Are soul mates real, or just a fairy tale? What if you found your soul mate, but you had to fight your way through heaven and hell to stay together. Could you sacrifice everything, even your own soul, for the one you love?
Emmett Goode moves to a more affluent neighborhood with the hope of leaving his troubled past behind, starting fresh at a new school, and more importantly, reconnecting with his lost love, Ash, who is dealing some personal demons of her own. A tragic accident brings them together; unfortunately, before they can enjoy their new relationship they find themselves at the center of a battle between good and evil that has existed since the beginning of humanity, and forced on a harrowing journey through this world and beyond to stay together. Their bond, and the supernatural power it creates, could mean the difference between saving the world, or its destruction.
Is love enough to overcome seemingly impossible odds?
Excerpt:
As
I awaken in the dark warmth of this terrifying place, laid out on the strangely
uneven ground, I open my eyes to see the true horrors this place was built
upon. The hills and valleys are not made of dirt at all but rather the bodies
and remains of various humans and unidentifiable creatures. The uncomfortable
warmth quickly turns to searing heat; with each second that passes my skin slowly
burns away from my body, literally turning to ash and dispersing into the fiery
air. The pain is excruciating. I want to scream in pain, but I quickly realize
that all I can hear are the tortured screams and moans that seem to be coming
from everywhere and nowhere at the same time. I try to move and the skin on my
legs tears away in large grotesque chunks. What am I doing here? I think to
myself, and I remember that I am here for a very specific reason. Where is she?
She is supposed to be near where I landed. If I don’t reach her soon, we will
be doomed to remain in eternal fire and pain forever.
I
turn franticly, looking everywhere, all the while hoping the pain that feels
like burning needles in my eyes doesn’t mean that my eyes are about to fall out
of my head. I feel a sharp jolt in my chest as I peer into the noxious haze
that seems to be growing right before my burning eyes. There, there she is, she
can’t be more than fifty feet away. I can make it to her, just as I thought.
This plan has to work; I only have a minute or two to make this work. Just
then, I realize just how difficult this is going to be. To my left are the
shadows I had seen before, on my right I see the disfigured faces of what I can
only imagine were once human beings descending upon me, and right in front of
Ash is the menacing figure of a twenty foot tall man-beast. Suddenly the
screams and moans stop, only to be replaced by something more sinister. All I
can hear is the malevolent laughter of the creatures that have come to make sure
that we never leave this unholy place. Wake up, Ash, please; I can’t do this
without you.
