If you like paranormal stories by Amanda Hocking and Alyson Noel, you'll love Shelley Adina's Immortal Faith!
In the small, traditional community of Minuit, Idaho, the Brethren pray that God will deliver them from evil. They should have been more specific. Sophie Dupont is on the threshold of womanhood, standing in the door between her religion's way of life and the possibilities of the world outside. She is also torn between two young men: David Martin, whom she has known since childhood, and Gabriel Langford, the new arrival. In a community that only grows when people are born into it, a convert - young, single, and male - is the most exciting thing that has happened in years. When Sophie's uncle is found dead in the barn with his throat slashed and bitten, the community grieves - except Sophie, who has been abused by him for years. And when the local mean girl is killed the same way, Sophie hardly dares to voice what she suspects: that only the worst among them are being weeded out. Under the elders' approving eyes, it seems Gabriel is dedicated to worshipping God. But his methods may not stand up to too close a scrutiny . . . and Sophie is getting very close indeed . . .
