A Steeping of Blood
"Brewed to perfection.” —Rebecca Ross, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Divine Rivals
After the jaw-dropping ending of #1 New York Times-bestseller A Tempest of Tea, Hafsah Faizal crafts a deliciously twisty and seductive sequel that will leave readers breathless until the very last page. A romantic vampire fantasy novel for fans of Immortal Dark and Heartless Hunter.
Arthie Casimir has had her tea. Now she's out for blood.
White Roaring is sharpening its fangs after the deadly night that left the city in shambles. The press are dead, the public is calling for justice, vampires are in danger, and amid the turmoil, the Ram announces a celebration.
Still reeling from the bloodshed, Arthie Casimir has no time to mourn the death of anyone, let alone her own. She has no time for love, either, even though it had saved her life. As Arthie navigates new emotions and new allies, she must reassemble her scrambled crew and scrape what little they have left to fight one last time—and she will need to face the ghosts of her past to do it.
In Ceylan.

Hafsah Faizal
Before Hafsah Faizal conjured the rich, mythical landscapes of We Hunt the Flame, she was crafting worlds behind a design screen—literally. A self-taught designer and entrepreneur, Hafsah’s journey to fantasy stardom didn’t begin with a pen in hand, but with pixels and code. Her creative eye and relentless curiosity eventually led her from web design into storytelling, where she found the freedom to build kingdoms instead of websites.
Born in Florida to Sri Lankan parents and raised in a devout Muslim household, Hafsah grew up surrounded by books but rarely saw herself in them. So she did what many powerful creators do—she wrote the stories she longed to read. Her debut duology, the Sands of Arawiya series, is more than just a fantasy saga; it’s a reclamation of voice and visibility. Set in a lush, ancient-inspired world pulsing with danger and desire, the books blend lyrical prose, simmering tension, and morally complex characters—hallmarks of her immersive style.
