Autumn Winters (Realm Watchers Book 1): A Veil Witch Urban Fantasy (The Realm Watchers)

Overall Content Rating: Parents Strongly Cautioned PG-13
This urban-fantasy novel follows a young woman after a near-fatal crash who discovers inherited supernatural abilities and becomes involved in protecting people from otherworldly threats. The tone is often tense and mature: ghosts, dimensions, and family secrets drive the plot more than romance or explicit content. Parents should expect steady moderate profanity and occasional strong language in dialogue, plus supernatural and physical danger including blood, a crash, and a few sharper violent beats. Sexual content is limited to non-graphic mention of assault fear and criminal behavior; there is no depicted sexual activity. Several reader notes recommend it for older teens and adults who want fantasy without explicit sex.

About this book
Autumn Winters has a secret that could get her killed. She just doesn't know she's keeping it. Autumn Winters can suddenly see into another world, one full of supernatural beings that can't possibly exist. But another window has opened within her, bringing memories of when her sister also displayed magical abilities. That was just before her sister went missing, and she hasn't been seen since. Autumn believes there must be a connection between what's happening to her now and what happened years ago. Determined to discover the truth, she sets out with the mysterious private investigator, Ian, to track down who was behind her sister’s disappearance.
