and she sees him.
Astrid is a Danish exchange student who's spent her life being responsible. In London, she's determined to finally let go and live a little. Until a near-assault brings her face to face with the impossible.
A ghost who can touch her. A man no one else can see.
As their connection deepens, what starts as an unlikely bond turns into something far more dangerous: love. But loving Ivar comes at a cost. His invisibility isolates Astrid from the world, and the life she's only just begun to claim.
Ivar knows she deserves more than a half-life with him. Determined not to hold her back, he makes the ultimate decision: to let her go, even if it means leaving her forever.
But Astrid isn't ready to give him up. Will she be able to convince Ivar he is enough?
