[Darkacademiareads · Rating 5 out of 5]

Aaahhh, these books just keep getting better and better, and honestly? That doesn’t surprise me at all.

You already know I love Amaya’s work, and Threads of Fate is no exception,it’s another sharp, aching reminder of why her stories sink their claws into you and refuse to let go.

Amaya has this rare, brutal talent for weaving emotion, horror, and intimacy together until you’re not just reading the story, you’re bleeding alongside it. Every page hums with feeling. The love hurts, the fear suffocates, the anger burns hot and reckless, and the hate is so visceral it leaves scorch marks. And the revenge? Oh, it’s glorious, slow, deliberate, and deeply satisfying.

And Corvin… ah. A sweetheart with a deadly edge, the kind of character who makes your heart soften right before he rips it out of your chest. That plot twist? Absolutely blindsided me. I did not see it coming, and I loved being so thoroughly wrecked by it.

Threads of Fate is beautiful in that dark, aching way that only Amaya can pull off, tragic, tender, and ruthless all at once. I truly hope these characters get the happy endings they’ve bled for… they deserve it after everything they endure.
Go read this anthology.
Seriously,go now. Let it ruin you in the best possible way. You’re going to love it.

Book 9 of the series…

Madelyn’s mother takes her own life, years later Maddy hears singing, following it she finds her childhood doll, Seraphina. Feeling a connection to her, she places her by her side. Corvin appears seemingly out of nowhere, showing her she can be loved but at what cost?

The twist towards the end was a great addition to this revenge story. Again, this one is filled with deleting her abusers. Amaya keeps you enthralled with her writing.

So good! Like I couldn’t put it down because I needed to know what was going to happen. I felt for Maddy, she had a rough life, one she didn’t ask for. I was glad to see Sav’s revenge be acted upon in this one.

THE THREADS OF FATE BY AMAYA JAX - NIGHTMARES ON LULL LANE BOOK #9

⚠️ THERE ARE TRIGGER WARNINGS ⚠️

FMC - Madelyn
MMC - Corvin?

CHILD/TEEN - Madelyn

DOLL - Seraphine
“she has pale, almost fully white skin, long curly black hair, her plump lips are painted in a bright red colour, and she’s wearing a white lacy dress.”

PARENTS - James & Jenny
STEP-PARENT - Lina (also a part of the attack)

I was immediately drawn into the setup, but honestly, the story took a horrible, devastating turn because of the pure cruelty inflicted on the main character.

Right away, at Jenny’s baby shower, we meet The Doll and get a clear picture of James, a grade-A drunk and a monumental asshole. The foundations of this family are rotten.

The most infuriating part was young Maddy's childhood. Her "Mother" treating her like trash is one thing, but to blame her own 10-year-old daughter for her husband’s infidelity and abuse? Seriously? Maddy didn't ask to be born into that mess, and my blood was boiling watching her childhood trauma unfold.

The first major shock is Jenny's suicide. It hit me like a train and left me totally bewildered. If the intended victim of the revenge is gone, who is left to suffer? Maddy, of course, is then thrust back into the fire, having to live with her abusive Father and the requisite Evil Step-Mother. The abuse just keeps escalating.

The discovery in her mother’s diary about Savannah solidified my disgust. Not only the details of the past event, but her mother's vile reaction: refusing to believe Savannah was raped, insisting she was just a "whore who slept with everyone’s boyfriend." It’s pure, hateful victim blaming.

Just when I was ready to give up on humanity, Corvin enters. He is the breath of fresh air, the savior in Maddy's tormented, lonely life... and THAT is when this book went from dark and frustrating to absolutely brilliant! The final reveal is not just a twist, it’s a seismic shock. I literally gasped out loud and had to reread the page. This book was SO DANG GOOD! The twist alone is worth the price of admission.

