Veil Touched (Thornwood Coven Series 6) - Paperback

by Jeanette Clarke (Author)

The thing about truth is that it doesn't flinch.

One misread word. That's all it took for truth-seer River Fern to stumble across an ancient summoning in Hazel's archive and pull a gargoyle through the veil between worlds.

Now an eight-foot stone guardian is in her apartment. Her space. Her life. He says she sees him-really sees him-for the first time in a thousand years. He's forgotten what touch feels like, but her hands make his stone soften to flesh. He builds a nest of her clothes, watches her with ancient silver eyes, and looks at her like she's the answer to every prayer he never dared whisper.

She's spent her whole life being told she's too intense. Too observant. Too much for anyone to handle.

He's spent centuries waiting for someone exactly like her.

The Conclave wants to contain him. Sever the bond. Make him a tool again instead of a person.

But the blood oath they swore under the full moon has other ideas.

One truth-seer. One forgotten gargoyle. One misread protection ward that changed everything.

What could possibly go wrong?
