Ozarks

Ozark Erebus was 16 winters old, a slave whose hair was dark as the night sky, whose eyes shone bright gold, and a pale unblemished face. Being a slave-borne he knew no kindness towards himself until he was roomed with Ara, a pregnant young lady with wild red hair, eyes of pure silver, and a smile that comforted Ozark. They quickly bonded and Ozark slowly saw her as the only Good in the world so he gave all he can to give her some semblance of comfort: from giving her parts of the sparce meals given to them, to taking lashes on the back and torso to secure her a tub of warm water and clean towels when she was at labor giving birth to a toddler Ara named as Mia. Ozark never noticed the smile he had as both were safe.... Until the day came of the auction... Ozark was chosen for his rather unique appearance and temper. He would unwillingly leave Ara and Mia but he swore he would get them back and that he'll do anything. . .  Even deal with a Demoness whose eyes never cease to stop grinning even if it costed his Humanity then so Be it.

Fighting against the clock, Dillon Brewington has to find who’s behind the increasingly deadly attempts against his brother.

About the Author Regina Tittel grew up outside a small rural community in S.E. Missouri with an older sister, and a younger sister and brother. With parents fully dedicated to one another and God, she describes her childhood as idyllic. With a couple dogs, a cat or two and several horses to cover their sixty acres, she was blessed with a creative atmosphere . . . but never imagined becoming a writer. It wasn't until after the birth of her second child that she began to devote herself to her first novel. What started as a drive in the country, spurred the makings of the first volume of The Ozark Durham Series, Abandoned Hearts. Within the pages of inspirational fiction, Regina found the key to using her spiritual gift of exhortation. Through stories of love, suspense, and sometimes even laughter, she encourages her readers to walk closer to God by following the principles set forth in His Word. ​Regina learned the art of writing fiction by using the books she read as guides and joining a critique group through American Christian Fiction Writers. Although Abandoned Hearts finaled in two separate contests in 2010, Mara Fiction From the Heartland and Show Me the Spark contests, and topped number one in three separate categories on Amazon in 2012, Regina credits God with her rapid success, stating, "It's not about me, but He that works through me." Regina still resides in S.E. Missouri with her husband and their two daughters, one dog, several chickens and two cussin
