Crown of Moonlight and Silver by OdetteLavelle

Artemis carries a secret powerful enough to reshape the fate of the realms. Hunted by a relentless elven tracker and a charming rogue, she must navigate the treacherous Veilwood-an ancient forest where the boundaries of reality twist like threads in a loom. But Artemis is no ordinary fugitive. The fragment she guards hums with forgotten magic, calling her toward a destiny she never asked for. As the three uneasy allies journey deeper into the unknown, they are stalked not only by those who would claim the fragment but by creatures born of nightmares-beasts drawn to the power Artemis barely understands. With danger closing in and the weight of the past pressing heavier with each step, trust becomes as fragile as the secrets they keep. But the Veilwood does not shelter the weak. And as the echoes of a shattered crown stir once more, Artemis will have to decide: run from the truth, or embrace the power that could unravel them all.

The Veil - Realm of the Fae by IamRSHart

Every myth hides a story-and every story holds a truth. What if that truth finds you? Clara Valenwood never expected her life to change after her 21st birthday. But when her dad sends her a family heirloom-a pendant passed down for generations-everything begins to shift. Then come the shadows. The attack. And a glowing portal that throws Clara and her best friend Malrik into a world she didn't think was real-the fae realm. There, magic is real, danger is everywhere, and nothing feels safe... except maybe Ashael, the quiet, distant fae warrior with secrets in his eyes. And Malrik-fierce, familiar, and suddenly more than just a friend. Caught between two hearts and a war she doesn't understand, Clara must uncover the truth behind a forgotten prophecy and choose who she wants to be... and who she's willing to love. Because the veil between worlds is breaking. And love might be what saves them all-or shatters everything.
