Hallowed Games

Hallowed Games by C. N. Crawford is a dark fantasy romance where deadly trials, forbidden magic and a dangerous attraction collide. If you love high-stakes competition and morally grey characters, this one hooks fast.

Cursed to kill with the lightest touch, our heroine is forced into an annual trial to the death alongside other “cursed” competitors—because only one will be granted mercy. Magic is outlawed, the rules are brutal, and every alliance comes with a cost. Then she meets Maelor, a mysterious hunter who should be just as lethal… except he’s immune to her curse. The reason is worse than she expects: he’s already dead, and he’s hiding secrets of his own.

Perfect for readers chasing vampire romance, deadly trials, gothic vibes and a spicier edge.

Add it to your TBR and step into the games—if you dare.