*I RECEIVED AN ARC IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW… MY OPINION IS MY OWN 🖤

MY HIGHEST RATED BOOK OF THE SERIES🥹

6 stars🥹

i absolutely loved every single part of this book. i think this is my favourite of the entire series,amaya did so so good with this one!

i fell in love with this book specifically because although it is g a romance it has romantic elements too it!! it is different from the others and is such a beautiful read!

the series is wrapping up now and i don't want it to end,i can't wait to re-read all of them!! the inclusions of the pictures in this one was my favourite i love seeing corvin and madelyn in the way amaya saw them,and our beautiful doll.. seraphina,she is really beautiful! & a little crazy but honestly i would have a doll like seraphina🥹

ratings??

characters?? 6⭐️ loved corvin,loved madelyn & loved seraphina,they are all written so beautifully but i do think corvin has been my favourite MMC of the series so far,alongside alistair! and madelyn,my heart broke for her and her story is so sad.. but her development above all was what pulled me in,she is written beautifully! and she really does come into her own and finds her strength in the way i wanted! i'm so proud of her!!

plot?? 6⭐️ the storyline for this is what gets me all the way in love with this😭 the bullying feels very personal and the struggling with fitting in because you were a little weird or a little quirky feels so personal and i think that's why i enjoyed this so much! but i also loved the greater plot line and the getting closer and closer to finding out about savannah and her crazy ways!!

spice + gore?? 🌶️🌶️🌶️ + 🩸🩸 this is definitely to me erotica with horror elements,but more so erotica and i don't usually the love the virgin fmc trope but amaya wrote it in a way it wasn't like forced upon you if that makes sense? it is sort of like mentioned but not focused on.. and i mean without spoiling it.. ghost sex. is all i can say heheheh. the gore is written so good and isn't overly gore'y but it works.. i prefer this leaning more into erotica than horror!

overall?? 6⭐️ what a perfect way to wrap up the dolls before we meet the dollmaker again! i can't wait too see where the series goes but this one was my favourite book i think of the whole series! i LOVED it so so much🥰

***ARC Review***
The Threads of Fate by Maya Jax is dark, decadent horror-erotica at its finest. It’s got that delicious mix of danger, desire, and just enough paranormal chaos to keep you up way past midnight.

Madelyn’s transformation from doormat to don’t-mess-with-me was everything. I was fully cheering her on while simultaneously fanning myself every time Corvin appeared (because sir). He’s got that sinful, magnetic energy that makes you forget how to breathe — and I regret nothing.

If you like your horror with heat, heartbreak, and a touch of the supernatural, prepare to be tangled up in this one.

[Lauren Head · Rating 5 out of 5]

I loved every part of this book definitely my favorite in the series! Amaya absolutely nailed it. It’s not just a romance; it’s emotional, unique, and beautifully written. The added photos were such a nice touch seeing Corvin, Madelyn, and our wild Seraphina through Amaya’s eyes made it even better. Corvin is my favorite MMC and Madelyn’s growth was incredible. Her story broke me but made me so proud. The plot felt personal, especially the bullying and outsider themes, and the mystery around Savannah kept me hooked.The spice leans more erotic with a dash of horror. I can’t wait for the next one!

[Amber · Rating 4 out of 5]

Madelyn has a terrible home life and is bullied at school. She just wants to make it out and leave it all behind. Her doll, Seraphine, is her only comfort until she meets Corwin. Soon her bullies end up dying and she doesn't know what is happening. She gets Savannah's revenge and meets up with the other kids at her house.

Madelyn is by far my fave in this wonderfully dark series. she survived so much pain when she lost her mom. Corvin was an amazing addition. I loved how she exacted her revenge on those who wronged her. I loved the bada** she became once she figured everything out. this one was a great novella. twisted and very gory. my kind of story.

“Maybe he’s that sign the universe is giving me, showing me that I need to learn to live. ”

This is the 9th book in the Nightmare on Lull Lane series centered upon a collection of dolls created by the Dollmaker that was sent out to all the families involved in a brutal on-page rape and almost murder from book one. Amaya Jax fills the reader with emotions of depression, anger, and suppression in the form of a teenage girl. This series is dark and this book is absolutely no exception, so I would definitely check the triggers before proceeding with any of the books in the series.

