A story in the AMR Fan Fiction - Z’s Valentines Universe
Inspired by the world of ElSol in A Master’s Ring. Highly recommend everyone read AMR first. James Zefram Cochran and the Valentine twins are growing up and building a life as Oregon Ducks….. hoping to be almost normal college students. Normal... with the backing of the Brotherhood, the Cymry, nearly unlimited resources, a growing 'harem' of intelligent motivated women, a resort style ranch and a fast jet. But their enemies remain a deadly threat. (Follow up to Trippin with the Valentines)
He died at seventy-nine and woke at twenty, same body, same year: 2003, in Leuven, the whole thing still ahead of him. James knows what's coming: the crashes, the fortunes, the people he'll lose. This time he'll go slow, build quiet, keep his head. But a second life is still a life, and knowing the future doesn't make it hurt less when it arrives. Least of all when it's her.
He feeds on wanting. She takes him to Costco. Five weeks after Cora accidentally summoned a nine-hundred-year-old incubus with a candle, he wants one thing: a warehouse membership card with his name on it. What he doesn't expect is what a store full of people wanting things does to a creature who's spent nine centuries being wanted for darker reasons—or that a free sample from a woman named Deloris might undo him completely.
