Of The Heart - Solstice Series, #1

A maligned and shamed teenager transforms into our planet's only hope of salvation.

Blenkush pens an engaging story of sorrow, courage, and learning how to love by overcoming fear in the Solstice Series.  The first-person narrative features a young woman (Julissa) who is desperately trying to pick up the pieces of her shattered life after the death of her boyfriend and the disappearance of her father within a year's time. Amid hardship, Blenkush tightly weaves Julissa and Aaron's slow-building relation within an engaging plot. Replete with a well-developed quasi-dystopian cast, Blenkush manages to throw in light-hearted moments.  Of course of key interest—aside from Julissa and Aaron's budding romance, Blenkush spends a great deal of time incorporating within his plot historical information about the mysticism behind Mt. Shasta, the lost city of Telos, Mu (the cradle of mankind), and the Lemurians' connection with another lost city: Atlantis. Blenkush keeps his story constantly flowing by combining all of the above-mentioned literary elements, as well as including un-hackneyed scenarios and cliff-hanging chapter endings. A five-book epic tale, the Solstice Series offers fantasy romance aficionados a unique and unforgettable storyline.
