Page 57 of Elysian


  The world of Paragon and all of its mysteries—its secrets—have become a jewel buried in my heart.

  I know somewhere there is a river whose streams make glad the city of God, and I know that each one of us makes up that river. It’s up to us where we take the stream. It’s up to us to shape tomorrow. We have free will—but in that free will, destiny still finds a way.

  I know that I hold forever in my arms, that happily ever after waits for me, and that one day I’ll have dominion.

  Gage picks me up and spins me in a glorious dizzying circle, our lips never parting, never wanting to.

  The mercy of God is new every morning.

  And He is making everything new.

  Thank you for reading, Elysian (Celestra Series Book 8). If you enjoyed this book, please consider leaving a review at Amazon, Barnes and Noble, or your point of purchase.

  *Look for Skyla in her New Adult Series, (Celestra Forever After, Book 1), coming SOON!

  Acknowledgements

  Huge thanks to my family for putting up with mountains of laundry in its various stages, far too much take-out, and the precious quiet time you allowed me to have while I spent countless hours on Paragon.

  A very special thank you to Sarah Freese for untangling knots, and delicately letting me know when I’ve gone too far. Your suggestions are always the best ones. To my proofreader, Christina Kendler, BIG thank you for all of those hours spent pouring over every sentence. Can you believe we made it to the end of this crazy ride!

  A special thank you to my amazing readers who have championed all of Skyla’s adventures with me. You will never know how much you mean to me. Every day I thank God for your kindness and willingness to enter the magical world of Paragon. They say the best kind of family is the one you choose, and I choose you, thank you for choosing Celestra. From the bottom of my heart, you have all of my love. We’ll always have Paragon.

  To the Master who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb, be praise and honor and glory and power for ever and ever. Your word is manna for my hungry soul. I owe you everything. Indeed, you are making everything new.
