  At the moment i am reading shadowland by:Alyson Noel
I am on the third book of the series "the immortals" and right now the two main characters Damen and Ever are taking care of two twins brought over from sumerland. Summerland is a place where immortals can come to practice magick or to relax. The twins lost their "magick" and now they can't get back to summerland on their own. Damen and Ever are have taken them into there home and are caring for them. But now the evil character Roman who's "true love" Drina has been killed (by Ever) has stopped Damen and Ever from ever exchanged DNA again, well until they can reverse the curse. While reading this series i have always connected a lot with Ever.I can't make personally or real life connections to how she feels but someone i am always drawn to her section of the story. Damen is her life patner and she cant touch him for etenity. She misses the crease in his neck the hardness of his stomach the touch of his hand clasped around her own. She feels it is her fault that this happened, while Damen feels it's his own. He  thinks karma is out to get him, because he thinks he has wasted his powers and now it has come back to haunt him. Ever however thinks this entire situaton should be blamed on her, everything that happened is because of her. Her obsession with getting him better... her selfishness. I think that Ever blames herslef for many things in her life and some she should. But many things she blams herslef for are not her fault at all. Its hard to relate to Ever because her anxiety makes her almost crazy so i dont think i can fully connect to her as a person. But i understand why she blames herself for everything... when she lived in Oregon her parents died mostly because of her. I think now whenever something bad happens she automatically takes the blame. Even people around her dying that never really knew her like evangeline. While Ever thinks this Damen thinks something else. And even though they are true life partners there opinions differ so often. I have to wait and see what happens to understand there point of view completeIy. I think this is a great series and i cant wait to read the next one and figure out the end of the story!
