Nora Finch, a shy, observant university student and night-shift barista, lives a life of small comforts in Evershore. Kieran Lumen, an unseen fae who can only be perceived by those he is soul-bonded to, has been watching her for days-drawn to her sketches, her music, and the gentle steadiness she carries through the night. As subtle magic threads into Nora's ordinary world, the two are pulled toward a bond that will force both to confront rules, fear, and the tender work of trust. The story unfolds as a slow-burn romance with warm fantasy elements, focusing on protection, consent, and the sweetness of discovery. _______________________________________________________________ Nora Finch keeps her world small and steady. At twenty-two she balances lectures at Halloway University with overnight shifts at The Lantern & Ledger, sketchbook always at hand, freckles dusting the bridge of her nose, glasses perched when she studies. Her life is measured in quiet routines, late-night regulars, and the warm nicknames of people who have known her since childhood. Kieran Lumen has watched her from the rain-soaked alleys of Evershore. A fae-like guardian whose kind remains invisible to ordinary humans unless soul-bonded, he has no right to interfere-only to protect. Yet the more he watches Nora, the more the rules fray around the edges of his restraint. He is taller than her, patient, and gently fierce in ways she cannot perceive. When small, uncanny things begin to follow Nora home-an ember of warmth in her sketchbook, a light that lingers at the edge of vision-Kieran must decide whether to remain the unseen sentinel or risk everything to become the visible shelter she never knew she needed. Slow and tender, Lumen of the Hidden is a romantasy about quiet courage, the soft insistence of love, and the way two souls learn to make each other visible. _______________________________________________ When only the bonded can see, love becomes the light that makes the unseen visible.

Ivana Meredith Cox, a lively girl and an extremely talented barista who runs a small, beautiful cafe in Phoenix, trying to move on from her father's death. All she wants is to lay low, go to college and lead a quiet, peaceful life without people bringing up her painful past. The last thing she wants in her life is more trouble but that's exactly what she gets. Trouble that is, Ace Newman, a mysterious, platinum-haired boy who's always surrounded with rumours and seems to be troubled by a haunting past. He's been termed as the infamous delinquent of the city, his reputation tainted regardless of where he goes. There's little that people know about him and so much more that they don't. Ivana knows that Ace isn't half as bad as people make him out to be. What she doesn't know, though, is that he wants his true past to be revealed just as much as she doesn't want hers to be. Perhaps, an unreasonable addiction to caffeine mixed with an unexpected dose of adventure and sarcasm is exactly what the two need for the sparks to fly. ~EXCERPT~ "Your money." He spoke. "And stop staring. It's creepy as fvck." Scowling, I took the money and gave him the receipt. "No swearing in here, please." "Your words always present an irony to your expressions." He mused. "I like that." "Look uh...Mister, no need to act all friendly. I've got better stuff to do than to waste my time interacting with you." "The name's Ace." He drawled and I scowled yet again. "What makes you think I'd be interested?" "They always are." He smirked, shrugging and grabbing his coffee turned to leave. ~~~ Author's note: This is not your cliche bad boy good girl story and I highly suggest you give the book a chance :D Highest Rank: #42 in delinquent
