The winds of fate are blowing for Scott and Jenna, and the adventure is worthy of the big screen!” Resigned: Being the only child of globe-trotting explorers is the worst thing ever. It’s a nightmare of home-school, missed dates, and being dragged to Brazil so often there’s zero chance of ever breaking the curse called Never Been Kissed. I’m Jenna Masters, sixteen, and the Patron Saint of Lost Causes. Defiant: Enter Scott Henley. Eighteen, medical volunteer, and totally hot brainiac forced to join our expedition as punishment for being kicked out of Harvard. Twice. Except that genius IQ of his won’t help when it comes to enduring remote river tributaries and trekking through an isolated jungle to find a sacred site. It’s enough of a challenge just trying to survive. Quest: Things go from bad to worse when a blind seer delivers a dire warning – A discovery looms, one surrounded in danger, chaos and fear. Evil seeks it, they must defend it. The path is set and the stakes are high. Sure, there's that whole protection of a water goddess thing, but the menacing puzzle may prove more than a savvy traveler and resourceful history whiz can conquer alone. Crystal Prophecy is a coming-of-age journey. It’s finding unexpected friendship, surviving a life-threatening adventure, and falling into a discovery that defies history. It’s a story of revelation and change, a hint of lost legends, and a quest to expose a long-hidden truth to the world.
