Publisher's summary

Mary Persephone Hail

Mary - well-wished - for child.

Persephone - destruction.

Hail - well that speaks for itself.

Her name is painful to think about. Mary, his newfound daughter, isn't a wished-for child. Persephone, though? Yeah, destruction is a fitting description. And Hail? Yeah, that's just the final f-you.

The moment that her mother drops her off on his doorstep, Dante's hell becomes complete. Or so he thinks. What can make life worse after losing one's wife and kids, you ask? Here's what: being given a baby that depends on him for her survival. Finding out that the baby's mother is dying of brain cancer and has a husband that he never knew about. A husband that Dante knows in the marrow of his bones is trying to kill her just as surely as the cancer eating her brain.

Dante's a bad person. He's done some not so nice things, and now he's being punished for his misdeeds. Karma is finally catching up to him. This child that he's been stuck with is of his flesh and bone. This child is his salvation. This child is the final nail in the coffin of his wife and daughters' too short lives. He doesn't want this child. But this child will save him whether he wants her to or not.

With the help of a friend- yes, a woman friend - Dante finds his way back to life. But what he finds when he gets back isn't the same life that he left behind. Turns out, he has to start living a new one. One where he's suddenly having feelings for a friend that helped him get through some tough times, and loving a daughter who won't let him quit.

Contains mature themes.

Dante & Cobie

I have been waiting patiently for Dante’s story, and Oh Boy, was it worth the wait. Ms. Vale our did herself on this one. Her books just keep getting better.
I laughed, I cried, and of course I swooned. This is a captivating, heartbreaking, heart melting story. I knew going into this Dante’s story would be rough but this blew me away. Add Cobie to the mix and everything just fit together so perfectly. I do not think it could have been better.
Narration was fantastic!!!

Hail Mary

Great performance all around; although it's an emotional story, I do have the occasional smile. I love this series so much

Love this story

Love the story. Actually love all the stories in this whole line of books. I only have 2 issues with this particular storyline. First how many changes to the sister’s death, four? And I thought Baylor was the brother that owned the majority of the business? Not big deals and no way ruined the storyline.

Good ending

So I've waited to get Dante's Story and it was heartbreaking all around. The main plot line for me was a bit lackluster but that seems par for the course with this author theres usually a lot going on and things tend to just fall apart towards the end it's like "oh we have to wrap this up and set up the next story. I do enjoy the epilogues and I was happy to see Dante find love again. narration as always was done well.

Loved the series

I have listened to many of Lani Lynn’s books and have enjoyed most of them. The Hail series dealt with a lot of sensitive issues, and could have triggers for some. That being said I love books where the characters aren’t what society considerers perfect. She does a good job making them seem more realistic, and relatable
