Synopsis Veiled Magic by : Deborah Blake

A spellbinding new novel from the author of the Baba Yaga novels. Since Witches came out of the broom-closet in the early 21st century, they have worked alongside humans as police officers, healers, stock traders, and more. But they aren’t the only paranormal entities in our world... Police officer and Witch Donata Santori spends her days interrogating dead witnesses by summoning their spectral forms. Normally the job is little more than taking statements and filing reports. But when she’s called in on the case of a murdered art restorer, she finds herself suddenly in possession of a mystical portrait that both the human and paranormal communities would kill to get their hands on. Unable to take on the forces hunting her alone, Donata seeks help from two unlikely and attractive allies: a reluctant shape-changer and a half-dragon art forger. But as the three of them hurry to uncover the truth about the powerful painting, Donata realizes that she’s caught in the middle of not one but two wars—one for possession of the painting’s secrets and one for possession of her heart... Includes an exclusive preview of the next Baba Yaga novel, Wickedly Powerful. Praise for Deborah Blake and her novels “Paranormal romance at its best.”—Alex Bledsoe, author of Long Black Curl “Wonderfully imaginative.”—Harlequin Junkie “Fast-paced and addicting.”—Fresh Fiction

Synopsis Veiled Magic by : C.L. Carhart

Swanie discovered her ice magic not long ago. To protect herself and her people, her mentors trained her to hide it away from the world. But when her classmate faces brutal bullying, Swanie can’t just sit back and watch it happen. Not when she has the power to stop it. Vreni heard tales of Teutonic folklore during her childhood, but she never thought a wintry witch would arise out of nowhere and come to her aid. Doesn’t that sort of thing happen only in fairytales? A realm of magic and mystery lurks just beyond Vreni’s reach—and now she’s indebted to a Teuton witch. *VEILED MAGIC is a story of friendship and romance set during the timeline of ARCANE GATEWAY, the first book in His Name Was Augustin series. This story has a HEA and can be read on its own, though it is best enjoyed alongside the main series. **Reader Discretion: This book is recommended for adults due to profanity, sexual situations, and bullying.

Synopsis The Veil by : Chloe Neill

A brand new series from New York Times bestselling author Chloe Neill. Seven years ago, the Veil that separates humanity from what lies beyond was torn apart, and New Orleans was engulfed in a supernatural war. Now, those with paranormal powers have been confined in a walled community that humans call the District. Those who live there call it Devil's Isle. Claire Connolly is a good girl with a dangerous secret: she’s a Sensitive, a human endowed with magic that seeped through the Veil. Claire knows that revealing her skills would mean being confined to Devil’s Isle. Unfortunately, hiding her power has left her untrained and unfocused. Liam Quinn knows from experience that magic makes monsters of the weak, and he has no time for a Sensitive with no control of her own strength. But when he sees Claire using her powers to save a human under attack—in full view of the French Quarter—Liam decides to bring her to Devil’s Isle and the teacher she needs, even though getting her out of his way isn’t the same as keeping her out of his head. As more and more Sensitives fall prey to their magic, and unleash their hunger on the city, Claire and Liam must work together to save New Orleans, or else the city will burn…

