The Prophecy has a new look. The author has a new name. But you can still count on her awesomeness! Check out THE PROPHECY, book one in the Fulfillment Series. About the book: Growing up on a small farm in the kingdom of Vanguard, seventeen-year-old Layla Givens lives a deceptively tranquil existence.

When he accidently meets Layla, he’s no longer content to live in the shadows, but he must resist his growing attrac...
