Before history was properly recorded, something happened on earth—a horrid event that could twist the tongue when described in the words of men. Humans and supernatural beings partnered together to contravene a law but were quickly bundled up and flushed into the bottomless pit and under the marine beds. Today, the horrors of sex slavery, abduction of beautiful young virgins from different parts of the world, and a physical, coded manifestation of fallen angels have all teamed up to pull out this ancient sin from the abyss. The seventh virgin’s story written on a parchment with bloody ink extracted from the veins of snakes and rodents must be given credence, for it—together with her knowledge of Egyptian writings and hieroglyphic drawings—could be used as tools to liberate thousands of maidens locked in African jungles and Egyptian pyramids and also prevent the rebirth of the giant race! Here comes a page-turning, supernatural, thriller novel filled with nerve-twisting suspense, heartbreak, betrayal, treachery, broken covenants, riots between terrestrial men and extraterrestrial creatures, immoral acts between a man and a deity’s bride, and pregnancies resulting from ungodly unions between virgins and supernatural beings.

Long overlooked by scholars, this seventh-century "Life of the Virgin," attributed to Maximus the Confessor, is the earliest complete Marian biography. Originally written in Greek and now surviving only in Old Georgian, it is now translated for the first time into English. It is a work that holds profound significance for understanding the history of late ancient and medieval Christianity, providing a rich source for understanding the history of Christian piety.This "Life "is especially remarkable for its representation of Mary's prominent involvement in her son's ministry and her leadership of the early Christian community. In particular, it reveals highly developed devotion to Mary's compassionate suffering at the Crucifixion, anticipating by several centuries an influential medieval style of devotion known as "affective piety" whose origins generally have been confined to the Western High Middle Ages.

A young woman hides out in a convent in this prequel to the dark erotic romance series by a USA Today–bestselling author. For years, Kingsley Edge warned Eleanor the day would come when she, the mistress of a well-respected Catholic priest, would have to run. She always imagined if that day came, she’d be running with Søren. Instead, she’s running from him. Fearing Søren and Kingsley will use their power and influence to bring her back, Eleanor takes refuge at the one place the men in her life cannot follow. Behind the cloistered gates of the convent where her mother has taken orders, Eleanor hides from the man she loves and hates in equal measure. With Eleanor gone, the lights have gone out in Kingsley’s kingdom. When he learns the reason she left, he, too, turns his back on Søren and runs. On a beach in Haiti, Kingsley meets Juliette, the one woman who could save him from his sorrows. But only if he can save her first. Eleanor can hide from Søren but she can’t hide from her true nature. A virginal novice at the abbey sends Eleanor down a path of sexual awakening, but to follow this path means leaving her lover behind, a sacrifice Eleanor refuses to make. The lure of the forbidden, the temptation to sin and the price of passion have never been higher, and Eleanor and Kingsley will have to pay it if they ever want to go home again.
