Page McRae just landed a coveted fellowship at the galaxy’s biggest library—an ancient archive of lost knowledge, buried secrets, and maybe even answers about her own strange powers. She’s here to research, not get distracted.
Then she discovers the monster hiding in the archive.
Hidden in the library’s darkest wing, the Obscuary houses more than forgotten tomes—it’s home to Thorne Valtheris, a reclusive, silver-eyed alien vampire haunted by the fall of his empire. He’s cold, deadly, and definitely off-limits.
Too bad Page has never been good at following rules.
Their attraction is instant. Their connection? Impossible to ignore. But Thorne is keeping dangerous secrets, and Page’s powers are growing faster than she can control. The deeper they’re pulled into each other’s orbit, the harder it becomes to deny what’s building between them.
Set in a sprawling alien archive full of magic, mystery, and moth-bitten romance, The Alien in the Archive is a slow-burn sci-fi fantasy perfect for fans
