Description
FAMILY SECRETS. PARALLEL WORLDS. FORBIDDEN LOVE.
Eighteen-year-old Alexa Moore has had enough of her rigid, controlled existence. Shortly after her graduation, she decides it’s time for her to make the decisions in her life, and quit letting her grandmother have the last say. But when she sees a man watching her—at her graduation, at the market, outside of where she volunteers—her excitement is snuffed out by a sense of dread she can’t shake. And that’s only the beginning…
Soon, strange things begin happening: doors opening by themselves, books falling off shelves. At first, Alexa ignores the bizarre occurrences, chalking them up to coincidence. But when things take a violent turn, she discovers that these occurrences aren’t coincidence at all. In fact, they’re all tied to one thing: her. It isn’t long before she realizes that telepathy and empathy are not the only abilities she possesses. And these new abilities—ones she cannot begin to explain—are growing in strength…becoming more and more dangerous.
Lost and confused, Alexa turns to her grandmother, the one person she trusts above all others, for help. But Gran isn’t who she appears to be, and Alexa finds herself embroiled in a family history that’s shrouded in mystery and lies, where no one, not even the young Irishman she’s fallen for, is who they seem.
Part romance, part thriller, and part fantasy, Piercing the Veil is Nicole L. Taylor’s premiere novel that is not to be missed.

Reviews:
"A very enjoyable and fun to read book! This is my first foray into this genre and was surprised and how much I liked it. The story had great character development, an interesting story, and good prose. A great book by a first time author. Looking forward to the next book!"
"A very well-written romantic fantasy for a YA or NA audience. The prose was clean and elegant; the characters well developed; the world wonderfully built. I loved the familial relationships between Alexa, Serge, Natasha and James, the parade of hot guys after Alexa, and the devious grandmother raising her army of powerful grandchildren with Alexa as the crown jewel. However, Gran doesn't count on Alexa growing to be more powerful than she can handle."
