The Phoenix King's Bargain
(2025)(The sixth book in the Of Lions and Roses series)
A novel by Tasha Creed
He was given the power of destruction and told to run. She had no memory of who she was and stumbled into the ruins of his kingdom with a secret that could shatter everything.
Benson was given the powers of destruction by his father as he breathed his last breath and commanded him to flee. Now, he is returning as their king, hoping that the phoenixes survived the curse. When he sees the shambles of his kingdom, he is haunted by shadows and feels guilty for not disobeying his father's order. The powers he holds whispers of chaos and death, but his people need a leader, and he is determined to not fail them.
What he doesn’t expect is Elysia.
A quiet survivor with no memory of who she was before she gave birth and found their kingdom almost a hundred years ago, she raises a mysterious young boy who bears an uncanny resemblance to Benson himself. As darkness closes in and war looms, Benson begins to suspect that the boy is his. But he can't be because he had never met Elysia before returning, meaning either his fated mate gave her the boy or she stole him.
But revealing the past could destroy them both. And Benson doesn't want to admit what he's feeling for her.
As ancient enemies descend and the skies break with shadows, Benson and Elysia must fight not only for survival, but for a future neither ever thought possible.
In a kingdom of ash and memory, love may be their only salvation or their greatest undoing.
This is a closed-door, swoony fantasy romance featuring fated mates, a brooding prince with shadowy powers, and a mute, resilient heroine. As the sixth and final book in the Of Lions and Roses series, it weaves themes of forbidden love, lost memories, and a kingdom on the brink of war.
Genre: Paranormal Romance
