Father Time's son, Zeit Geist, must sacrifice a mortal's lifetime to the Fates each New Year's Eve. Last year-inexplicably, really-he made an 11:59 substitution. The Fates are pissed and they're after his mortal Hannah. With the year ending, he ought to figure out why he'd saved her-and why he keeps doing it.Following an unlucky year, Hannah Lyons needs a week's holiday in a lodge to unwind. What she gets is near-death experiences and a sexy immortal who can't avoid kissing her, but might have to kill her. After all, even Zeit can't hold back time indefinitely.
