Synopsis The Diary of Payton Wren by : Julie Parker

When Logan McCullough asks Payton Wren to join him in exploring an ancient tunnel beneath his house, how could she possibly say no? Logan has been the love of Payton’s life since meeting him three years ago at her cottage in Trent, and she would gladly follow him anywhere. Or so she thought… Beneath the town of Trent, unbeknownst to its inhabitants, is a labyrinth of tunnels stretching not only across town, but also across time and space. When Payton and Logan finally stumble out, they find themselves to be in what resembles medieval times. As they try to find their way home, Payton discovers that she has the ability to heal with her touch. An ability much coveted by an evil lord who will risk anything to have her do his bidding. As the pair journey through this mysterious land they discover the power of friendship, loyalty and trust. But most of all, the power of their love.
