Ever since I discovered Nisha's books I have been hooked on every one.
Book 3 lands us back with Zarya and Yasen as they fight with the rebels.
This book did not disappoint. I love the friendship between Yasen and Zarya, the love and respect they have for each other is just perfect.
Then we have Rabin. He lied, but was it for the right reasons? I think he is deluding himself about some things but his heart is in the right place.
I loved the growth of all the characters and I can't wait until the final book comes out!

3.5 🌟
Book 3 in the Nightfire Quartet tells us the next part in Sarya's life after events of book one and two. She's discovering a new part of herself, going deeper into her magic and trying to get past the betrayal of Rabin, however he's still pretty much in her mind and possibly her heart.
This third book felt like an entirely different story in the life of the FMC, I feel I lost a little of continuity, but at the same time I can feel the characters growing along with the plot and that's refreshing, but I missed a little action and I'm not sure where things are going, guess I'll have to wait and see.

this might be my favorite book out of the series yet. nisha u have never failed me and i love u for that. tbh this was even better than the previous book, even more fast paced, it felt a little filler-y but i devoured every single detail of it, seeing zarya discovering her magic n full potential was literally everything esp knowing that she was very powerless before, i love how this book really shows how far she has come since the first book. rabinzarya's romance had me by the throat theres something about intertwined lovers that will always get me and nisha knew what she was doing and rabinzarya just served it so well. Also yasen my glorious king u will always be loved, his and zarya's friendship just keeps getting better and better every time and i live for it. my absolute favorite platonic soulmates. And im so glad yasen has His person now even tho hes in denial and thinks theyre just messing around but ive seen this before :) also rabin growling was one of my favorite things they dont do #real growling like this anymore. the last bit of the book was so nerve racking i was literally on edge the entire time, im very satisfied with the ending although that last silly cliffhanger made me sigh a little but i genuinely cant wait for zarya to meet yk who for the first time ever in the next book, it should be interesting. i settled on giving this a 4.25 stars i really enjoyed it and cant wait for the next one

thank you so much nisha, second sky and her team for sending me this arc

I received the arc! Thank you Nisha.

Ok I really enjoyed this book, we pick up with Zarya all mad at Rabin, and for good reason. Things happen, adventures are had and then they’re back together fighting the bad guys. But who are the bad guys? I’m still not certain that we really know that yet, but maybe it’s actually her DAD 🤷‍♀️? But it might also definitely be her half sister? But maybe she’s redeemable? I guess we’ll find out in the next book. But we DO know that the vanshaj deserve to be free, and it turns out Zee is the one to do it.

Zee really stepped into her power in this book and I admire her maturity for the way she handled Rabin, but I feel like he needed to GROVEL a little more. And there was no groveling, there wasn’t much going on with him at all. In fact, I found Rabin to be so hot in books 1&2 and in this book he’s kinda… a warm body. A sexy warm body, but I digress. He’s obsessed with Zarya, as he should be, but he’s also a bit of a wet noodle. I want my moody dragon back. But he is still really bossy in bed though 😈.

I feel like this book suffers a touch from middle book syndrome. You start witnessing all the chess pieces moving into place, but there’s not a lot really going on. I think we’re kind of tee’d up now for book 4 but I’m ready to find out what’s going on with her dad. and the Jadugara. and Amrita. and Vik (not to be confused with Vikas).

Umm but can we also give NJT a round of applause for her glossary at the beginning of the book?? Can every high fantasy book have one of these pretty please?? I swear this book gets a whole star from me just because it has that. I referenced it many a time.

4.75 stars 🌟, and the only reason it's not 5 is that I feel it's setting up for an absolutely epic next book. In my eyes, Nisha can do no wrong. Apart from making me extremely hungry with all the yummy food in this book!

I absolutely loved this book and am slightly terrified of what Nisha has in store for the next book. Please don't make me cry! 😢 🙏

Rabin and Zaraya are the perfect example of tension and grumpy x sunshine. I love how he's so absolutely besotted with Zaraya but stone-faced to anyone else. We really got to see a softer side of him in this book, which made me fall for him even more.

I can't say too much without spoilers, but this book changes things going forward, and I'm so excited to see Zaraya get her revenge on a certain someone. Each page of this book is filled with character development, action, tension, spice, and fantastic world-building.

Love everything she writes... weaves beautiful believable tragic characters whom she lives to torture and I just want them to be happy

Following the shocking revelations of Dance of Stars and Ashes, this book follows Zarya and Yasen to Ishaan as they throw themselves headfirst into a rebellion to free the oppressed. Zarya still seethes and burns from Rabin's betrayal, whilst he fights to gain back the trust and affection of the one woman who lights a fire within his soul.

I once again adored the storytelling, the steam, the high, high emotion and action. Nisha has an immense talent for writing heroines that take no s*** and fight for the respect, devotion and friendship that they deserve, and don't even get me started on her MMCs. There are no words.
The cultural hints within this story are wonderful and flow seamlessly into the fantasy, and I absolutely cannot wait for the final book!

Zarya continues to move forward despite Rabin's betrayal. However she must work with him to save everyone.

Love this book! Been waiting for it for so long. Zarya and Rabin are unforgettable characters. Their relationship is complicated and totally fascinating.

Thanks to the publisher for the arc.