*spoilers*

We are introduced to Madelyn’s mother during her baby shower when an unexpected present shows up on the table with no label detailing who gifted her the porcelain doll. She decides to shove it away in a closet rather than discard it. Ten years later, when Madelyn is ten, her parents have an argument that ends with her father leaving and her mother unaliving herself with pills. But even through these mishaps, the doll has remained in her bedroom.

Now, eight years later, her attachment to the doll, Seraphina, has grown exponentially greater but she meets a guy named Corvin who questions about the bruises her father left across her face. This is the first interaction where somebody took an interest in her and she has longed for that kind of attention. Even her father shows no love for his only daughter, who takes it upon himself to harm her when she backtalks. But one night, after discovering her doll in another room next to a red notebook, she finds out about the atrocious act her father portrayed in as her mother decided to blame the victim.

With this morbid confession, the world surrounding Madelyn is crumbling and the only person that seems to want to be there for her is Corvin. Compassionate and full of light, he's the thing in her life that has been missing. But there's something different about Corvin which is made present when she comes home late and is harassed by her father. This made me like this storyline even more now that she had another presence with her to keep her safe. By the end of the story, she has to leave him behind in order to bring Seraphina to the other dolls and the Dollmaker.

As a first time read by Jax, let me just start by saying what?!! All that in a roughly sixty page book. Pulled me by the heartstrings and would not let me go until I reached the end. I know the series is coming to an end, but wow! They did not let the flow drop at all and I look forward to adding another title by the author into my ever-growing tbr list.

[ElderEmoSmutQueen · Rating 5 out of 5]

THIS IS PART OF A VERY DARK/PITCH BLACK SERIES OF HORROR STORIES – READ THE TRIGGER WARNINGS FIRST AS THESE BOOKS ARE NOT FOR EVERYONE

I fucking loved this. Madelyn’s story is probably the best I have read so far in the series (I was reading them in order but jumped a few that I intend to go back to).

After a tragic start in life and again, another set of vile parents that don’t deserve to any remote slice of happiness, Madelyn is yet another unloved, mistreated child of the group that Savannah wishes to seek revenge on from all those years ago. Her father is a cheating scum bag; her mother blames her for his actions and yet she got pregnant hoping it would keep him around and stop him from wandering. Gifted with another porcelain doll, Seraphine, Madelyn exacts revenge on those who torment her and those who tormented Savannah.

Corvin is the dark and broody love interest with tattoos and scars that only make him more attractive. The way he instantly loves and cares for Madelyn is beautiful and yet painful as she isn’t sure she deserves to feel the way he makes her feel. The fact that he calls her Vespera – meaning evening star, is also tragically beautiful as he’s describing her like the twilight not only because of her looks but how her darkness is just there beginning to show.

Amaya has written this perfectly, it’s a wonderful mix of love and darkness, as well as graphic gory horror that we expect from this series.

The twist in this story is just spine tinglingly gorgeous and I had an inkling but wasn’t 100% sure I was right about it.

Another fabulously violent edition to the Nightmares on Lull Lane series and I look forward to reading the rest of them.

[Inara Reads Dark and Twisted · Rating 4 out of 5]

I just finished this book, and honestly… I don’t know how I feel about it. I didn’t hate it, but I can’t say I loved it either. I mean, obviously, the story needs to be built, and I think the author did a great job with that, the plot is well-constructed and carefully developed.

But for me, it lacked intensity and darkness for most of the book. Nothing truly disturbing happens until around 60–70% in. The ending is more intense, yes, but still… I was missing something.

Here, we do get more answers, but I feel like the parents’ deaths came a bit too easily. The mother commits suicide, and when Madeleine finds her diary — that’s when you go, “What the hell?” Especially when the mother blames Savannah for everything…

As for the father — yes, he dies, but the whole revenge part with Savannah felt very superficial. There’s barely any real confrontation or emotional impact, and that left me wanting more. Overall, I think the parents didn’t suffer enough for what they did in the past.

That said, the book is well-written and well-developed. It’s just that for me, it was missing something more , more darkness, more intensity. Still, I’m giving it 4 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️, it’s a good book and I’ll recommend it and all the others, but maybe it’s just my current mood 🫣 and not the book itself.

As always, please read the trigger warnings — this kind of story isn’t for everyone.

