"OMG I AM PRACTICALLY CRYING... AMAZING found family... So many secrets and twists and turns throughout-I straight up gasped and yelled out loud towards the end. I just couldn't put this book down." Goodreads reviewer ?????

Forbidden magic. A plague of demons. And a dangerous passion...

Zarya has always known she is dangerous. Raised in secret, she was trained to fight but ordered never to reveal her strange, shadowy magic.

Stealing a horse and fleeing the only life she's ever known, Zarya arrives in a dazzling marble city where demons prowl the streets.

When she joins the fight against the monsters, desire sparks with a powerful commander. But he's dangerous too - a blood-drinking immortal with a terrible secret.

And if he knew Zarya's true self, he would kill her in an instant.

As Zarya draws closer to uncovering the origin of her magic, the demons seem to grow bolder... Almost as if they're drawn to her.

Soon, she faces an impossible choice: can she unleash her abilities and save her new home, or will she be consumed by an ancient darkness...

A complete romantasy series perfect for fans of A Court of Thorns and Roses, Fourth Wing and The Serpent and the Wings of Night. Enter a glittering new world inspired by Indian mythology and prepare to discover your new obsession.

About the Author

Nisha J. Tuli is a Canadian romance author whose books feature kick-ass heroines, swoony love interests, and slow burns with plenty of heat. She loves to draw upon her Indian heritage to bring her stories to life, weaving together vibrant and compelling characters, settings, and plotlines.

Her novel Trial of the Sun Queen -the first in the Artefacts of Ouranos series-became a BookTok hit, thanks to her amazing fans. She's also the author of NSFW (Not Suitable for Work) , a workplace rivals to lovers rom-com publishing with Forever in 2025, and Heart of Night and Fire , a South Asian-inspired fantasy romance publishing with Second Sky in 2023.

Nisha wants to leave her readers breathless and begging for more, and enjoys making her characters suffer before giving them a much-deserved happily ever after. When she's not writing or reading, Nisha can be found enjoying travel, food, and camping with her partner, two kids, and their fluffy Samoyed.
