不朽永恆藍月不朽永恆藍月

《永恆》

一場可怕的車禍奪走了艾娃的幸福生活,她失去了家人以及歡樂往昔的一切。獨自來到陽光明媚的加州,艾娃意外發現自己擁有了神奇的超能力:她能看見別人的氣場,聽到別人的思想,通過觸摸了解別人的一切。
英俊迷人的轉校生達蒙突然出現,讓艾娃的生活陷入危險的旋渦:好朋友離奇失蹤,邪惡銜尾蛇的印記若隱若現,而每當達蒙接近艾娃時,都會引起神秘勢力對艾娃的追殺,剛剛萌芽的愛情遭遇詛咒,艾娃不僅要保護好自己,還想揭開達蒙的身世之謎……

《藍月》

艾娃跟隨達蒙學習作為永生者的樣新領,逐漸適應了那個黑暗誘人的世界。然而,當艾娃的超能力逐漸增強時,達蒙的超能力卻在不斷衰退,突如其來的疾病威脅著達蒙的健康、記憶,甚至生命。
艾娃不顧一切想拯救達蒙,在永生者的聖地,她知道了達蒙隱藏的痛苦往事,一份古老的筆記記載了一個關於時間的秘密:神秘的藍月之夜,時光可以倒流,艾娃必須在犧牲家人和拯救達蒙之間作出痛苦的抉擇…

《暗谷》

艾娃拯救了達蒙的生命,卻不幸陷入了羅曼編織的魔咒:她和達蒙再也不能親吻,不可碰觸彼此,否則,不朽者的肉體就將毀滅,而靈魂也會隨之墜入無盡暗谷——在那裡,沒有回憶,沒有愛情,只有永生永世的絕望。
羅曼聲稱自己手中握有消除魔咒的解藥,以此要挾艾娃離開達蒙。艾娃千方百計尋找開魔咒的契機,卻偶遇讓她心動的男孩裘德,她發現裘德擁有的《暗谷之書》,可能解答一切暗谷之謎,破解魔咒。為了解讀《暗谷之書》,艾娃頻繁地與裘德見面,裘德很快對艾娃表白,他的關懷備至讓艾娃難以抗拒,她對達蒙的真心遭遇了前所未有的艱難考驗……

《燃燒》

為了制服羅曼,拿到解藥,艾娃開始不顧一切修煉黑魔法,卻失手用符咒將自己與羅曼緊緊捆綁在一起。艾娃的內心如同燃起了黑暗的火焰,它像怪獸一樣掌控她的身體、思想,驅使艾娃一次又一次想投入羅曼的懷抱。
羅曼的召喚讓艾娃難以自拔,可她又不忍將真相告訴達蒙,只好再一次向裘德求助,而深愛她的裘德卻同樣面臨痛苦的抉擇:幫助心愛的人拿到解藥,她就將從此離開自己;而毀掉解藥,艾娃和達蒙燃燒了無數個世紀的愛就可以從此走向黑暗……

英文介紹

The Immortals series follows the story of 16-year-old Ever Bloom, a blond teenager who has a unique ability to hear psychic thoughts and see the auras of people around her. Originally a popular cheerleader with a boyfriend and best friend who lived in Oregon, she lived with her mother, father, 12-year-old sister Riley, and golden retriever named Buttercup. After a car accident that resulted in Ever losing her entire family, her life changes.

