Book I
The Gem
On the morning Felicity Ortiz and Hope Garland turn fifteen, a lavender pony, two model horses that come alive, and a birthday geode pull them out of New Jersey and into Amethysia: a purple star of jeweled horses, crystal caves, and a Rainbow Sun going dark. A wizard is waiting in the cave. A thousand-year prophecy names them the two pure hearts who can save it. They have fifteen days to find the Fawnling Gem — or disappear.

Book II
The Egg
The Fawnling Gem is only the beginning. The prophecy still asks for an owl’s egg of power, and the witch’s cloud is eating more of the Rainbow every hour. Friendship, horses, and a ticking clock have to hold while Amethysia prepares for a fight it has never had to fight before.

Book III
The Eye
Gem and Egg are not enough. The last treasure of the prophecy — the Eye — must reach the Triad, or the Rainbow dies. Two girls from Jersey, a Lipizzaner, a Clydesdale, and everything they have left.

Highlights
A Lipizzaner named March Frost and a Clydesdale named Silas begin as birthday models — and become the girls’ only way across a world.
By the fifteenth day of their fifteenth year they must succeed, or disappear. The treasures have names: the Fawnling Gem, the Egg of Power, the Eye of the Prophecy.
Amethyst caves. A purple castle. Wind Weavers in wooden hooves. Crystalights who mine light and sing the future in chime-tones.
Written for readers who never outgrew barn boots, model horses, or the wish that a secret world would open if they just believed hard enough. Ages 12+.
