Sins will weave you into their webs. They become the Vice you're unable to shake. There are the values, taught from birth, which ride a razor's edge. They turn into Dark Virtues, a twisted mockery of their true meaning. Pride, envy, lust, gluttony, anger, greed and sloth all have their place in the tapestry of life. They are the Vices who lost sight of the Virtues: charity, temperance, forgiveness, humility, kindness, chastity and diligence. Enter the worlds where the tales of the most sinful of Vices and the darkest of Virtues will entice and intrigue you... ...for even among the most devout there is a dark side.

Through endless texts, countless posts, and obsessive chats, we discovered the treasure hidden along this path.This is our story.Our first real book signing. And the beginning of one very wild, extremely funny, and beautifully intense adventure.