And thanks to all the authors for the opportunity to read this book in advance. Overall, I’m really enjoying the Nightmares on Lull Lane series — it has amazing authors and stories.🖤🖤

[Ash Reads · Rating 4 out of 5]

Book 9 in the Nightmares on Lull Lane Series focused on Madelyn, her doll Serephina and her friend Corvin who she can see and feel, but nobody else can.

Madelyn lives with her father James and stepmother Lina, both of whom treat her terribly. As Madelyn grows older and meets her new friend Corvin, she suddenly finds an inner confidence and rage which allows her to retaliate towards her father, with each incident only increasing her hate towards him and feeding the urge to kill him in the most gruesome way.

She starts to sing a creepy lullaby before her rage takes over, giving us a reader warning that she is entering a trance/ dream like state where very dark things happen.

As the story progresses, things heat up between Madelyn and Corvin and Seraphina leads her to discovering what her father and stepmother did to Savannah and Tripp back in high school, feeding the need to seek revenge even more and despise her father more than she ever thought possible.

After a terrible day at school, Madelyn heads home knowing her father is waiting to punish her, but this time her and Seraphina are ready to act. With the help of Corvin, they have the ultimate revenge planned.

This book is dark, dangerous and delicious. I loved the storyline between Madelyn and Corvin, and the spice and madness between them.

[xXTomeRaiderXx · Rating 4 out of 5]

4.25⭐️

This one wrapped me up and dragged me under in the most deliciously deranged way— think Ghost meets Natural Born Killers, but make it a murderous, aching Gothic romance.

Our tattooed MMC, Corvin, appears from almost thin air one day. Tattooed, haunted, and maddingly tender (only for her); his devotion on his sleeve. And appears to make it his mission to watch over Madelyn, the daughter of James and Jenny from book one. But what begins as duty unfurls into something darker, softer, more sinful. Their love blooms in blood-soaked justice spree, equal parts tenderness and terror.

Don’t let the swoon fool you though— this isn’t a love story wrapped in roses. It’s revenge stitched into porcelain skin. The reveal in this one clawed its way out of nowhere and left me grinning like something unholy. And that subtle, eerie familiarity between Corvin and Madelyn, hums through the pages… a curse waiting to bloom.

There’s just something about a man who sees the monster in you and whispers, “more.” Who doesn’t want to tame the darkness but worships it. And maybe that’s what makes this novella so intoxicating—how love and violence can share the same heartbeat.

If you’re craving a spooky season read that’s equal parts spectral, sensual, and soaked in revenge—The Threads of Fate will leave you trembling, touched, and a little bit damned.

**ARC REVIEW**

⚠️ Trigger warnings apply — proceed with caution! ⚠️

Threads of Fate by Amaya Jax (Book 9 in the Nightmares on Lull Lane shared world series) did not disappoint! The writing is beautiful, and the characters are incredibly well developed.

Maddy’s story broke me, yet I was rooting for her every step of the way as she transformed from a scared, bullied girl into a strong, brave woman—a journey that was incredibly satisfying to watch. And her doll, Seraphina? Perfectly creepy and oddly endearing at the same time.

Corvin—the man who truly makes Maddy feel loved—was utterly swoon-worthy. Their chemistry was on point! The balance between spice and gore was just right, keeping me hooked from start to finish.

I also loved the addition of the pictures of Corvin, Madelyn, and Seraphina throughout the story—it added such a unique, personal touch, and seeing Maddy’s parents (and everyone who hurt her) finally get what they deserved was incredibly satisfying.

Threads of Fate is a haunting, heart-wrenching, and utterly addictive read—absolutely worth diving into. The other books in the series are just as compelling, so make sure to start with The Dollmaker by Ashlynn, where it all begins!

Thank you to Amaya Jax for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

[Kayleigh Garner · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is the third book I have read from the lovely Amaya Jax, and she doesn’t disappoint. This book had me hooked from the first page, and I love the character progression of the FMC, Madelyn. The poor girl seems to be living a terrible life, and she can’t be blamed entirely for the events that unfold.

