Where magic, romance, and The Hunger Games meet.
Carmen Asbaje lived with fatal secrets. When the fiercely competitive Blood Tournaments drew near, she was forced to meet with the former Tournament Champion, Antonio Castillas, to save her friend’s life. After that meeting, a spark of passion ignited inside of her.
Forbidden infatuation.
When her accidental Blood Magic audition was leaked, Carmen received national attention and was entered into the upcoming Blood Tournament.
Impersonating an Elite was a crime punishable by death, yet there was no escape. She never should have been elevated to Elite status, but if she refused to compete or her past was uncovered, she would be endangering the life of everyone connected to her.
Leading up to the Tournament, Carmen discovered the Elite culture was savage, venomous, and relentless. If she didn’t win, the streets would run gold with her blood.
Be captivated by Carmen's story as it intertwines with classic themes of social status and courage to survive against all odds. This is perfect for fantasy romance fans looking for just the right amount of steam and their next slow-burn couple.
NOTE: This series is upper YA/NA and will have moderate steam as the series progresses. There are some instances of violence, language, and mature situations. Recommended for ages sixteen and up.
“Daniela A. Mera has created a unique dystopian world where blood magic reigns, Elites are forced into arranged marriages, and no one can be trusted. Fantasy and dystopia meld together seamlessly in this first installment of The Blood Tournaments. It's a must-read!” - Elayna R. Gallea, author of Tethered: Book 1 of the Binding Chronicles
