Mya meets Elin or Love meets Light is a spiritually inspired novel for young people aged 14 and up. Kate Rouse wanted to share ideas from her previous book, A Spiritual Handbook for the Modern Era, in a readable and memorable form which would appeal to a younger audience.

Mya is a troubled, 14-year-old girl who is experiencing bullying at school. She meets Elin, a lovely, wise woman, in the forest near her home. Elin becomes Mya's mentor as their friendship grows through frequent rendezvous. Elin teaches Mya about coping with difficulties and becoming spiritually aware. Different chapters represent various themes as each conversation becomes a lesson on topics such as nature and the world as it is.

Many young people may feel worthless and pessimistic at times. They may experience anxiety about their own lives and the current world situation. Mya meets Elin or Love meets Light has been written to give them some insight and hope when, at times, things may only seem bleak. The book is here to amplify love and light.
