I just finished reading this trilogy.  I think the second and third installments are better.  The majority of Eternal Eden focuses on developing the romance between Brynn and William.  Brynn is new at a college in Oregon.  She is a loner with low self-esteem and low self-confidence.  She meets William, who has actually been searching for her for a couple of centuries, and refuses to believe that a nice, attractive man would be interested in her.  I don't consider Brynn the strong selling point of this story. William, as well as the introduction of the immortal life, makes this more compelling to read.  Nicole Williams has established a great setting with the immortal life and develops a great antagonist through John Townsend, a powerful immortal who has decided to claim Brynn as his own.  The suspense kicks up near the end of the story, and although it starts out a little slow, I would highly recommend this series.
