Description
Six Scorched Roses is a Beauty and the Beast-inspired romantasy set in the same world as Carissa Broadbent's The Serpent and the Wings of Night - perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Jennifer L. Armentrout.
Six roses. Six vials of blood. Six visits to a vampire who could be her salvation . . . or her damnation.
Lilith has been dying since the day she was born. But while she long ago came to terms with her own imminent death, the deaths of everyone she loves is an entirely different matter. As her town slowly withers in the clutches of a mysterious god-cursed illness, she takes matters into her own hands.
Desperate to find a cure, Lilith strikes a bargain with the only thing the gods hate even more than her village: a vampire, Vale. She offers him six roses in exchange for six vials of vampire blood - the one hope for her town's salvation.
But when what begins as a simple transaction gradually becomes something more, Lilith is faced with a terrifying realization: It's dangerous to wander into the clutches of a vampire . . . and in a place already suffering a god's wrath, more dangerous still to fall in love with one.
Six Scorched Roses is a standalone fantasy romance set in the world of the Crowns of Nyaxia series, perfect for those who love dark, romantic tales with bite.
About the Author
Carissa Broadbent has been concerning teachers and parents with mercilessly grim tales since she was roughly nine years old. Since then, her stories have gotten (slightly) less depressing and (hopefully a lot?) more readable. Today, she writes novels that blend epic fantasy plots with a heaping dose of romance. She lives with her husband, her son, one very badly behaved rabbit and one perpetually sceptical cat in Rhode Island.

An addictive enemies-to-lovers romance . . . Fans of dark romantasy won't want to miss this -- Publishers Weekly, Starred Review on The Serpent and the Wings of Night
Carissa Broadbent's The Serpent and the Wings of Night has all the fun of A Court of Thorns and Roses, but it will also appeal to Twilight fans because vampires are at the centre of the novel -- Insider
