Book one of The Veil of Danu Series 
Spice 🌶️ Adventure ⚔️⚔️⚔️ 
In a world divided by the fragile balance between light and wildness, the Seelie and Unseelie fae have lived in uneasy harmony for centuries, separated from humanity by the magical Veil of Danu. But when an ambitious Seelie usurper seizes the throne and plunges the realms into chaos, the ancient order begins to unravel. The sacred Well of Creation is lost, the World Tree withers, and magic itself begins to fade.

Rowan, a young human park ranger, is swept into this unraveling world after a flood pulls her through a hidden fairy ring deep in the Appalachian mountains. Trapped in a medieval fae realm teetering on the brink of destruction, she becomes entangled in the struggle between the warring fae courts and discovers a secret that ties her to their crumbling magic.

As monsters rise, fae lands fall into ruin, and humanity faces invasion, Rowan must navigate a dangerous path to uncover the Veil's secrets, heal the broken magic, and choose where her loyalties truly lie. But even as hope flickers, the darkness lurking in her blood threatens to tear her apart-and with it, the fate of both fae and human worlds.

A tale of love, betrayal, and the wild power of ancient magic, The Veil of Danu is a journey into the heart of a forgotten myth where heroes are forged, and balance comes at the steepest price.
