Believe in the Mystics (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781793954565)

The busy suburbs of Seattle, Washington aren't the first place, Journey McCain has called home, but to her it definitely isn't a home. Her whole life has been spent with a parent that never felt like a family, in houses that never felt like home, which was the thing Journey envied most in life. The pictures on the wall, being picked up early from school, just everything. The only thing that could bring her mind from this was the stories her grandmother would tell her, of adventures beyond belief, but she knew that her executive mother would never let her have her own adventure. So now that her mother has made the decision to move Journey's grandmother, whom Journey loved and admired, into a nursing home, without any thought of how they would feel, all hope of an adventure was lost. Journey was furious with her mother for separating her from her grandmother. That is, until she discovered a package of small treasures from her grandmother's adventures that was left for her. After finding her grandmother's old journal, along with the treasures, she began to read stories of magic and mystery, of beings that ceased to exist, and of a place of equal measure, including the secrets of her grandmother's adventures. When the abrupt and shaky ending caught her attention, she found herself in the world of which she was described in the journal. Upon being attacked by a rogue creature, she is rescued by a handsome guard of a nearby town. Being taken into the town's care, she learns of magic and the beings in which it inhabits. Soon she learns that she too has magic, but one that is far too uncontrollable for one to deem safe. In the midst of her worries and hardships of her uncontrolled magic, she learns of a prophecy of a group of magical beings called the Mystics that disappeared one hundred years before. The prophecy seems to lead back to her appearance in the forest. She continues to struggle between her magic and learning the secrets of the Mystics and how she is related to them. Soon an evil being threatens war between the villages over the Mystics' relics. These relics hold their magic and were hidden before their disappearance. The prophecy and the people who believe it expect her, and her alone, to be their savior, and the rightful leader of the Mystics. Meaning that just like her mother, decisions were made for her and she was once again in it alone. How much more of this could she handle? Will she flee and ignore her destiny that was written without her consent, or will she continue on the adventure of a lifetime, protecting the one place she can finally call home, with people that she can finally call a family?
