~ Jimmy Mankins is a quiet, reserved boy from a broken home in Cottonwood Grove, KS. When he befriends the strange new girl in school, he has his eyes opened to a new world full of wonder and beauty, but also hidden dangers that fight to penetrate his quiet life in a small town.
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.

She yearned for a world not ruled by the darkness and the demons awaiting her inside it... For nearly eighteen years, Adaira Young has been able to hide from the monsters that plague her small village. Every year in Kinnot, a name must be drawn to be offered to the beasts from the mountains. Once they are sacrificed and disappear through the gates, they are never seen again. When Adaira's world comes crashing down around her and she finds herself on the outside of those very walls, Adaira comes face to face with the monster she's been cowering from all her life: A terrifying man named Beast.

Sixteen years after a war that nearly tore the world apart, a new shadow rises-one long thought buried in the past. When Kamoor is called to the Spellcaster Town by his uncle, he expects answers... perhaps even a step closer to the path he has always chased. But what awaits him is something far greater-and far more dangerous. A name whispered in fear----Sazamor. The one who once wielded the forbidden Book of Seals... has returned. 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