Evermore

After the deaths of her family, Ever moves to Laguna, California, to live with her father's twin sister--her Aunt Sabine. She was considered the outcast in her new school, but quickly found friends in Haven and Miles, two irregular students. This was where she noticed her new talents and found them controlling her life. By using her iPod and a hooded sweatshirt to shield herself from the outside world, she put herself into more isolation causing herself to be mocked by the more popular students in the school.
EvermoreEvermore
However upon arrival of new student Damen Auguste everything changed. She noticed how he was the only person who didn't have an aura and who's mind she couldn't read. He was tall and handsome and managed to make Ever feel special and safe whenever he was around. Unfortunately Damen didn't come alone. A friend from his past, Drina, made quick friends with Haven as she tried to get close to Damen and Ever, whose relationship was growing stronger by the day. Damen explained to Ever that he was immortal, as was she and he also had the same capabilities she possessed. Throughout the novels he teaches her to enhance and control these skills. He also explained how they each had past lives, along with rogue Immortal, Drina, who happened to be his ex-wife. It turned out that in all the past 400 years of Ever's life she had met Damen but had been killed by Drina before anything happened in their relationship. In the first book Ever manages to stop Drina, killing her by destroying her weakest Chakra (the only way to kill an immortal) and saving her relationship with Damen.

Blue Moon

Just as Ever is learning everything she can about her new abilities as an immortal, initiated into the dark, seductive world by her beloved Damen, something terrible is happening to him. As Ever's powers are increasing, Damen's are fading—stricken by a mysterious illness that threatens his memory, his identity, his life.
Blue MoonBlue Moon
Desperate to save him, Ever travels to the mystical dimension of Summerland, uncovering not only the secrets of Damen's past—the brutal, tortured history he hoped to keep hidden—but also an ancient text revealing the workings of time. With the approaching blue moon heralding her only window for travel, Ever is forced to decide between turning back the clock and saving her family from the accident that claimed them—or staying in the present and saving Damen, who grows weaker each day...

Shadowland

Ever and Damen have traveled through countless past lives—and fought off the world's darkest enemies—so they could be together forever. But just as their long-awaited destiny is finally within reach, a powerful curse falls upon Damen...one that could destroy everything. Now a single touch of their hands or a soft brush of their lips could mean sudden death—plunging Damen into a bleak afterlife in the Shadowland, an eternal abyss for lost souls. Desperate to break the curse and save Damen, Ever immerses herself in magick—and gets help from an unexpected source...Jude Knight.
ShadowlandShadowland
Although she and Jude have only just met, he feels startlingly familiar. Despite her fierce loyalty to Damen, Ever is drawn to Jude, a green-eyed golden boy with magical talents and a mysterious past. She's always believed Damen to be her soul mate and one true love—and she still believes it to be true. But as Damen pulls away to save them from the darkness inhabiting his soul, Ever's connection with Jude grows stronger—and tests her love for Damen like never before...

Dark Flame

In this eagerly awaited continuation of the bestselling Immortalsseries, Ever struggles to help her best friend Haven transition into life as an immortal—trying to keep her from doing anything that puts them at risk, while attempting to gain control over her enemy Roman, so she can finally obtain the antidote that will allow her and Damen to be together. But when the spell she casts backfires, resulting in a strange, foreign pulse that binds her to Roman instead, Ever turns to Jude and dark magick, desperately attempting to break free of the curse, and ultimately risking everything she knows and loves—including her beloved Damen.
Dark FlameDark Flame

Night Star

In the fifth book, Haven swears revenge of Ever for Roman's death and uses her powers to become ?the most popular girl in school. She tells Ever that Damen had lied to her about something in their past and that Roman had told her because he had documented everything of the Immortals' history. Ever discovers that during her slave life, Damen had took her away from her family, her friends and Jude without giving her a choice. Ever breaks up with Damen and tries to find who of Jude or Damen is the One. In the meantime, Damen reveals everything to Miles about the fact that they are Immortals. Miles however decides to remain Ever's friend and refuses to ever take the juice because he doesn't want to become Immortal. Ever soon realizes that Haven has become addicted to the Immortal juice but also that Roman never passed down the recipe before he died and that the Immortals he created are fighting themselves over what remains. She also realizes that the antidote can be recovered because it had stained Roman's shirt when he had been killed but Haven has the shirt.During a battle between Haven, Jude and Ever, Haven kills Ever by punching her weakest chakra but in the darkness of the Shadowland, she realizes that Damen was the One and overcomes her weakest chakra, allowing her to come back to life. Having made peace with Damen and with Jude about her choice, she decides to attack Haven. She stages a coup at school, causing Haven to loose her power before trying to prevent Haven from stealing her supply of juice. Havne then realizes the importance of the shirt and decides to destroy it. In Roman's house, Jude had tried to steal the shirt for Ever but had been caught by Haven who tries to force Ever to choose between the shirt or Jude. She refuses to choose but is later forced to kill Haven when she tries to kill Miles. The shirt is destroyed in the process but Jude and Miles are saved. Damen and Ever then realize that something is rotting in the Summerland but they don't know why, only that it's going to come after Ever.