Synopsis The Nephilim Guardians of the Veil by : AQEEL AHMED

The Nephilim Guardians of the Veil" The guardians of Nephilim keep the curtain between realms intact, but as it starts to fall apart, they face their toughest task yet. In Summary: The mythical story "The Nephilim Guardians of the Veil" takes place in a universe with two worlds: our own and a magical realm full of magic and wonder. There is a veil between this world and the other one that keeps them both balanced and in peace. These Nephilim are very strong beings that can control the elements, and their job is to keep this important barrier safe. Their careful watching keeps both realms safe by blocking the flow of magic into the human realm and keeping magical beings away. The peace of this coexistence is broken when the curtain suddenly starts to thin, showing a small but noticeable crack. Predators are drawn to this surprising weakness, which could upset the delicate balance between the magical and human realms. Strange and strange creatures come out of the crack, scaring and confusing people and pointing out a major problem for the Nephilim. A group of three young Nephilim—Aiden, Lina, Theo, and Zara—are given their biggest task yet. They are sent on a mission to find out why the veil is breaking down and fix it. The guardians each have skills in one of the four elements: air, water, fire, and earth. Their journey is full of challenges that will test their bravery, their abilities, and their bond as a group. They will have to go through beautiful, dark woods, cross rivers that whisper doubts, and climb mountains that represent their worst fears. It turns out that the Nephilim Guardians of the Veil are more than just guardians of the balance between worlds. They are also lasting symbols of hope and strength, ready to face any new problems with the same unwavering commitment and unity. The guards learn that their greatest strength is not in their individual skills, but in their unity as a group. They are able to get past problems and face the beast responsible for the veil's destruction thanks to their friendship and shared determination. Finally, the fact that they were able to fix the veil and defeat the beast shows how important courage is, how strong unity is, and how powerful cooperation is. Chapter 1: The Oath of the Guardians. The Nephilim Guardians were a separate group that lived in a world full of mysteries and wonders. These guards were not ordinary people; they were strong beings with amazing abilities. Every one of them could control one of the four elements, which were air, water, fire, and earth. They were put together in this group because they are brave, strong, and committed to keeping others safe. The veil, which was more than just a curtain or a piece of cloth, was an invisible wall between our world and a magical land full of magic, mysterious forests, and hidden secrets. It was their main job to keep it safe. It was beautiful in this realm, but its creatures would be dangerous if they were allowed to roam openly on human land. The Nephilim Guardians made a promise to protect the veil with their lives, fight any force that tried to destroy it, and keep the peace between the worlds no matter what. This promise was more than just a promise; it was a deep commitment that bound them to the veil and to each other. Like a well-balanced orchestra, the guardians lived in harmony with each other. Each watched over a different part of the screen to make sure there were no holes or breaks. They practiced hard, getting better at what they could do and building up their skills so they could handle anything. They spent their whole lives doing this job and were always on the lookout for any sign of trouble. They knew that even the smallest hole in the veil could let creatures from the magical realm into our world and scare and confuse people who weren't used to seeing them. It was clear that the guardians were strong because they worked together to achieve a shared goal and were never lonely because they had each other. The magical beings on the other side of the veil respected and thanked them, too. They knew how important the guards' job was and often helped them out when they needed it. The guardians took care of these riches and made sure that the magic from the other realm didn't get in the way of ours. In a way, they were the unsung heroes who kept the balance that let both worlds grow. Their story was about being brave, making sacrifices, and how friendship and trust can last a lifetime. They lived in a world where magic and truth lived together, and the magical realm was just beyond the veil. Chapter 2: A hole in the curtain. A small, almost unnoticeable hole appeared in the veil, the magical wall that separated the human world from a realm full of magic and wonder. Once upon a time, the Nephilim Guardians watched over this peaceful world. The guardians saw right away that this small crack was a cause for worry. They had sharp eyes and minds. They had always known that their main job was to protect this barrier, which was the link between two very different worlds. The break came out of nowhere, but it also showed that the barrier that had been there for hundreds of years could be broken. The guards gathered around the crack and carefully looked at it while discussing the best way to close it. But before they could come up with a plan, something even scarier happened: a small opening let strange creatures from the magical realm into the human world. These beings weren't bad, but they weren't supposed to be in our world either. Their strange habits and magical abilities fit in perfectly in their own world, but here they were, their actions were misunderstood, and they often caused confusion. In a world where magic was common, these creatures didn't understand how people lived. Some, like the sneaky pixies, couldn't help but play tricks on people who were easy to fool. Others, like the glowing will-o'-wisps, led people into the woods, where they thought it was all a game. And then there were the gentle but awkward giants, whose steps made people tremble, spreading fear and rumors of earthquakes. All of these events, even though they weren't meant to hurt anyone, made people feel even more uneasy and confused. These events were having an effect on the animals, even though they were magically skilled, they had no idea what kind of world they were in, and their actions, which were meant to be funny or just part of their nature, were making people feel bad. They saw the fear in people's eyes, the chaos caused by the magical creatures' good intentions, and the chance that this small crack would destroy the peace they had worked so hard to keep. The guardians knew they had to act quickly to restore peace and make sure the veil was fixed so that no one else could cross it. But this situation gave them a new challenge: they had to figure out how to fix the veil crack while also gently leading the lost creatures back to their realm. It took a lot of patience, understanding, and knowledge about both the human and magical worlds to do this job. The guardians felt more responsible for the worlds they protected and more connected to them as they worked to fix the crack and help the creatures get back home. When there was a hole in the veil, it taught them a lesson by showing them how quickly the balance they swore to protect could be broken. It also showed how important it is to understand and care about nonhuman beings when dealing with them.
