Child of the Forest (Child of Prophecy 2)

Book 2 of the Child of Prophecy series by Audrey Simmons

Even as bait, Neoma thought she would have a little more time to have fun with her best friends on Tour before things got serious. But Tobias’ words still ring in her ears.

A chilling prophecy about tangled destinies. One that Tobias refused to expand on. Only a hint that a relationship with Luca will mean she never comes home.

Almost as soon as the journey begins Neoma is given yet another dire prophecy from the Mountain Herself: hold close the stars in your soul or the Mad God will win this fight and chaos will reign.

Neoma has a decision to make but the clock is ticking. Aurinkun warships have been spotted off the coast of Manena.

War is no longer a distant possibility. Only an inevitability.
