I’m a demigod who was raised in hell. Now the gods say I earned the right to join them in Paradise.

But an eternally peaceful existence as a goddess?
Hard pass.
Especially if it means I would never get to see them again.

My thoughtful, merciless fae necromancer.
My charmingly ferocious dragon shifter.
My dreamy, unhinged Nightmare Prince.
And my beautifully brutal ice elemental.

These legacies are mine, and I refuse to let them go without a fight.

Which is why I found a way to return to the mortal realm, even if I don’t remember what I did—yet. My memories of Paradise are returning slowly as I try to bring my quintet back from their twisted, broken madness.

I thought they were obsessed with me before, but now?
These cursed legacies are deliciously heartless when it comes to protecting me.
The feeling is completely mutual.

But if my quintet wants any kind of future together, I first need to fix the wreckage that I left the mortal world in.

Darkness, obsession, bloodshed, battle, divine vengeance, death…
It certainly sounds like the start of a happily ever after to me.

Some magic binds you. Some magic breaks you.

Read full series description

At Everbound University, legacy is more than a birthright—it’s a sentence. In Cursed Legacies, descendants of the Four Houses are marked by ancient magic, carrying curses so deep they twist fate itself. Their only chance at survival lies in forging a quintet: five souls bound by heart and oath, battling not just external enemies but the darkness blooming inside themselves.

The story follows Maven, a human with hidden magic, thrust into a world where power is inherited, alliances are razor-thin, and secrets can kill. Forced into a quintet with four supernatural heirs, Maven must navigate forbidden bonds, brutal betrayals, and a destiny she never asked for. Trust is dangerous. Love is deadly. And breaking a curse might cost more than her life—it might cost her soul.

Set against the brooding backdrop of dark academia and steeped in paranormal romance, Cursed Legacies weaves slow-burn tension, morally complex characters, and intricate world-building into a saga where every choice carries blood-stained consequences. Across Blood Oath, Shadow Heart, Twisted Soul, and Divine Fate, the series crafts an immersive journey through ambition, loyalty, and the shadows we carry—and sometimes become.

With its haunting atmosphere and emotionally charged storytelling, this series stands out for readers who crave magic with teeth, romance with danger, and characters who fight just as hard against themselves as they do against the forces set to destroy them.
