He's not like other guys.



Liz has seen him around school. It's hard to miss Max—the tall, blond, blue-eyed senior stands out among all the other students at Roswell High. So why is he such a loner?



Max is in love with Liz. He loves the way her eyes light up when she laughs and the way her long, black hair moves when she turns her head. Most of all, he loves to imagine what it would be like to kiss her.



But he knows he can't get too close. He can't risk her discovering the truth about who he is—or what he is . . .



Because the truth could kill her.
