The real me lives in the shadows, the seedy underbelly, where sin Is the only air we know how to breathe. My dreams of going Pro are at my fingertips. But in one moment, one hit, those dreams come crashing down around me.The money, the fame, the life I wanted to give my mother. All gone.Once I was Kingston "The King" Reyes. Women and men had chanted my name. Worshiped me. Now I work as a postal worker by day...and at night, I crawl into the dark, seedy underbelly of sin. An illegal underground fight club, where I still reign with my fists, but where every fight could be my last. The "Brothers," Dutch and Dom, hold my leash while they pay for my mother's cancer treatments. I'm their puppet, their boy toy for wealthy women and power. You don't cross them unless you want to end up on the bottom of a river.Corrupt darkness coats my skin, marks my bones. I don't see any light or hope, until on my route, I meet a pint-sized, mute, little girl, who seems to look right through me. She sees past the bruises and scars, while I can hear beyond her silence.Yet it is her mother, Sawyer, I should run from. Sexy, feisty, and smart, Sawyer's darkness draws me in. Challenges me.She is everything I can't have. Everything forbidden.But everything I want.No matter the consequences . . .

Our Lady's life is full of stories and traditions that have led to doctrines and dogmas which have only magnified the meaning and power of our Lord's coming. But, have you ever wondered what the prayer life of the "handmaid of the Lord" looked like in her formative years? How did our Blessed Mother pray as a child and what kept her continually in the will of God as an early contemplative and mystic? As she grew in maturity and wisdom, how did she teach her son Jesus, the Savior of the world, to pray as a young boy or as a teen? David Torkington answers these questions and more as he leads us on a journey into union with God through the prayer life of the Virgin Mary. While Never Too Late To Love begins with the ways in which she would have communicated with God as a young Jewish girl, it quickly goes further into explaining how the early Church also prayed in a similar manner, and why her apparition messages at places like Fatima, Akita, and Quito have always called us to a life of repentance, prayer, sacrifice, and the sacraments. If you have ever desired to deepen your inner life, find a stronger connection to the Lady of the Rosary, and discover new ways to strengthen your relationship with Our Lord, come and see why Bishop Athanasius Schneider, Mother Abbess Cecilia (Abbess of The Benedictines of Mary, Queen of Apostles), and Dan Burke (The Avila Institute) have all endorsed Never Too Late To Love.
