Some shadows don't just hide in the dark. They reach back.
Twenty-two-year-old artist Elara Vance has always felt the world too deeply. Burdened with the Mortal Echo-an intuitive sight that translates human emotions into vibrant, overwhelming auras-she lives a quiet, carefully guarded life in Boston just to quiet the noise.
Then she crosses paths with Lucius Caldwell.
Lucius is the enigmatic, obscenely wealthy owner of an exclusive Newbury Street art gallery. To the mortal eye, he is a masterpiece of devastating, unapproachable charm. But to Elara's Echo, he is a terrifying paradox: a suffocating, apocalyptic void of obsidian and gold, masking an ancient, fathomless sorrow. Every instinct screams at her to run from the freezing, magnetic pull of his existence.
Instead, she steps into the dark.
But Lucius is not merely a brooding billionaire with dark moods. He is the Lightbringer. A fallen king exiled to the dust of Earth, enduring millennia of bitter isolation to hide from a celestial cold war. He knows his darkness will inevitably corrupt her fragile human light, yet he is utterly, agonizingly incapable of staying away.
By touching his world, Elara has inadvertently painted a target on her own soul. Now, the fragile veil hiding the supernatural underbelly of Boston is tearing apart. Hunted by rogue demons demanding their king's return, monitored by ruthless Archangels enforcing ancient laws, and stalked by the Authority's most lethal apex predator, Elara is thrust into a hidden, violent reality where the stakes are eternal.
Caught in the crossfire between the terrifying, all-consuming passion of a fallen monster desperate to protect her, and the safe, comforting light of a celestial soldier offering her a way out, Elara must make an impossible choice.
Is a love forged in the abyss worth burning for?
Perfect for fans of Twilight, Fallen, and Hush, Hush, The Mortal Echo: Veiled Gaze is a breathtaking, slow-burn paranormal romance about the devastating power of empathy, the burden of immortality, and a love so fierce it defies the laws of heaven and hell.
