Across The Veil, (Paperback)

<p>Ethan Hale doesn't belong-not in his school, not in this town, and definitely not in the brittle shell of his once-happy family. When he's sent to live in his late grandfather's creaking house tucked between dense woods and forgotten roads, Ethan expects boredom. Instead, he finds a voice in the attic mirror. A boy's voice. From another time.</p><p>In the year 1675, Elias Blackthorne walks a fine line between silence and survival. His Puritan village is ruled by fear, suspicion, and the weight of unspoken history. He knows better than to trust outsiders-until one begins speaking to him from within the glass, his words strange and warm, his presence impossible to ignore.</p><p>As their voices cross centuries, so do their lives. Bound by loneliness, curiosity, and a growing affection neither can explain, Ethan and Elias begin to share a connection that transcends time itself. The more they reach for each other, the thinner the veil between their worlds becomes-along with the boundary between fate and danger.</p><p>But something ancient stirs in the dark of both timelines, and the past has teeth. To stay connected, Ethan must unravel a mystery buried for centuries, while Elias faces the rising fires of a village looking for someone to blame. What begins as a whisper becomes a reckoning-of love, truth, and the cost of holding on when time demands letting go.</p><p><i>Across the Veil</i> is a deeply atmospheric queer YA romance blending historical fantasy, supernatural mystery, and time travel drama into a story of forbidden love, hidden truths, and the courage it takes to be seen. Told in a dual timeline, this coming-of-age novel explores what it means to find hope in the unlikeliest places-and to love someone you may never be able to touch.</p>
