What Addie doesn’t know is why Henry is the first person in 300 years who can remember her. So when she meets a boy who, impossibly, remembers her, she can’t walk away. She has affairs with both men and women, but she can never have a comfortable intimacy built over time-only the giddy rush of a first meeting, over and over again. She has spent 300 years living like a ghost, unable even to speak her own name.
Adeline didn’t want to belong to anyone now she is forgotten every time she slips out of sight. And so she made a deal: For freedom, and time, she will surrender her soul when she no longer wants to live. So desperate that she didn’t notice the sun going down. “Never pray to the gods that answer after dark.” Adeline tried to heed this warning, but she was desperate to escape a wedding she didn’t want and a life spent trapped in a small town. When you deal with the darkness, everything has a price.
