Cursed was wonderfully written book. I absolutely enjoyed every page of this book, all the twists and turns in this book were delightful. I also loved how Cindy wrote about how Mel rescued injured animals and nursed them back to health. That really warmed my heart. A fantastic read with a wonderful plot and enjoyable characters. This book will most defiantly be added to my re-read book list. Five cheers for Cindy's book “Cursed�.

I highly recommend this book for those of us who love paranormal romance, witches and shifters. I loved the connection between Melissa and Jonas, who both believe their curses prevent them from ever having a lasting love. I was rooting for them from the beginning, and the well-developed, suspenseful plot had me in its grips until the end.
This is probably one of my most favorite CSP books:) Love how she worked a horror author into a romance book, something I'd been challenged to do, but not quite accomplished yet. Kudos Cindy:)
