    About this ebook

    A young woman, frantic to save her father's settlement; a warrior-priest, desperate to escape his past; a gritty post-apocalyptic wasteland, where justice rules from the edge of the sharpest sword....

    When Brother Michael finds a young woman in the middle of the desert, he never imagines that she's anything more than lucky to be alive. But with a silver cross, the symbol of his brotherhood, glinting in her hair, he pledges his sword to defend her.

    But as the warrior wages a hopeless battle against his inner demons, and the scholar is bound by mysteries he's helpless to unravel, Michael sees the foundation of his faith crumbling.

    Will rescuing Cross cost the priest his soul?

    Gayla Scot-Hays

    After fifteen years in corporate life and another eighteen herding cats, Gayla Scot-Hays is hoping to spend more time with her first love: writing. A self-described "genre orphan," she spends most days thinking about and reading about writing. Her goal for the future is to actually do some writing, and to that end, she has abandoned her first novel, "The Silver Cross," to publication, and is currently struggling to craft a sequel, "The Road to Heaven."