作者問答

寫《不朽之心》的靈感與概念? 因為有過悲痛的心情,所以想寫出心靈的純潔和簡單。我在五個月內失去了三位我所愛的人。當時,連我的丈夫也得了白血病,我差點失去他(他現在已經痊癒了)。如此強大的悲傷和恐懼讓我想了很多關於生死課題,生命的有限與不朽,以及即使在我們所愛的人走了,仍然維繫住我們的連結。還有,為何我們不斷要保持外貌上的年輕?如果我們真的可以成為不朽者,會發生什麼?不朽會對我們自己、我們的親人,甚至社會帶來什麼影響?我從小就對超自然現象很著迷,艾芙和戴蒙的故事剛好讓我可以盡情發揮我的想像,探討這些主題。
聽說你寫《不朽之心》時,花了很多工夫研究? 沒錯!我讀了關於死亡經驗、通靈、死後生命……等任何你想得到的主題。我甚至還親身體驗催眠,探訪我的前世。我還參加心靈課程,非常有趣,讓我大開眼界!
《不朽之心》里的艾芙可以看見亡者和光輪,你希望自己有什麼超能力? 剛開始寫《不朽之心》的時候,我好羨慕艾芙有超能力。但後來我覺得這其實是個很大的心理壓力。只要碰到對方,就可以知道他一輩子的故事,還有他的想法,這樣實在不舒服。不過我還是很想看到別人的光輪!
《不朽之心》里的戴蒙完美到夢幻般的境界,讓人不愛都很難!當你寫戴蒙這個角色時,你心中有任何假想人選嗎?戴蒙的確是我心中的完美情人。聰明、有氣質、心胸寬大、充滿好奇心、勇於冒險、神秘,而且還燒得一手好菜!嗯,這樣說來,我的先生也很戴蒙!
大家老是把你和《暮光之城》的史蒂芬妮.梅爾比較,你有什麼看法? 我非常喜歡史蒂芬妮.梅爾和《暮光之城》。她是位傑出的作家,讓新世代的青少年又找回閱讀的樂趣。我相信所有的作者都樂於見到這種情形。比較是難免的,尤其我又挑了相同類型的小說來寫,所以我一點也不介意拿來比較。我只是盡力把我腦子裡的想像,完美呈現一個動人的故事。最重要的是,我希望我可以讓讀者盡情享受這趟書旅
你為什麼不寫吸血鬼或狼人,而是寫一個這麼不一樣的不朽者? 我不寫吸血鬼或狼人,是因為我想要我的角色可以更貼近現實生活。我自己曾經失去摯愛,再加上我又差點失去我的先生,那時候讓我覺得我的世界幾乎要崩裂。經歷過如此沉重的傷痛,我不斷思考生死的問題,究竟是什麼讓生與死如此涇渭分明?這讓我不得不開始深思自己有限的生命。所以我決定從一個正常人的角度去想,萬一我們成為不朽者,會面臨到什麼狀況?我覺得這樣比較貼近自身的經驗。
《不朽之心》會拍成電視劇或電影嗎?你心中的男女主角人選? 會的。我實在太幸運了。《不朽之心》才剛出沒多久,不但立刻登上《紐約時報》等重要書榜,Spring Creek 製片公司也買下電視影集的著作權,他們已經開始選角了。請大家期待。至於男女主角人選,我倒是沒有想過。但是徵選戴蒙這個角色的時候,我很樂意到場給點意見。