Madelyn’s father and step mother are the definition of neglectful and abusive. They flit from not giving a damn about her, to verbally and physically abusing her. You can understand why she seems so lost but hopeful of a better life outside the house.

She certainly comes into her own after she meets Corvin. This boy seems to know exactly what to say to our FMC that send her swooning. He’s also massively supportive and protective of her, showing her the love she so desperately craves.

Seraphina, her doll, also plays a part in making Madelyn feel strong and able to face those that have caused her the most pain. I do wish that we had seen more of Seraphina’s character though, but I don’t think this takes away from the story itself.

The ending was massively unexpected but welcome, and makes you wonder what the hell is going on. I can’t wait to keep reading!

Please check trigger warnings before reading, for the sake of your mental health.

[Tanya · Rating 4 out of 5]

The Threads of Fate is book nine of the Nightmares of Lull Lane, written by Amaya Jax. There are 11 books in this series; aside from the first and last books, they can be read in any order. They are standalones, but they do refer back to a central plot established in book one. All the books in the series are horror, and some may edge toward splatterpunk. All of the books are considered novellas. I love this concept a lot and look forward to reading the entire series!

This book focuses on Madelyn and her doll, Seraphina. The tragic passing of her mom left her with her horrible father. Between a horrendous home life and being bullied at school, she was a broken girl until Corvin came along. I loved reading about the transformation that Maddy went through. Her father, James, and stepmom, Lina, get precisely what is coming to them.

The book is dark and just as delicious as the others have been. I can’t wait to finish the last book in the series to see everything come to a chilling end!

Thanks to Amaya Jax for gifting me an eARC of The Threads of Fate. I am leaving this review voluntarily. All thoughts and opinions are my own

Dark, Dirty, & Doll-Cursed

Okay Besties... "The Threads of Fate" gave me the chills—but the kind you actually enjoy. This one felt a little softer and not as dark than some of the other stories, but still had that eerie, seductive vibe that keeps me coming back for more. Madelyn’s life flips upside down when her old doll reappears, and Corvin strolls in like the mysterious stranger we all know we shouldn’t trust but totally would. The haunted doll element was creepy without being too intense, and the chemistry? Subtle, but enough to keep me hooked.

My only gripe? I wish these novellas were longer. Just when I start vibing with the characters—it’s over! I want more backstory, more burn, more of that slow descent into chaos. Still, this novella is a hauntingly good addition to the series and delivers exactly what the Nightmares On Lullaby Lane world promises: dark, dirty, and dangerously addictive.

Disclaimer. This book was sent to me at no cost in exchange for an honest review. This review is still my honest thoughts.

What an engaging read! I didn't want to stop and it felt like it ended too soon (in a very good way). Maddie and Corvin had such a a beautiful chemistry, feeding off of each other's personalities and blending the two so well! I liked that the doll in this book was different from the others in the sense of her presence being more implied than literal. It was a nice change of pace. Watching Maddy grow from a quiet scared insecure girl to a brave woman willing to defend herself to the days end was so empowering. The spice definitely added to the story without being overpowering. The ending was so heart jerking though. Without spoilers I hope to see her get what she wants and deserves in the final book. The violence could have been a little more prevalent, being a splatterpunk novella, but all in all, a wonderful novella, and I would absolutely read this again.

[Dinah's Bookshelf · Rating 4 out of 5]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ | 🌶️🌶️🌶️
The vibes? Creepy. The romance? Twisted. The suspense? Had me side-eyeing my own childhood toys. I was hooked, confused, emotionally wrecked—and loving every second. Madelyn’s story is haunting—she’s searching for a fresh start, but fate has other plans. When her old doll reappears and a mysterious man shows up with secrets stitched into his soul, everything begins to unravel.

Let’s talk Corvin. 😳🥵 Is he a ghost? A hallucination? A curse wrapped in a smirk? I still don’t know—and that’s exactly why I’m obsessed. He’s mysterious, emotionally loaded, and stitched into Madelyn’s unraveling in ways that feel intimate and dangerous. Their connection is twisted, tender, and terrifying in all the right ways.

