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.

I think I liked this one even more than The Serpent and The Wings of Night (which is saying something!)
This was such a cute little side Novella ❤️ I loved Vale and Lilith! I wonder if they might make a side appearance in the second book in the series. It gave a glimpse of what was happening while Oraya and Raihn were in the tournament also what the gods were capable of.
This was just novella perfection! It was the perfect length and pace, it wasn't trying to do too much, it fit everything in perfectly and I'm so interested to see how these two play into the main Crowns of Nyaxia books.
Six scorched roses is a novella set in the Crowns of Nyaxia world. We get to see another region and meet characters that will appear on the next installments of the series.
This was a great addition to the series and I am quite impressed with the depth Carrissa conveyed to the characters, their story and their romance in such a small length of pages.
As the first book of the series, I still think this series deserves more worldbuilding info dump.
