A Shadow in the Ember
2021
Born shrouded in the veil of the Primals, a Maiden as the Fates promised, Seraphena Mierel’s future has never been hers. Chosen before birth to uphold the desperate deal her ancestor struck to save his people, Sera must leave behind her life and offer herself to the Primal of Death as his Consort.
However, Sera’s real destiny is the most closely guarded secret in all of Lasania—she’s not the well protected Maiden but an assassin with one mission—one target. Make the Primal of Death fall in love, become his weakness, and then…end him. If she fails, she dooms her kingdom to a slow demise at the hands of the Rot.
Sera has always known what she is. Chosen. Consort. Assassin. Weapon. A specter never fully formed yet drenched in blood. A monster. Until him. Until the Primal of Death’s unexpected words and deeds chase away the darkness gathering inside her. And his seductive touch ignites a passion she’s never allowed herself to feel and cannot feel for him. But Sera has never had a choice. Either way, her life is forfeit—it always has been, as she has been forever touched by Life and Death.

A Light in the Flame
2022
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout comes book two in her Flesh and Fire series…
The only one who can save Sera now is the one she spent her life planning to kill.
The truth about Sera’s plan is out, shattering the fragile trust forged between her and Nyktos. Surrounded by those distrustful of her, all Sera has is her duty. She will do anything to end Kolis, the false King of Gods, and his tyrannical rule of Iliseeum, thus stopping the threat he poses to the mortal realm.
Nyktos has a plan, though, and as they work together, the last thing they need is the undeniable, scorching passion that continues to ignite between them. Sera cannot afford to fall for the tortured Primal, not when a life no longer bound to a destiny she never wanted is more attainable than ever. But memories of their shared pleasure and unrivaled desire are a siren’s call impossible to resist.
And as Sera begins to realize that she wants to be more than a Consort in name only, the danger surrounding them intensifies. The attacks on the Shadowlands are increasing, and when Kolis summons them to Court, a whole new risk becomes apparent. The Primal power of Life is growing inside her, pushing her closer to the end of her Culling. And without Nyktos’s love—an emotion he’s incapable of feeling—she won’t survive her Ascension. That is if she even makes it to her Ascension and Kolis doesn’t get to her first. Because time is running out. For both her and the realms.

A Fire in the Flesh
2023
From #1 New York Times bestselling author Jennifer L. Armentrout comes book three in her Flesh and Fire series…
The only thing that can save the realms now is the one thing more powerful than the Fates.
After a startling betrayal ends with both Sera and the dangerously seductive ruler of the Shadowlands she has fallen madly in love with being held captive by the false King of the Gods, there is only one thing that can free Nyktos and prevent the forces of the Shadowlands from invading Dalos and igniting a War of Primals.
Convincing Kolis won’t be easy, though – not even with a lifetime of training. While his most favored Revenant is insistent that she is nothing more than a lie, Kolis’s erratic nature and twisted sense of honor leave her shaken to the core, and nothing could’ve prepared her for the cruelty of his Court or the shocking truths revealed. The revelations not only upend what she has understood about her duty and the very creation of the realms but also draw into question exactly what the true threat is. However, surviving Kolis is only one part of the battle. The Ascension is upon her, and Sera is out of time.
But Nyktos will do anything to keep Sera alive and give her the life she deserves. He’ll even risk the utter destruction of the realms, and that’s exactly what will happen if he doesn’t Ascend as the Primal of Life. Yet despite his desperate determination, their destinies may be out of their hands.
But there is that foreseen unexpected thread—the unpredictable, unknown, and unwritten. The only thing more powerful than the Fates…

Born of Blood and Ash. Nata da sangue e cenere Vol.1
Flesh and Fire Series # 4
2025
IL CONFINE TRA AMORE E OSSESSIONE NON È MAI STATO COSÌ NETTO. E QUELLO TRA GIUSTIZIA E VENDETTA NON È MAI STATO TANTO LABILE.
Sera è finalmente libera da Kolis ed è tornata da coloro che le vogliono bene, eppure i ricordi di ciò che ha passato continuano a perseguitarla, anche ora che finalmente può sperare in un futuro con l’altra metà del suo cuore e della sua anima. Nyktos l’ama, la desidera e la accetta senza riserve, e non dubita che sia adatta a essere la Regina degli Dei, ma Sera deve trovare quella stessa fiducia dentro di sé, se vuole convincere le altre Corti a sostenerla contro Kolis per rendere Iliseum e il regno mortale luoghi migliori e più sicuri per tutti.
Così, mentre insieme cominciano a radunare gli altri Primordiali per scoprire chi ha intenzione di giurare fedeltà a loro e chi invece intende schierarsi con Kolis, Sera non può fare
altro che chiedersi se il sentimento che la lega a Nyktos riuscirà a impedirle di perdersi, o se il loro legame verrà travolto malgrado tutto dall’emergere di nuovi poteri e forze che sembrano incontrollabili.
L’APPASSIONANTE STORIA DI SERAPHENA E NYKTOS CONTINUA NEL VOLUME 2
"Ash mi baciò. E, dei, fu un bacio che mi fece tremare, bellissimo e selvaggio, ma allo stesso tempo infinitamente tenero. Un altro di quei baci che esprimevano un amore immenso. Poi appoggiò la fronte alla mia; aveva il respiro accelerato. «L’ultima volta che siamo stati qui ti ho detto che la tua bellezza mi toglieva il respiro.» Mi mise una mano a coppa sulla guancia. «Ed è ancora vero, anzi lo è persino di più. Ma a conquistarmi sul serio sono stati il tuo coraggio e la tua forza. Quello che devi fare ora, puoi devi solo avere fiducia in questo.» Mi sfiorò la guancia con il pollice. «Fiducia in te stessa.»"

Born of Blood and Ash. Nata da sangue e cenere Vol.2
Flesh and Fire Series # 4
2025
«INCHINATEVI A LEI, CHE È NATA DAL SANGUE E DALLA CENERE, CHE È LA LUCE E IL FUOCO, LA PIÙ SPLENDENTE TRA LE LUNE, LA VERA PRIMORDIALE DELLA VITA E LA REGINA DEGLI DEI E DEGLI ESSERI UMANI.»
La resa dei conti è cominciata. Mentre Sera cerca di ricostruire l’importanza della sua linea di sangue e il vero significato dietro l’inquietante profezia, diventa chiaro che la battaglia tra gli dei è ormai imminente, e che con il rafforzarsi del vero Primordiale della Morte le perdite saranno ingenti.
Sera e Nyktos, sovrani delle Terre d’Ombra, sono costretti a prendere decisioni sempre più difficili e dolorose, ma sanno di poter contare sull’amore profondo e indomito che li unisce e su una famiglia dal cuore generoso disposta a combattere al loro fianco anche a costo della vita. E mentre preparano lo scontro finale con Kolis, cominciano a comprendere la verità nascosta nella profezia che Eythos ha cercato di scongiurare, e che lega il loro destino a quello di Kolis, all’anima perduta di Sotoria, e alle scelte dei loro futuri discendenti.
Ma riusciranno a fermare Kolis prima che distrugga i regni, o tutto scomparirà in un ardente inferno di sangue e cenere?
