Torn Between Realms - Iris Gil

What if the night you almost died...was the beginning of everything?

Some fates are written in the stars. Others are dragged from the shadows.

Cece never imagined her night would take such a turn until two strangers shoved her onto the subway tracks with a train racing toward her. In the split second before impact, he reached for her, pulling her from death's grasp and into a world she never knew existed. Then... he vanished.

When Cece returns, more time has passed than should have, and something inside her has changed. The more she searches for her savior, the clearer the truth becomes: he isn't human.

And whatever is awakening within her isn't either.

Three laws. One choice. A love forbidden.

Lucien knows he's broken the sacred rules his kind is bound by: never interfere in mortal realms, never cross without sanction, never leave a trace. Now, the woman he can't imagine losing is changing, enemies are closing in, and the power that governs his world demands answers. To protect her, he must surrender who he was. To survive, she must embrace what she's becoming.

As war ignites, the love they were never meant to have may be the very thing that saves or destroys them both.

Torn Between Realms marks the beginning of the epic Awaken the Stars series-an interdimensional fantasy full of secret societies, unexpected twists, and a fate-defying love that reshapes the boundaries of what's possible. Perfect for fans of Crescent City and From Blood and Ash.
