  From Award-winning author Natalie R. Murphy. It has been 5 years since the tragedy of losing her boyfriend to violence and the abduction of their infant daughter turned Mya Stevenson's life upside down. She along with her two best friends, Shantel and Toni, have relocated to the small, up-and-coming town of Jasperville, IL. Now the owner of Pages Bookstore and Cafe in the small downtown area, Mya has moved on with her life, with the exception of love.

However, when the charming Reese Stallworth, the owner of Dapper Gents barber shops, rescues her from a flat tire in a rainstorm, feelings that she had long since buried are awakened. But as their relationship blossoms, Shantel's detective boyfriend gets a curious bug in his police cap and re-opens Mya's baby abduction case. The shocking revelations he uncovers will totally rock Mya's world.

  Persephone: All my life, I've had questions, holes—gaps in my mind. Now, too much is clear. Everything I thought I knew about the world crumbles around me as a truth I can no longer deny takes its place with a violence that leaves me trembling. Reality distorts to make room for a fate I wish we didn't have to face. Grief is a burden that weighs heavy on my heart, but for them—for life—I will fight. Even if it takes my very last breath. Even if it costs the final beat of my ravaged heart.Hades: Sacrifice has always been the name of my game. But now that I must sacrifice her—them—I'm no longer certain I wish to save the realms. For once, I consider falling to the monster that myth has painted me. Instead, I find myself bound by a fate I can't begin to fight. I may be the God of the Underworld, but I am still a pawn in this game we play, bound by rules far more ancient than me. The cost is high. It grows every day she is away from me. Still, I search for a way to break the binds of the ancient deal I struck long ago. To bring her home, unharmed, from the Gods who keep her—a prisoner of a blood deal—in the dangerous realm of Olympus. But Persephone has a plan, my cunning little goddess. A plan to destroy those who sought to ruin us. It's the last chance to save the realms. If we fail . . .

  Little did Evan know his suicide attempt would not be a disappearing into a void but the beginning of a journey to repentance and faith. Long suffering from alcoholism and depression, college sophomore Evan Esco hoped to escape his pain by committing suicide. Evan hoped he would simply cease to be, but he did not count on the existence of God to foil his plans. Instead of wrath, God is now giving Evan the chance to repent—that is, the chance to return to the world above, turn from his sins, and place his faith in the Lord Jesus Christ. But if Evan is to learn what it means to repent, he must first travel through the realms of the Inferno—Hell—and speak with those condemned. There, by interviewing shades and demons, some you may find familiar, Evan will learn why he must turn from his sins, look to Christ as his Savior, and trust in God to save him from such a realm.
