Yvette, 23 and a self proclaimed engineer lives in the city Ryder in South Carolina, which is home to a radical religious group called, "The Church of Archaic Values." They hate anything new, and the city of Ryder-along with the all the other cities in the United States-has adapted latter-day values: new cars, new ways of advertisement, and new architecture. 
Yve finds herself clinging onto this religious fervor after years of neglect and domestic abuse, clinging onto the hope that everything will be alright, and this "radical" god could fix her-but what ensues after her faith is lost, and she finds something that is not only far better, but comforting?

Jourdan Mathews has a secret, and she knows she needs to take this one to the grave. * * * Her life was never complicated: a college student with a close family, good friends, and a plan for her future as a doctor. Had that night had never happened, she might even have been called ordinary. But we're not made by ordinary moments. Now in her senior year, Jourdan is in freefall after a catalyzing summer that turned everything upside-down. Her friends know she's in trouble, and her parents hope they've done enough to save her, but Jourdan doesn't feel anything anymore. They say moving on happens slowly, but something needs to change fast before life moves on without her. Ryder Harris considers his life to be the farthest thing from "ordinary." He isn't just the kind-of-good basketball player that made him popular in high school. He is the kind-of-great that comes along once in a generation, a fact that has propelled him on a course which only attempts to reach for the stars. If you ask him, this isn't luck or special talent. No, Ryder Harris makes a point to focus himself, to remain undistracted. He's got priorities, and at the very top of his list is being drafted into the NBA. That dream is very close to becoming a reality his senior year, so close he can almost taste it. But the universe has a nasty habit of giving us what we need, not what we want. * * * part I - Jourdan & Ryder * * * Every Saint Needs a Sinner. Copyright. © May 2022. All Rights Reserved.
