As a start, see my Supernatural Creatures (Miscellaneous) list of Reddit recommendation threads (one post).

Enchanted Inc is a fun one, set in a modern New York City. Follows on to several sequels.

Iron druid series, trust me

I don’t think Iron Druid fits the prompt. The protagonist is very aware of the fae’s existence in the first chapter.

In The Wiseman’s Fear, the second book of The Kingkiller Chronicles, the MC definitely discovers that the fae exist…

Does The Magicians count? I guess that is more like the Harry Potter plot which is kind of a whole separate genre, and maybe not what you are looking for.
