Picture this: you're wandering the woods, camera in hand, when you lock eyes with a dangerously handsome stranger whose gaze chills you to the bone. That's Gemma's reality in Touched - The Caress of Fate, the first book in Elisa S. Amore's spellbinding Touched Saga. This isn't your average YA romance—it's a dark, pulse-pounding tale where love tangles with death in ways that'll keep you reading way past bedtime.
Hidden from human eyes lies a brutal struggle between good and evil for mortal souls. Subterraneans like Evan ferry the dead across realms, following orders without question. But everything changes when Evan spots Gemma. She's not on his list by accident, yet he can't bring himself to end her. Their connection feels predestined, pulling her into a shadowy underworld of Grim Reapers, vengeful witches, and ancient foes.
Evan falls first—and hardest. As a centuries-old soldier of death, he's never wavered before. Now, protecting Gemma means betraying his kind, dodging assassins dispatched to finish the job. Gemma, the bookish photographer with a quiet strength, finds herself wielding unexpected power in this supernatural showdown. Together, they navigate portals to dark realms, unravel prophecies, and question if love can truly rebel against fate.
Readers rave about the intoxicating mix of gothic romance and high-stakes fantasy. "Touched is one of the most endearing romantic books I've ever read... a truly spell-binding read," says USA TODAY bestselling author Siobhan Davis. It's topped Amazon charts, hit Goodreads lists for movie adaptations, and hooked fans of The Vampire Diaries, Twilight, and Shadowhunters.