This book is the third in the Nightfire Quartet. Our MFC, Zarya is out in the world now, using her magic the way she wants and learning what life is about. She is trying to help others as well as living. She is sad and confused about our MMC, Rabin, the amazing dragon. He is losing his mind without her and how he hurt her. He learns how to contact her in their private dream realm. Then Zarya does as well and they finally come back together and he swears his life to her. They have a very good and steamy time and stay together. It is a great read and a great time. There is much steamy play between them as well as lots of fighting and trying to save others around them. They bring their friends together to try to improve their world. They bond and marry, finally knowing they are nothing without the other. In the end they must take themselves and friends to a place Zarya never wanted to go, to her father. This is where the story leaves us and now the wait for the next incredible story. I enjoyed this book and have enjoyed this series. I always look forward to Nisha J Tulis next book

We are so back!!! I love everything Nisha write and this series is amazing. I thought I was going to have to wait forever to read book three, but thanks to Netgally and Nisha I didn’t have to - much love!!

Book two was exciting because they finally did it - jeez what a slow burn. Book three is even more exciting because there is a lot of tension, building trust, & saving the world.

Zarya is ready to fulfill the prophecy & figure out who she really is without Rabin (boo)! Rabin is willing to do whatever it takes to get back on Zarya’s good side. Three is better than two, right?? *can’t forget about Yasen in this equation*

Zarya is a different person than in the first two books. She is starting to slowly figure out who she is while also healing her inner child. She is starting to put together what is the actual truth and what are lies. I loved seeing her character develop and can’t wait to see what happens in book four!

Rabin is still our favorite broody dragon that did break Zarya’s trust, but is more than willing to jump off a cliff it makes her trust him again. His character development has been great to read. He is coming out of his shell and realizing he is a person & deserves good things. Him and Zarya together are magic, literally.

The world building in this book was awesome! I loved getting to see a new side of the content & what the rebellion has planned. I cannot wait to see what happens when Zarya finally meets her bio dad!

Tropes:
-touch her & d!e
-Indian lore & fantasy
-yummy MMC (one is a dragon 🥵)
-enemies to lovers
-royalty
-brothers fighting over the FMC

Thank you to Netgalley, Second Sky and the author for the ARC

Nisha continues to impress. I love diving back into her books. They're always so fun and engaging, I get completely lost in them. Her world-building is excellent and her characters are fenomenal. If you're looking for your next great romantasy book then I highly recommend this series as well as every other series by Nisha. She is a talented storyteller.

Absolutely amazing. I love that it just picked up in a new city with Zarya and Yasen’s new life in the middle of their current mission. There was always so much going on that I never wanted to stop reading- but it was perfectly balanced so that the action wasn’t overwhelming. I love Nisha’s writing because she develops the characters so well and I am so invested in their story. The ending to this story was perfect because it wasn’t quite a cliffhanger but there are so many questions and unknowns at the end of book 3 that as a reader I am left wanting more!

Nisha J. Tuli is the queen of cliffhangers so I was so happy to get this ARC. I listened to the two first books in this series as audio books and have been literally on my toes waiting for this book to come out.

I read this book over two days, if I could have I would have read it in one sitting. This isn't my favorite series by Nisha but it's close to the "artefacts of Ouranos". Nisha has a way with words and is great not only with the world building but also thinking of the details that will draw you into the book and fall in love with the characters. The Indian lore and fantasy was really interesting, however what I really loved was the tropes like; touch her and die and a dragon shifter MMC. All characters really grows in this book but I was especially impressed by Zarya's character and how she dealt with everything. If you're looking for an emotional roller-coaster, this book is for you. And as I mentioned just at the beginning,

Blurb:
Dark magic courses through Zarya’s veins—magic that could save countless lives… or doom her world. Shattered by Rabin’s betrayal, Zarya vows to leave all thoughts of him behind. In the dangerous city of Ishaan, she joins an ancient struggle for freedom. Ishaan is a city of violent contrasts. Nobles and scholars live in golden luxury. But thousands of vanshaj workers are born into magical slavery—in punishment for a crime forgotten centuries ago. Zarya is outraged, and certain that the fate of the vanshaj is linked to her own forbidden magic. She joins a band of rebels battling for their freedom, and with Yasen at her side she throws herself into the fight.

I'm so grateful that I was able to get an ARC of Storm of Ink and Blood.

If you know me, you probably know that I haven’t shut up about the first two books in this series, so I couldn’t wait to dive into this book.

Zarya’s growth throughout the series has been so amazing. I also love her relationships with the friends she’s made throughout her journey. And, of course, I love Rabin (how can you not).

I can’t wait for the last book in this series!

I absolutely love all of Nisha J Tuli’s books and I was so happy to be able to continue this series. This series is so addictive and beautifully written!

I am a huge fan of Nisha’s books and was so excited to receive an ARC. The world building is so well done without being tedious, the characters are complex and flawed and realistic, the spice is spicy and this book did not disappoint. I’m so excited to continue this series when the next book is ready!

I mean, come on. This series is so stupidly good! I'm obsessed with it.

I practically screamed when I got this ARC. I love Nisha J. Tuli and this series is my all time favorite from her. Everything about it is great, the world she made is so amazing and I love fantasy books based around East Asian culture and mythology. So many fantasy books focus on Celtic or Norse mythology, but the vibes of this series are unmatched. It's so unique and the characters are so easy to love. She is the queen of pacing, never too fast and never too slow.

Betrayal tropes in romance books are always tough because the author has to really find the right amount of time for the characters to be separated to where you feel like the betrayal didn't get dragged on too long, but you also don't feel like they gave in too easy. This one really hit the mark on that. I felt that Zarya stayed mad for the perfect amount of time, and Rabin never gave up. Once they came together, she took a fair amount of time to trust him again but was still open to him and working on it. I think this is one of the best post-betrayal trope storylines I've read! It really was just the perfect pace of reconciliation.

This book was a 5 star for me, just like the last one. I'll probably think about this series for a long time because I'm so obsessed with the world it's created. I'm never going to shut up about it! The only bad thing about receiving this early is that I'll have to wait even longer until book 4. I'm ready for it now!!
