Mera, Daniela A. – The Gilded Survivor

August 16, 2023 · In: 17th

One house. Deadly secrets. She wanted to hide, but he wanted her to shine.

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.
