A Week of Werewolves, Faeries, and Fancy Dresses

2015

Four teenagers. Two worlds. One quest. What could possibly go wrong? Chelsea Welling is a completely normal fifteen-year-old girl… until one day a portal appears in front of her and pulls her into a fantasy world. After that everything gets weird. Chelsea is half convinced that she is going crazy, until she realizes that she isn’t the only one experiencing this. Her twin brother and two childhood friends have also been brought to this world. But why is this happening to them? And what about these four connects them? Then one day they find themselves face to face with the powerful mage who is responsible for bringing them into this world, except instead of answering their questions he only gives them new ones. Suddenly they find themselves the inheritors of a magical legacy and the ones chosen to fulfill a deadly prophecy. Even worse, they have been cursed and cannot return home unless they complete a quest their fathers set out on over twenty years ago. The only problem? They have no idea what this quest is... Chelsea is in for one trying week as she discovers a whole new world, flees from a dark creature that needs her blood to unlock immortality, and tries to figure out just where she stands with her surprisingly handsome childhood friend—all while she struggles alongside her friends to fulfill the all-but-impossible task of finding out what this quest is. But can they truly succeed where their fathers failed? This portal fantasy is perfect for YA readers who want a clean adventure, slow-burn romance, and coming of age story set in a dangerous but extremely magical fantasy realm.

A Time of Trepidation, Pirates, and Lost Princesses

Their journey has only just begun…

2016

Four teenagers. Two worlds. One quest. Since when did survival get so hard? All Chelsea and her friends have are each other… and magical abilities that they inherited from their fathers. But other than that, they’re on their own. It’s been a week since they were bound to Amar, and they are still no closer to accomplishing their fathers’ quest and getting home. To make matters worse, the only lead they have is an ominous book of poetry that was written over seven hundred years ago. Inside this book are several mysterious, almost prophetic poems that tell of four heroes who are the only ones who can save Amar from a dark fate. The poems also warn that one of the four will betray the other three, one will be left behind, and one will die. Full of trepidation over what these poems could mean for them all, Chelsea and her friends journey to the Bextian Sea, the lawless home of pirates and monsters, following a rumor about a golden amulet that has the potential to finally reveal what this quest is. Alas, nothing goes according to plan and soon Chelsea finds herself trying to survive a savage mermaid attack, a vengeful pirate king, and a sudden declaration of love from her childhood friend. All added to the stress of being trapped in a magical world, and the worry that these foreboding poems might actually be prophecies foretelling the future of her and her friends. This portal fantasy is perfect for YA readers who want a clean adventure, slow-burn romance, and coming of age story set in a dangerous but extremely magical fantasy realm.
