One will win her heart
one will try to steal it
one will try to kill her.
Jessica's sole priority for the past thirteen years has been to keep her father alive in the hope he will wake up from his coma and save her. Threatening to cut off his lifeline at any sign of independence, her mother has controlled her life, even to the point of an arranged engagement to Seth, whom Jessica fears even more than her mother. When Jessica accepts this most outrageous demand yet she then discovers her father has "passed away" anyway, she knows she has to escape.
She runs until she is lost and bewildered in a Georgia swamp, where she discovers the existence of the wonderful place her father hinted at to her when she was only a child. In this magical, unreal world, just as she begins to discover the truth about her twisted family roots, three young men set their eyes on Jessica.

He stopped and shook his head at the sky. He then pointed out a vivid star high above them in the moonless sky. "There are magical places that exist in this world, Jess, places that the master architect created to balance good and evil. The time will come when you will leave this house and enter into another life that awaits you, a life you deserve and one with greater purpose. You don't know how special you really are."

Great book for young adults!
As an educator that has researched purchasing appropriate books for young adults, I'm really pleased to see a book on the market that offers a range of themes and a good message! I am almost finished with this book and it has been very easy as an adult even to be swept away into the events happening to Jessica and her experiences. This is an excellent choice for those who enjoy romance, suspense, mystery with a Christian twist! I will eagerly look forward to more books in this series.
Amazing!
I got the book in Tuesday and decided to read a chapter or two while in bed to get a feel for it. So, yeah, that didn't work out so well. I FINALLY closed the book at 2:30 a.m. but only because I could no longer see the words. lol. I finished it first thing the next morning. Rarely does a book draw me in with the first chapter. Seriously one of the top 5 books I have EVER read. I am in awe of your writing talent and CAN'T WAIT for the sequel.
A Great Mystery To Share
My husband and I did a little traveling this summer. As we drove around the countryside, I read this book aloud so we could both enjoy it. We loved savoring the book together over two trips, rather than reading it quickly on our own. From the very beginning of the story we were captivated by the storyline and the characters. We are looking forward to reading the next book in the series!
