Six Scorched Roses (Crowns of Nyaxia)

Product Information

Raihn saw the potential in Oraya and not just a broken half human and helped her to seize her power. Oraya saw his loneliness and how he fought each day of his life and how he is the most thoughtful and loving person. The Ashes and the Star-Cursed King is the sequel to the Serpent and the Wings of Night and the last born in the Nightborn Duet, although it is part of a larger series (the Crowns of Nyaxia). Without any spoilers, this book follows Oraya and Raihn as they battle the enemies surrounding them on all sides, face traitors and deadly plots to overthrow the throne- and must figure out their complicated feelings for each other.... Starting with the characters- I LOVE THEM ❤️❤️ I feel like we've gone on such a journey with them even in only 2 books and I've grown to love them smm 😩 I really enjoyed seeing more of them and especially seeing their character development after what happened at the end of TSTWON.

Raihn. My downfall and my most valuable supporter. My weakness and my strength. My worst enemy and the greatest love I had ever known.' i can't wait for Mische's story (i think it's almost guaranteed that it's gonna be Mische's? and I NEED IT gimme gimme gimme) I adored watching them finally put their cards on the table and face each other for real, without masks or secret agendas, and go from enemies to allies to more, again. I loved the romance between Oraya and Raihn, they fought for each other and understood each other. The chemistry and sexual tension was amazing! The slow burn was so good and I loved their banter. There were so many steamy scenes that had me blushing and smiling! I get asked this a lot! Right now, there are four books published in the Nyaxia world — books 1 and 2, plus two standalones.

I dream about that sound.” His mouth was so close to my throat. I could feel his voice vibrate on my flesh, right against the scar that he’d left. “Do you know that?” The Serpent and the Wings of Night – The first book in the main Crowns of Nyaxia Series is a good introduction to the world.

If I had to actually point out the main complain I have with this - which is also the reason why I ended up giving this 4 and a half start (albeit rounded up to five), I'd go with the truth and tell you that I found the last conflict a little too rushed, which ended up feeling anticlimatic. But there’s no room for compassion in the Kejari. War for the House of Night brews, shattering everything that Oraya thought she knew about her home. And Raihn may understand her more than anyone – but their blossoming attraction could be her downfall, in a kingdom where nothing is more deadly than love. I would take a dagger over Raihn’s hands—would rather feel a blade than his fingertips brushing my skin, far too gently. If I had to badly describe this book, which I will to you now, I would refer to the vibe being a mix of The Beauty and The Beast retelling meets The Love Hypothesis but Adam is a vampire and Olive has more self-confidence. I loved this book, I didn't think it was quite as good as the first book though but only because I thought there was some redundant storylines, And the pacing could have been a little tighter in my opinion. While I didn't struggle to place a rating, I did struggle about whether or not to rate up or down and ultimately the answer was up and can be explained with one name, which I will get to later. But I also never highlighted a book as much as this one, so many beautiful quotes and the writing was stunning. The action scenes in these books are always heart pounding and expertly written. I also really loved the side characters and all the surprises we got from Oraya's past. AND THE LOVE STORY!!! GAH!!! 🫠The plot was well balanced, with the right amount of action and all the missing lore we didn't get in book one. The twists were a little predictable (the wing thing was so cool, though), but I enjoyed myself nonetheless.

A novella set within the world of Nyaxia, this story focused on Lilith and how her encounter with Vale, a vampire set off a chain reaction all from a deal she made with him. With the town Lilith grew up in having succumbed to a deadly disease, everyone was dying, and it seemed like nothing would be able to save everyone. Until, Lilith took it upon herself to seek out Vale and make him an offer that would ensure she’d get what she needed to help save those closest to her. With a deal made of offering six roses in exchange for six vials of Vale’s blood, Lilith and Vale were now in agreement of it. This novella kind of gave me, “Beauty and the Beast” vibes in the way that Vale was a reclusive vampire who was also kind of a grump, and Lilith was an intelligent woman willing to do anything to find a cure. The details mentioned in this novella would later prove to be significant so, I was more than ready to read this story and see what happened between Lilith and Vale.I also loved Vale from his first entrance. Looks like Rhain has some competition on my agenda :))) Immortality does come with boredom and a lot of curiosity. I loved the dedication he put into helping Lilith, and also the chance he gave himself. But with enemies closing in on all sides, nothing is as it seems. As she unravels her past and faces her future, Oraya finds herself forced to choose between the bloody reality of seizing power – and the devastating love that could be her downfall. i highly highly recommend this entire duet, because the writing, the characters, the plot and VINCENT my love are what made this so different from other fantasies. 💗 You and I are the same. There is no one I would rather have ruling this kingdom beside me than you."
