Publisher Description
I always knew I was different.
From a young age, my mind has been plagued with things only I could see. Some hauntingly beautiful, others completely terrifying. Never knowing if these visions were real or just hallucinations, I learned how to lock them down and ignore them. I learned to take solace in the relative anonymity of city life and find peace in the rainy days my city of Seattle is known for.
But just when I think my life is getting on track and my dreams are achievable, a moment of weakness causes me to learn a hard and fast lesson.
My entire existence has been a lie.
Now I’m faced with a new reality that’s as implausible as it is fantastical. Filled with realms and veils, light and dark, fae and daemons, gods and angels—things I don’t understand but am forced to acknowledge. It doesn’t help that the man teaching me about my unique gifts is the gorgeously handsome Carrick Byrne, one of Seattle’s richest and most powerful men. He intimidates, annoys, and intrigues me all at the same time. I don’t trust him and yet there’s no one else to help me.
No longer certain who to put my faith in, what to believe, or how I fit into it all, one revelation is clear…
The world as I know it will never be the same again.
The Revelation of Light and Dark is book one of the Chronicles of the Stone Veil series and is best enjoyed if read in series order.

Wowzers!
It took a few chapters for me to really get into this story, and boy, did I ever. Finley Porter saw things that no other human could see, spending her life believing she had mental health issues. Carrick Byrne discovers her abilities, and all of a sudden the woman he disliked immensely has become a personal interest. Dark fae, light fae, daemons, Gods, oh, and don’t forget the secrets, lots of secrets. Lots to keep the reader on their toes. I could NOT put this book down, I was 100% invested in both Finley and Carrick, which is funny because they were not invested in each other in any way, shape or form. There was zero trust in their non relationship, yet I was rooting for them to both get some/any romantic notions. There was none, nada, nothing. All this making the story much more intriguing, interesting, and addictive. Two people drawn to each other for selfish reasons, I loved these guys, so much to learn from each other.
Be warned, it’s book 1 in a 5 books series, and it does end in a bit of a cliffie. It’s left me wanting, to say the least. I cannot wait for book 2. I received an advanced copy of this book. This is my honest review.
