The Saint of Heartbreak

«Finally we have a lovely, melancholic, sensual romance between two of the Bible’s greatest villains—Judas Iscariot and the Devil. Between lush, decadent prose, Morgan Dante weaves together a queer love story, a gorgeous homage to The Divine Comedy, and thoughts on finding love in the damned shadow of God. A hellish, sacrilegious must-read.» — rafael nicolás, author of Angels Before Man

«Morgan Dante has done it again: THE SAINT OF HEARTBREAK is sensuous, provocative, and heart-wrenching in equal measure. Painting a picture of lonely, cyclical damnation, Dante turns ‘Hell is other people’ on its head. Masterful and salacious, this gothic romance is sure to make your heart full.» — Tyler Battaglia, author of Pray for Him

Two of the Bible’s greatest villains…

After his betrayal with a kiss, Judas Iscariot dies in despair and goes to Hell. When Christ saves other souls during the Harrowing of Hell, he leaves Judas behind—but not alone in the ninth circle, where the most detestable traitors go. Callous, resigned, and abandoned by God long ago, the Devil sees Judas as a pathetic wretch, but he soon finds a kindred spirit. As the centuries pass, they struggle to find even a sliver of happiness in Hell.

Doomed by the narrative, will they find happiness, or will their story continue to be a tragedy?
