THE UNSEEN HOUR
Her country is cursed, her father is missing, and she’s falling for a ghost.
In Emrys, no one celebrates the end of the year. They lock their doors and hide, hoping to escape the Unseen Hour with their lives intact. Celia knows she should hide with them, but when chance leads her to a long-forgotten journal, the author’s words awaken not only unfamiliar desire, but also the hope that she might finally find her father.
Celia enters a realm of death expecting darkness and a vengeful god. What she finds is Orion, the author of the journal that stole her heart. The man is closed off, secretive, and surprisingly charming. What starts as an uneasy alliance between them soon develops into a romance Celia believed lived only in her fantasies.
Trapped together in a dangerous but bewitching place, they must face threats hidden within their surroundings, the shadows of their past, and the power of warring gods if they want to break a curse and save their world.
The Unseen Hour is a gothic-inspired fantasy romance for fans of forbidden realms, sacrificial love, and mortals standing against gods.
About the Author
Reames has been penning short stories and book ideas for years. At the onset of the pandemic in 2020 she naively thought “I’ve got two weeks at home without work, seems like the perfect time to start that novel I’ve been putting off”. That two weeks out to be a lot longer. Her day job was busier than ever, but the desire to write remained. Reames completed several manuscripts and sent them off to her (beloved and appreciated) beta readers and editor.
​
As an avid reader her entire life whose favorite place to go was her local library growing up, she read an eclectic array of books. She writes eclectically as well. Under her Silas pen name readers dive into the world of Never, a 400 year old werewolf with a penchant for the meaning behind names and a taste for vengeance. Under her Sydney pen name she’s written a young adult science fantasy book trilogy.
Reames lives with her husband and two dogs: Merlin the magnificent tri-pawd, and Henry. They currently reside in the midwest but have moved several places across the USA. When not writing, Reames enjoys swimming, reading, overthinking things, and daydreaming about travel. While working on her books, Reames’s dogs often snuggle up close to her as she listens to music, drinks too much coffee, and tries to transfer whole worlds from inside her head to the page.
