Saturday, April 24th, 2010

Jeanette Clinger Hurley’s newest children’s book lets its readers escape into a world of spellbinding adventures where kindness is king, the heart is mightier than the sword and love unlocks the key to all mystery and magic.

April 24, 2010 – Denver CO, and Provo, UT – World class singer, songwriter and now story teller Jeanette Clinger Hurley today announced the release of her enchanted children’s book, The Crystal Prince, Love Is the Only Way, published by Outskirts Press.  Through this charming fantasy Hurley brings children, parents and families the message that love is the way to everlasting happiness and that we all depend on each other to see that through.

In Hurley’s tale, Prince Xabian and his beautiful soul mate Jenevieve begin their courageous journey to vanquish the beastly Ganthites, only to find that battles are won with mercy and forgiveness, not weapons, and that love is the transformational miracle in life, and it is simple and it is pure.

Jenevieve is able to bring to the prince’s fragile and ailing heart the everlasting gifts of comfort, joy and peace in order to give him the strength to defuse the horrible anger of the Ganthites.  Prince Xabian demonstrates to them the unwavering kindness and unrelenting mercy necessary to overcome them as an enemy and leave in the wake only the miracle of forgiveness.
