The Eyes of Mystic Forest

When 17-year-old Veronica "Ronnie" Taylor first looked at the forest, she had no idea the forest was looking back at her. The tragedy of her mother's death brings Ronnie to live with her father in the small town of Mystic Forest, where there are secrets about the town and everyone who lives there. Ronnie gets the feeling she's being followed, and soon learns that the beautiful trees of Mystic Forest hold something dark, something that compels her to follow the people of the woods and to fulfill their ancient prophecy. The "Forest Dwellers" believe that Ronnie is the one they have been waiting for these many years, the one who will bear the child that might one day allow them to come out of the forest and take over what they believe is rightly theirs. Ronnie meets a young man named Drake, who has known his entire life that he must protect this girl. Drake is a descendant of the ancient "Protectors of the Forest," who are determined to stop the prophecy at all costs. If Ronnie fulfills the prophecy to release the dwellers, the ritual that must be performed will kill her.
