Jillian Dangerous is back—and this time, the adventure is bigger than ever.

Still stranded in 1965 at Crest Academy after a mysterious storm transported her and her friends through time, Jillian is more determined than ever to find a way home. But between dangerous jungle field trips, rumors of a haunted mansion, and a flickering purple light that may hold the key to their return, the stakes are rising fast.

When a terrifying tiger encounter leads to a miraculous rescue, Jillian becomes convinced that God has a purpose for why they are in the past. Could saving her grandfather from a future tragedy be part of that plan? And if so, how can she change history without unraveling everything?

As secrets surface, faith is tested, and friendships are stretched, Jillian must learn the difference between reckless bravery and true courage. With mystery, danger, time-travel twists, and powerful moments of spiritual discovery, Jillian Dangerous and the Extraordinary Secret challenges readers to consider what it really means to trust God—even when the path home is uncertain.

Perfect for middle-grade readers who love suspense, heart, and unforgettable adventure.

Drawing from decades of counseling and mentoring males, the authors walk readers through the internal struggles young men commonly face:

• Identity
• Peer pressure
• Sexual temptation
• Anger
• Passivity
• Desire for approval

This practical and spiritually grounded guide to manhood is written especially for teenage boys and young men who are trying to figure out who they are and who they are meant to become. Rather than offering shallow cultural definitions of masculinity, this book presents manhood as a purposeful journey shaped by character, responsibility, and a growing relationship with God.

Bull also emphasizes that boys do not become men automatically; they become men through guidance, mentoring, and intentional decisions. For that reason, the book encourages fathers, mentors, and leaders to actively guide younger males, helping them understand responsibility, relationships, and faith. Ultimately, Smith presents real manhood not as dominance or toughness, but as strength under control — a life anchored in Christ, lived with purpose, and expressed through service to others.

Recommendation: Bull encourages fathers and mentors to guide young men through the process of discovering what it means to be a real man. At the end of each chapter, discussion questions are provided to encourage open and honest conversations between both generations about their thoughts, beliefs, and feelings.