That final scene? Unreal. Seeing all the kids with their dolls—each one marked, each one claimed—was bone-deep terrifying. It confirmed everything: the Dollmaker’s curse is still active, still spreading, and no one is safe. That visual will haunt me forever.

A mysterious stranger, a doll, and revenge

Madelyn as with all the other kids had a terrible home life. Her mother, father and stepmother were all involved in what happened with Savannah.

When her parents marriage ended her mother ended her life as well. So Madelyn and her doll Seraphina end up living with her Dad and his new Wife. Madelyn is abused by her father, mother in law, and several bullies on a daily basis.

One day a beautiful boy shows up and he is immediately everything Madelyn needed in her life. He is comforting, loving and willing to help her with deleting those people who have been so mean to her.

This book feels definitely lighter than some of the other ones. I do feel like the parents got it pretty easy especially after how she took down the bullies. This one had a surprising twist at the end that was unexpected. Can't b wait to see how this finalizes.

[Nikki B. · Rating 5 out of 5]

Threads of Fate Is book 9 in the Nightmares on Lull Lanes series.
This is Madelyn's story. And of course, she was born to some pretty crappy parents. She lives with her father and step-mother, who both bully her. And like the other kids born from monsters, Madelyn too is bullied at school. Then Corvin appears and he just helps her through so much. She doesn't realize how much strength and courage she draws from him until the end really, but he is just everything she needs in her life. Even though Corvin plays a big part in helping Madelyn, they still bring her doll, Serephina, along with them. Together, they handle business and get revenge on those who treated her the worst.
The series is started to come to an end now and I love how the ending of this one gave us a glimpse of the others and the Savannah. It's like they're all finally coming home. I just can't wait to get to the last book to see where this is all headed and what Savannah has planned with her dolls.

[Kai · Rating 5 out of 5]

I absolutely loved every part of this book — hands down my favorite in the series! Amaya completely nailed it. This isn’t just a romance; it’s emotional, hauntingly beautiful, and so uniquely written.

The added photos were such a special touch — seeing Corvin, Madelyn, and our wild Seraphina through Amaya’s eyes made the story come alive even more. Corvin easily takes the crown as my favorite MMC (that man has my whole heart), and Madelyn’s growth was phenomenal. Her story shattered me in the best way — heartbreaking, raw, and so full of strength that it left me genuinely proud of her.

The plot hit close to home with its themes of bullying and feeling like an outsider, while the lingering mystery surrounding Savannah kept me completely hooked. And let’s talk about the spice — darkly erotic with just the right dash of horror to make it unforgettable.

I can’t wait to see what comes next in this world. Amaya keeps outdoing herself.

[Jessie Raven · Rating 5 out of 5]

Madelyn with her doll Seraphina is up next! A child that witnessed death at a young age. Traumatised. She meets her man Corvin who makes her feel loved and wanted and things get better for her. Until they don’t. It’s up to Madelyn to get revenge on those that have hurt her. Maybe with a helping hand or two

The ending had me baffled in a good way! Kinda curious to know who Corvin really is at this point. Hopefully I get the answers when this series concludes! The story was extremely fast paced which is what we like. To the point with no fucking around. I’m loving how every story seems to thicken the plot more and more. These stories are becoming absolutely phenomenal. Last book is the next one before the finale! Really felt for Madelyn throughout and the pain she endured. Just as she finds happiness another twist is looming. One of the top ones this is!

So grateful to have received this ARC along with the other books in the Nightmares on Lull Lane series.

This is book 9 in the series, and as usual I will advise you to check your trigger warnings. This book was not as dark at the others in the series, but it had some creepy elements.

Similar to a few of the other books, the MCs aren’t only getting revenge for Savannah, but they are also getting revenge for themselves. Madelyn went from trying to avoid her bullies to standing up to them.

Sidebar: I can’t see there being many kids left in this school at this point... 😅 Between Savannah using some for her revenge, and the ones being used offing their bullies... how many could possibly be left? Is no one concerned? 😂

Corvin was a nice addition to this story.. at first I was like “who the hell is this dude and where did he come from?”. But he helped my girl find her confidence, even though he did have her out here looking a little delulu.

This was a perfect addition to the series.
