Magestic Dreams — Karen Householder

Book One in the Magestic Trilogy tells the story of how one young girl explores the path between worlds that beckons from her dreams, and finds her rightful place in a realm of great beauty and power--though not without making a terrible sacrifice. Los Angeles teenager Emma McKenzie is on her way to Maine to live with her birth father for the first time. Years of terrifying nightmares and dreams of a magical land she calls “Magestic” can hardly prepare Emma for the truth she uncovers in Greenville. Emma is much more than your average 16-year-old struggling to fit in at a new school. In fact, she is far from normal. And so is Simon, the mysterious and handsome boy from the nearby Inn she falls in love with. As Emma gets to know her father and stepmother, and befriends local teens Mark, Sarah, and Sam, she is shocked to discover she has some rather unique abilities which may be put to the test to save Magestic. What Emma doesn't realize is that to save the world of her dreams, she may have to give up the one person she can't live without.
