They thought he was a quiet, broken boy.
They didn't see the wings. Or the war he was born for.
Seventeen-year-old Elias has always been good at hiding. Hidden bruises, hidden truths, hidden power. After a lifetime of abuse, he's forced to attend school in the eerie town of Cannisborough, where everyone thinks he's just a shy, homeschooled transfer. Fragile. Forgettable. Easy to ignore.
Except Jace Ryland isn't like everyone else.
As Beta of the local werewolf pack, Jace knows better than to question his instincts-especially when something about Elias sets every nerve on edge. There's a connection he can't explain. A pull he doesn't understand. And when Elias is pushed too far by a cruel group of students, everything Jace thought he knew is obliterated.
Wings erupt from Elias's back.
Light cracks the sky.
And the forgotten blood of a celestial warrior begins to rise.
Elias isn't human. He's Nephilim-part angel, part mystery, and entirely dangerous. Now the veil between life and death is beginning to tear, ancient forces are awakening, and Cannisborough is no longer safe.
Everyone thought Elias was the victim.
They were wrong.
Perfect for fans of dark fantasy, slow-burn paranormal romance, and supernatural secrets, Where Shadows Fear to Tread is a gripping first book in a new series about identity, survival, and the divine power buried in broken things.
If you love forbidden bonds, protective shifters, and boys who burn brighter than fate allows-start reading now.
