Cheyenne Mitchell grew up as an average Christian girl, in a strict Seventh Day Adventist family. But she ALSO lives a double life working as a pornstar, Cece Phoenix, fed into this life by a group of perverted, anti-religious rebels. Until the day comes that she gets caught in a horrific car crash and nearly dies. And when she wakes up, her spirit is pulled out from her body, and taken down to Hell where she is shown NO MERCY. But not all hope is lost, for after Cheyenne realizes what's happened, she is given a miraculous second chance by Christ. When she returns to her body, she's given a new beginning for her life, away from home with various NEW companions, including Albert Johnson, the church guitarist who saved her from the wreckage. She wants to know a few things: is it possible to start over? Can she conquer her past and escape? Did God allow everything to happen for a reason, and if so, why? Because to the world, Cece Phoenix is dead. But even though it's Cheyenne Mitchell who still lives, her friends and family aren't aware, and the past still follows her.... And warning: this will contain very mature and sensitive topics, brief graphic violence, and swearing. The main character is an ex pornstar, but any sexual scenes are going to be kept as subtly and as brief as possible, not TOO explicit in details (with one future exception) Overall, this IS a story on Christian faith and redemption through God, but I won't pull too many punches. Not only are there A LOT of cliches and stereotypes in Christian stories and media, but also a lot of topics that tend to get ignored, such as pornographic topics. However, I believe that it IS important that we acknowledge them, and even more so, I believe it's important to HAVE stories involving Christian faith, that contain a sense of realism, like this one. It'll be a long journey, but I hope you stick around. You won't regret it. Please comment, vote and share this with your friends, and may God bless you with this.
