{"product_id":"the-prophecy-2","title":"The Prophecy","description":"With three weeks left to earn a heka that reflects who she truly is—or be banished—a fifteen-year-old girl uncovers a buried prophecy and a truth that could bring down the kingdom...and cost her the life that makes her feel most alive.\n\nWhat do you do when the life they’ve planned for you feels empty—but the life you imagine could cost you everything?\nImani Drake has three weeks left to claim her heka—or be banished from the kingdom forever.\nAs the daughter of one of The Regent’s most powerful families, she’s expected to inherit her mother’s heka—a supernatural ability that determines purpose, power, and status. Her inheritance as Keeper of Secrets would secure her future, but at the cost of spying on citizens and protecting a monarchy she doesn’t believe in.\nImani refuses to accept a future that feels inauthentic. She wants to earn a heka of her own—one that mirrors the freedom and exhilaration she feels inside the Machine, a forbidden device that immerses her in high-stakes missions and sharpens her instincts.\nShe’s closer than ever to breaking free—when everything crashes down.\nWith just three weeks left until her sixteenth birthday—the final deadline to inherit or earn her heka—Imani fails again. Before she can try again, , a royal emergency erupts inside the palace, and in the chaos that follows, the king halts all heka assignments.\nNo more testing. No inheritance. No more chances.\nBanishment is now inevitable.\nUntil she finds another way.\nIf she can solve the mystery behind the royal emergency, the king might assign her a heka that reflects the life she’s imagined. But the deeper she digs, the more dangerous the truth becomes—and the more she realizes that what’s at stake is far greater than her own fate.\nTo survive, Imani must face her fears, trust her instincts, and fight for the life she’s imagined—before it’s too late to live it.\n\n©2024 Ashley Stewart Boyd.
