Blurb:
The conclusion to the Heven
and Hell series.
I’ve been beautiful. I’ve been ugly. I’ve died. I’ve been
brought back. I’ve had abilities awakened within me. My strength has been
tested. My beliefs have been tested.
Yet I stand.
What’s next when you’ve pretty much experienced it all?
The end.
Sam and I are picking up the pieces. We’re trying to come to
terms with all we’ve lost. And as much as I would like to hide my head, ignore
the reality I live every day, there is no forgetting.
Riley is in hell—I’m still not sure of his agenda. My
mother’s past haunts me. And Kimber… Kimber is being herself. Cole sneaks
glances at Gemma and she returns them when she thinks I don’t see.
But I do.
When Beelzebub escapes he
brings his war to places I never thought he would. Earth. Maine. Home. Now
everyone and everything is at risk. This has become bigger than my circle of
friends. This has become bigger than me. I have to finish this. I have to find
a way to stop him, to finish this war.
I just pray we will all be left standing in the end.

Chapter One
Sam
It begins like usual, the slightest disturbance to my
sleep, making me toss and turn until I’m in that place between rest and wakefulness—not
fully coherent, but enough so I could have groggy thoughts.
There is pain, not the kind of pain that would make
you squirm, just enough to make you feel uncomfortable. It kind of squirms
around in my limbs, like adrenaline, but not as insistent, making my body
twitch.
My eyes pop open, and I shoot up off the couch, not
bothering to grab a T-shirt or the shorts that lay nearby. I won’t need them. I
move silently like a cat—like a hound—to
the door and slide the lock over and let myself out. It’s cold out. The air
doesn’t shock me back into myself. I don’t even shiver.
Then I’m racing through the yard, over the grass, and
past the barn. I hear the horses in their stalls, alerted at my presence, but I
ignore them and keep running. My bones come unhinged and realign. My spine
stretches, begins to reshape, and my body hunches. Black, thick fur sprouts,
replacing the smooth skin of my human arm and then finally the switch in my
brain flips.
I am no longer human.
I am hellhound.
But I’m still me.
Only this me can give in to the frustration and
sadness that seems to well up inside my human skin until I’m so full and
there’s nowhere else for it to go. And so it sloshes there. It soaks in until I
feel like I’ll drown.
I hate it.
That’s when the hound takes over. I can’t really deny
it. It’s like a summons, a calling, a command. Usually I can tell it no, or
push back, but when you’re full of sloshing emotion there’s nowhere to push it
back to.
So I give in.
I run.
I lose all thought.
It’s just me, the night, and nothing else. It’s a kind
of freedom I’ve never felt before.
And then I wake up.
