Renegade Blurb
The conclusion to the Heven and Hell series.

I’ve been beautiful. I’ve been ugly. I’ve died. I’ve been brought back. I’ve had abilities awakened within me. My strength has been tested. My beliefs have been tested.
Yet I stand.
What’s next when you’ve pretty much experienced it all?
The end.
Sam and I are picking up the pieces. We’re trying to come to terms with all we’ve lost. And as much as I would like to hide my head, ignore the reality I live every day, there is no forgetting.
Riley is in hell—I’m still not sure of his agenda. My mother’s past haunts me. And Kimber… Kimber is being herself. Cole sneaks glances at Gemma and she returns them when she thinks I don’t see.
But I do.
When Beelzebub escapes he brings his war to places I never thought he would. Earth. Maine. Home. Now everyone and everything is at risk. This has become bigger than my circle of friends. This has become bigger than me. I have to finish this. I have to find a way to stop him, to finish this war.
I just pray we will all be left standing in the end.


Cambria Hebert is the author of the young adult paranormal Heven and Hell series and the Death Escorts series. She loves a caramel latte, hates math and is afraid of chickens (yes, chickens). She went to college for a bachelor’s degree, couldn’t pick a major and ended up with a degree in cosmetology. So rest assured her characters will always have good hair.

Chapter One



Sam 


It begins like usual, the slightest disturbance to my sleep, making me toss and turn until I’m 
in that place between rest and wakefulness—not fully coherent, but enough so I could have groggy thoughts. 
There is pain, not the kind of pain that would make you squirm, just enough to make you feel 
uncomfortable. It kind of squirms around in my limbs, like adrenaline, but not as insistent, making my body twitch.
My eyes pop open, and I shoot up off the couch, not bothering to grab a T-shirt or the shorts 
that lay nearby. I won’t need them. I move silently like a cat—like a hound—to the door and slide the lock over and let myself out. It’s cold out. The air doesn’t shock me back into myself. I don’t even shiver. 
Then I’m racing through the yard, over the grass, and past the barn. I hear the horses in their 
stalls, alerted at my presence, but I ignore them and keep running. My bones come unhinged and realign. My spine stretches, begins to reshape, and my body hunches. Black, thick fur sprouts, replacing the smooth skin of my human arm and then finally the switch in my brain flips.

I am no longer human.
I am hellhound. 
But I’m still me. 
Only this me can give in to the frustration and sadness that seems to well up inside my human 
skin until I’m so full and there’s nowhere else for it to go. And so it sloshes there. It soaks in until I feel like I’ll drown. 
I hate it. 

That’s when the hound takes over. I can’t really deny it. It’s like a summons, a calling, a 
command. Usually I can tell it no, or push back, but when you’re full of sloshing emotion there’s 
nowhere to push it back to.
So I give in.
I run. 
I lose all thought.
It’s just me, the night, and nothing else. It’s a kind of freedom I’ve never felt before.
And then I wake up.



My Review



Renegade (Heven and Hell, #4)Renegade by Cambria Hebert
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Full of twists, turns, drama, sorrow, and every emotion you can think of! This book is a fantastic *ending* to the Heven and Hell series. I hate to see it go and hope that the author is just "Holding out on us" with more! I've followed Sam and Heven since the beginning and it's been one incredible journey! This book, as with the rest, are fantastic.
