Amelia Miller walks into Cottonwood Grove as the new kid, only she has a secret, and her mysterious and curious nature captivates Jimmy, drawing him to her. The two quickly become friends after Jimmy rescues Amelia from the local bullies. While their friendship blossoms, Jimmy gains Amelia's trust and she lets him in on her little secret-Amelia has in her possession a seemingly simple blue egg, which she claims is the key to another world.
But Amelia's secret is also Jimmy's past, intertwined with his own family bloodline. This meeting was no accident, and there are dark forces that threaten to destroy both Amelia and Jimmy's worlds.
In the end, the two must stand together, united under a banner of friendship, love, and faith if they hope to confront the ultimate foe from Amelia's world... the Dark Light.

And this time, he does not come alone. Amid the chaos, a girl is taken, dragged into the darkness by forces no one fully understands. What begins as a rescue quickly turns into something far more deadly. Because if Sazamor reaches the Book of Seals first... there may be nothing left to save. With allies bound by uncertain trust-Azeal, Sierra, Hanroh, and Aslan.....Kamoor is pulled into a journey of relentless battles, hidden truths, and powers that defy everything he thought he knew. This is not just a rescue. It is a race against something far older... and far more dangerous than war.Complete

Kat opened her mouth to speak but stopped when his hand slid up from her leg, gliding up her stomach and stopping just below her breast. "Not even here?" He asked, following the curve of her breast with one finger, not touching, staying just below as he dragged it back and forth. "What about here?" He asked, sliding his hand down from her ribs to the bottom of her shorts then around to her butt, fingers nearly grazing it as he inched them up, under her pajamas. "I can say with certainty, never here," he said, lowering his other hand under the waistband of her shorts, touching the top of her underwear. "No, you've definitely never felt that before. I can hear your heart racing, I can feel your breathing, I can smell your body responding like it's never experienced these sensations before," he whispered, sliding a finger just underneath the band.
