The Discovery — Augustina Van Hoven

Karl Hansen's greatest skill—besides his ability to develop illegal concoctions—is his instinct for survival. So when his position as head chemist in a drug cartel looks like it might turn deadly, he goes on the lam. While working as a barista in a small Oregon town, Karl meets Avalyn. With one brief glance, he falls for her, fairy wings and all. And when she vanishes into the mist, he'll brave any danger to see her again.Saving fellow refugees—shifters, vampires, elves, and other supernatural beings—who have escaped their hidden magical world is all that matters to Avalyn of the Water Fae. But then she meets Karl. The Fae and humans don't mix. He'll die. She won't. But she cannot get him out of her mind. How much is she willing to risk for him and fleeting happiness only to spend the rest of her immortal life alone?
