Desmond Beckwith is not a happy man. A financial wizard with an international investment empire, he's also in love with his lifelong-but-straight friend Roger. At forty-five, in spite of a circle of supportive friends and an elegant New York townhouse full of antiques, he feels isolated and cut off from humankind.And with good reason. Desmond Beckwith is a two-hundred-fifty-year-old vampire. For nearly two centuries he has lived in New York, looking vainly for love and seeking to satisfy his twin thirsts for blood and sex in those places where men of his kind have always met to find release and solace.Into Desmond's sheltered, lonely world stumbles Tony Chapman, an unemployed museum curator, down on his luck and one step away from being out on the streets. Brutalized by the unforgiving nature of New York City, Tony is on the edge of despair when he meets this darkly handsome older man in the smoky dimness of a Greenwich Village bar. To their mutual astonishment, Tony proceeds to turn Desmond's protected little world on its head, and to unlock pieces of Desmond's past lives and loves that were deeply buried in Desmond's memory.

Although Desmond Beckwith is a financial wizard with an international investment empire, a circle of supportive friends, and an elegant New York town house, he feels isolated and cut off from humankind. With good reason: Desmond is a 250-year-old vampire. For two centuries he has lived in New York, looking vainly for love and seeking to satisfy his twin thirsts for the blood and sex of mortal men. Into Desmond's lonely life stumbles Tony Chapman, an unemployed museum curator, down on his luck and one step away from being out on the streets. Tony turns Desmond's protected little world on its head and unlocks pieces of Desmond's past lives and loves that were deeply buried in memory. Desmond may be immortal, but he is not inhuman, and he must find a way to come to grips with his eternal life that includes both his human lover and his acceptance of who - and what - he himself is.
