Book 6 of 8 in the Crowns of Nyaxia Series

The Crowns of Nyaxia series by Carissa Broadbent is a dark romantasy epic spanning vampire houses under goddess Nyaxia's rule, filled with deadly tournaments, power grabs, and forbidden bonds in a world of blood magic and divine intrigue. The Nightborn Duet follows human-raised Oraya, adopted daughter of Night king Vincent, competing in the Kejari trials against ruthless warriors like enigmatic rival Raihn, forging a tense alliance amid betrayals, coups, and her shocking heritage reveal. Expanding to Shadowborn and Bloodborn duets, it weaves tales like thief Lilith bargaining with vampire Vale for cursed-town salvation, and others grappling with god-cursed plagues, ancient weapons like Reshaye, rival goddesses, and high-stakes romances testing loyalty in vampire courts. Themes of vengeance, sacrifice, and love's peril drive the six-book saga of political upheaval and monstrous threats.​
