Zarya must become the darkness…

Soaring through the sky to the frozen mountains of Andhera, Zarya knows that only she can save her home from annihilation. Ruthless armies hunt her friends and toxic dark magic spreads through the land, consuming all it touches. To fight back, she and Rabin must find dangerous new allies.

In a palace of black marble, Zarya finally meets her father—the mysterious Raja Abishek. She approaches warily. For years she was told to fear this man, that he seeks to steal her power. But Abishek welcomes her with open arms, with gifts and lavish celebrations.

Rabin is sure the king can help them, turning the tide of war and decay. And when the magic binding Zarya’s heart to Rabin begins to fail, only Abishek can offer a cure. Zarya dreads the thought of placing their lives in his hands… But can she hesitate, when Rabin might be torn from her forever?

As Zarya makes her choice, ancient magic breaks loose, and her world shatters. In a ruined and long forgotten city, her love for Rabin will be tested to its limits. An army of shadows marches against her, destroying all in its path, and everything Zarya loves will be lost, unless she can face the darkness inside her—and release its devastating power.

An absolutely gripping fantasy romance that’s perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas, Rebecca Yarros, and Carissa Broadbent, Queen of Shadows and Ruin is the epic final volume in the Nightfire Quartet.

Her breakthrough came with Trial of the Sun Queen, the first book in the Artefacts of Ouranos series, which gained an enthusiastic following on BookTok. It didn’t take long for the magic of her storytelling to catch the attention of publishers, and soon she was signed by Forever Publishing and Orbit UK, setting the stage for her global reach. As her books found a place in the hearts of readers, Nisha quickly became known for her steamy fantasy romance, with themes that include fae, vampires, witches, and intricate politics in fantastical courts.

In addition to Artefacts of Ouranos, Nisha’s Nightfire Quartet series, beginning with Heart of Night and Fire, delves deeper into her signature world-building, where love and war are as volatile as magic itself. The series promises a thrilling ride, blending passion with the type of high-stakes tension that has become a hallmark of her writing.

Tuli’s influences range from the timeless charm of The Princess Bride to the sweeping romanticism of authors like Sarah J. Maas, but her voice remains uniquely her own. With each novel, she pushes the boundaries of fantasy romance, adding layers of intrigue, danger, and heart. In May 2025, readers will get to experience a different side of her storytelling with Not Safe for Work, a contemporary romance that promises to be as sharp and witty as it is heartfelt.

For Nisha, every story is an opportunity to explore the darker and more passionate corners of human nature, all while offering her readers a deep connection to the magic they crave. With a pen that knows no bounds and a heart full of imagination, Nisha J. Tuli is an author who’s just getting started, and readers can’t wait to see where she’ll take them next.
