A betrayal. A hidden princess. One epic fantasy.
Tayla, a teen from Earth, has known only the cruel life of an orphan. When she's transported to the Land of Fordel, a magical realm filled with humans, fairies, centaurs, and other creatures, she discovers her true origin-this wondrous land is her home and she's to be its next Queen!
As breathtaking as this new world is to her, danger lurks everywhere. Fordel has been overrun with Dreeks, foul and slimy black creatures who've brought ruin to the lands. And there is the troubling issue of her parents' betrayal, whose identity is still unknown.
Born to fulfill the ancient prophecy of ridding the land of the Dreeks, Tayla fears she isn't enough to save everyone; she still harbors inner trauma from her past and she knows little of this new realm.
A confrontation with a powerful spiritual guardian may be the key to helping her conquer her inner demons, but it will be no easy journey to unite the different clans and prepare for war. Along the way, she'll have to contend with the dreaded Dreeks, her parents' betrayer, and even a sea serpent. If she is to survive, she'll have to stop running from her past and look with strength to her future.
A bold, YA coming of age fantasy featuring a female main character and some Christian elements, highlighting the importance of friendship, restoration, and healing. Set in an exciting and magical land, this book will appeal to young readers and adults alike.
