The Daughter of Light
An ordinary barista discovers her divine heritage in a battle between heaven and shadow
- Fantasy
Nora Vance-Kaldwin is used to the steady rhythm of life in Goshen, Indiana. Her biggest concerns are perfecting latte art and making rent—until a man with silver eyes delivers a message that shatters her reality. Gabriel claims she is the daughter of God. Nora thinks he’s delusional, until a creature of pure shadow corners her and she instinctively obliterates it with a burst of blinding golden light. Now, the quiet life she loved is over. Balthazar Grime, a fallen deity masking his malice behind a tailored suit, is hunting her. He doesn’t want her dead; he wants the celestial fire coursing through her veins. Caught between a divine destiny she never asked for and a human heart she refuses to surrender, Nora must rely on her best friend Malakai—who harbors secrets of his own—and Gabriel’s cryptic training. As Goshen falls under a supernatural shroud, Nora must decide if she will ascend to the heavens or fight for the home she loves. In a war where gods walk among men, the light is her only weapon, but her humanity is her greatest strength. Jenna Elliott delivers a high-stakes mythological fantasy where the girl next door becomes the world’s last hope.
