《Virtue and Vice》Author's Note
Advertisement
Hi everyone,
If this is your first time reading this book, welcome to the Cobalt Bay Billionaires series.
I started this series a long time ago and while a little bit of my writing has changed, my love for these characters have not. Be prepared to meet characters you might alternately love and hate, fight for and fight with, admire and admonish. That dilemma is perfectly natural when you get deep into a story that grips you and I hope that's what you find with this book and the rest of the series.
All four books in the series have been completed now and I strongly recommend you read them in order so that any spoilers won't seem like, well, spoilers. LOL.
With the series finished, I'm going to back to the earlier stories and editing a little bit to either align timeline details more accurately and to also update the writing and the tone in some parts. I grew up as a writer with this series and it's natural to let it evolve with me in some small ways. This might mean though that old comments disappear as they do when you edit the paragraphs. I wish there was a different way to do it but I think I can live with it if it means giving you a better story.
This may make some of you uncomfortable but after surveying many of my readers about whether to change this or not, I was surprised by how many agreed that this detail contributes to the overall story in terms of how she handled the situation and how she grows from that point. I think finding something that would change your whole life when you're young and undecided about how your future would look like shapes you irrevocably.
Like many of my stories, the intimate scenes are not shy on details but I don't believe it's anywhere near BDSM or erotica level.
With all that said, enjoy, comment and vote!

LIlith's Firstborn
The legend says that the Forbidden Fruit made the first two humans – Adam and Eve – intelligent, but what if it was the other way around? What if the Forbidden Fruit took most of their humility, their intelligence, their kindness, etc. away and turn them into the discriminating, angry, and hateful humans that they are? What if the only way to turn back into their former selves was to lead a good life on Earth to cleanse their souls? The legend also says that Lilith was a demoness who fled from Heaven and was granted mercy when she showed humility and proved that her soul was still worthy of saving despite all her wrongdoings. What if, after centuries of sinning, Lilith finally found her way back to kindness? What if God forgave Lilith for her crimes? What if she gave birth to a baby after she had repented? And what if that baby is the only human soul in existence that isn’t tainted by the Forbidden Fruit or her past sins? Tallitanya of Lilith inherited her mother’s immortality and grew up at a rate much slower than an average human so she had witnessed the rise and fall of empires even though she is physically and mentally 21 years old. She was born on Earth, but she moved to Heaven when she was physically 5 years old and didn’t return until she was 18 years old. She was tasked, by God himself, to guard over the Forbidden Tree which had since been replanted on an isolated island on Earth. She loves that job, and she loves that she was given direct instructions instead of having to figure out what God’s so-called ‘mysterious plans’ for her was. Centuries went by. Tallitanya is 21 years old when the Final Judgement is nigh. As an immortal who has yet to have a real affiliation with Heaven or Hell, Tallitanya has received a personal invitation from the Antichrist who wishes to recruit Tallitanya. Heaven also sends its angel – Michael – to inform Tallitanya that as a human, her soul would also be judged by God. She was ordered to leave her post as the Forbidden Tree’s guardian so that she could get to know the other humans before she makes an actual decision about who she wants to align herself with. The second she steps out of the island, it disappears. Turns out, her message from God was faked, and so was her mission. The devil had tricked her, and as the guardian of the Forbidden Tree, she must recover the tree and the island, or humanity will perish within the year.
