Shadow Reaper

Shadow Reaper by Lynette Noni is a fast-paced YA fantasy that blends razor-sharp tension with swoony enemies-to-lovers romance, perfect for readers who like their magic dark and their stakes sky-high. In the city of Aravell, a lethal blackmist creeps closer each day, while reapers stalk the streets stealing magic from children to feed their power.

Seventeen-year-old Viridia Solace has spent years training to hunt the reapers—especially the Reaper Priest, the killer who tore her family apart. When Reeve Ashton, the Priest’s infamous follower, is captured, he offers Viri a deal that could bring her the vengeance she’s chased for so long. The catch? Trusting a charming criminal who always seems to be two steps ahead.

With a shadowy forest, an ancient legend, and a found family of thieves, this is ideal for fans of high-stakes action, morally grey characters, and slow-burn tension.

Step into Aravell and see what the blackmist is hiding.
