Fans of Keri Arthur will love the Weird Girls, four sisters cursed with supernatural powers. In Cecy Robson’s latest urban fantasy romance, the search is on for an unholy grail, while evil is licking its wounds—and looking for revenge.
The preternatural world is changing. After a massive magical throwdown tore apart the established order, the dark elements are rebuilding their ranks unopposed. Celia Wird’s world is changing, too. She’s the mate of the pureblood were Aric, and his Warriors are honor-bound to protect her family as she and her sisters recover from unimaginable horrors.
Celia hesitates to reveal the true extent of the Wird sisters’ trauma, but they aren’t the only ones keeping secrets: Aric and the werewolf Elders are tracking a stone that grants limitless power. So is a tough coven of witches. Then Misha, a master vampire with his own plans for the stone, sends Celia after it. Can she and the vamps beat both the weres and the witches to the treasure before it falls into the wrong hands?
Fearing for Celia’s safety, Aric begs her to stay out of the hunt. What they don’t realize is that they’re the ones being hunted. But Celia’s ready to prove that she’s not easy prey.
REVIEW
I haven't read the previous books in this series which can be a risk, particularly when there have been several, but I've read Cecy Robson before, I like her writing and the blurb grabbed me. Yes, I struggled a little at the start to keep up, a lot happened, it was fast paced and it's apparent that a lot has occurred in the previous books. With a plethora of characters, each with varying abilities and unique personalities, I was somewhat what concerned that I was going to struggle with the who's who. But this wasn't the case; I quickly became acquainted with each one and it became a book I struggled to tear myself away from.
"Destiny had other plans."
Pure blood were-shifter, Aric Connor, and Celia Wird, one of the Weird sisters cursed with supernatural powers, are an endearing, passionate couple who have suffered pain and loss and their love for one another is stronger for it. But with dark elements waiting in the wings, the strength of their relationship is about to be tested...
"I don't want to ask, but I need to know. Are you afraid of me?"
Cecy Robson has a writing style that grabs regardless of the genre she writes. Her books bring emotion and A Curse Unbroken has left me wanting to go back and start this series from the very beginning. Filled with magic, mystery and intrigue I couldn't predict how the story would unfold, and with fabulous humour, intimacy, blood and gore added to the mix, I couldn't have asked for much more.
If an edgy romantic urban fantasy that keeps you on your toes throughout is what you're after, then A Curse Unbroken is a book I highly recommend.
"You're the only one I see, the only one I want, and the only one I'll ever love."
