The Chronicles of Nightfire, Texas #14 "Immortal Heart"

The entire town of Nightfire has turned out for the celebration of the newly restored Alexas Mansion, and, as the majority of the guests mingle and enjoy the festivities, Ray Don finds himself backed into a corner of his own design, as both Dori and Jenny vie for his attention, unknowingly threatening to expose his secret dalliance between the two of them. Meanwhile, Valen Alexas, having just done the unthinkable to his closest mortal friend, must put aside his grief and play the host, unaware that as the night progresses, the implacable ghost of Clarenda Richardson is moving ever closer to her final act of vengeance against the vampire she holds accountable for her death and the death of her brother. Before the party ends, hearts will be broken in more ways than one, and a sudden, tragic event will forever mark the night in infamy.
