There’s only one rule in Gehenna: survive—or die trying.

Acadia’s life has hit rock bottom. Once the darling of Beulah’s social elite, betrayal landed her in Gehenna—the notorious debtors’ prison. Now every day is a battle just to stay breathing. To live, she must become as ruthless as the monsters around her.

So Acadia hardens her heart, sealing off the emotions that could get her killed.

She won’t care. She won’t trust. She won’t break.

Then he arrives.

A stranger—scarred, smiling, and maddeningly kind. He insists he’s not a prisoner, just a visitor in rags. Worse, the stranger vows to rescue her, when everyone knows the only way out of Gehenna is in a body bag.

So why does her heart ache to believe him?

The more she’s around him, the harder it becomes to ignore the fire he awakens in her soul. 

In a place built to crush every trace of goodness, he might just be her undoing—or her salvation.

Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games, Divergent, and the Ted Dekker Circle Series, Beauty from Ashes is a fast-paced, faith-infused dystopian fantasy packed with high-stakes romance, brutal choices, and a spark of light in the deepest darkness.
