She had only wanted to have a working marriage and a happy family. All of her efforts had been towards that goal. Despite that, her husband leaves her for another woman after the loss of her unborn child, and just as she starts to pick herself up, she dies in a car accident.

But this isn't the end of her story.

Her spirit is picked up by her brother. He happens to be a beginner god who needs help raising the hero who is supposed to save his fledgling world. Thinking he is offering her a long-sought-after opportunity to be a mother, she readily agrees, and he sends her down to his world with the gift of healing and a Methuselah grade body to aid her on her quest. She quickly finds her little boy and is overjoyed to have someone to love and baby at last. But this hero doesn't want her as his mother. He wants her as something else.

Suggested for ages 14+.

Raising a Hero

Sir Fairenson all but came running out when he saw me trying to flag down a carriage.


"My lady, why didn't you say anything? Please, let me help you with that."


"Uh, thank you. And it was just sort of a last minute decision. I've been needing some new clothes."


He stiffened. "Wait here. I'll arrange an escort and carriage. Please, the master would insist."


It was the said master who came out instead of Sir Fairenson when the carriage came around, armed with a sword at his hip and a somewhat breathless dimpled smile.


"Lillian! You wouldn't mind me accompanying you, would you? I have something I need to do in town as well."


I frown. "In the same part of town as me?" The shops in the square I was used to going to were nice, granted, but I knew for a fact they didn't dally to the elite. 


"The shopping district is the shopping district, isn't it?"


I narrowed my eyes. "You better not buy me anything."


He actually looked hurt, and I almost apologized.
