Overview

Evalle Kincaid will fight to the death for her supernatural friends.

But when Sherrilyn Kenyon and Dianna Love’s tough-as-nails heroine reveals her darkest secret, who among those she had trusted will be left standing?

With the freedom of an entire race hanging in the balance, Evalle has two days to make good on a promise that she suddenly has no hope of fulfilling when demonic Svart Trolls invade Atlanta. She takes a leap of faith, seeking help from the one man who recently put Evalle in his crosshairs—Black Ops specialist Isak Nyght. While trying to stop the bloody troll-led gang wars, Evalle unwittingly exposes a secret that endangers all she holds dear and complicates her already tumultuous love life with the mysterious Skinwalker, Storm. But when Evalle discovers she’s the number one target in the Medb coven’s ruthless plan to destroy all Beladors, the deadly Alterant is forced to make a game-changing decision with no time left on the clock.

    I was very, very, very fortunate enough to be sent an advanced copy of The Curse, the third book of Sherrilyn Kenyon & Dianna Love's. I really love this series and if you haven't looked into it yet, you really need to. Each book is better than the last.

    The Beladors are pretty much superhumans without actually being human. They look human but they can talk to each other telepathically and have super speed, etc. Many of them work for an organization called VIPER which is made up of nonhumans who are out to protect humans.

    We, mainly, follow Evalle who is an Alterant. This is a half-Belador, half-something else. Not even Evalle knows what her fully genetic history is but whatever it is makes it so she can shift into an Alterant form - pretty much a mega powerful monster. The other Beladors fear her for just this reason even though she's spent the past 5 years of her life working to protect mankind and her Belador tribe. This is Evalle's story as she fights for her right to exist.

    In The Curse, Evalle has been set on an impossible task, or rather, many tasks. She must find out what the other line of her DNA is, what makes her Alterant. She must also find other Alterants to pledge themselves to the Belador Goddess, Mecha, who is, for a limited time only, offering up the golden opportunity to be protected under Mecha's pantheon and seen as a real race and not just beasts to be destroyed however, the Alterants she knows about aren't really answering her call.

    To make matters worst, a special group of black-ops trolls have overrun Atlanta, starting gang wars.

    We get to find out what's going on with characters in the previous book, such as the mystery of Storm and the email - is he really alive? If not, who sent that email saying he was? Tzader and his vow to give up his true love, Brina, and if he can really do it to appease his goddess.

    I have to say, the story that had me biting my nails the most - other than Evalle's of course, is Quinn and the major mistakes he's made. Oh, and a family member whose decided now is the best time to pop into town. That is a character I really enjoyed and I cannot wait to see more of her in future stories. Of course, this particular relative can't just show up for sight seeing, oh no. She brings with her a whole new slew of problems.

    Man I feel greedy. I just finished this book and can't wait for the next one.

    The Kenyon-Love team has done it again. This is the best of the series, in my opinion.
    The hallmark of a great read for me is that I stay in that world long after I read the last line. That is always so with the Kenyon-Love collaborations.
    I'm so happy to see the character growth for our girl Evalle. This is not a romance, but I do so want a happy-ever-after for her. I'm gnawing my fingernails over some of the other characters, and finding I feel for and care about some that I used to hate. Now I'm worried about what will happen to them. I screamed "NOOOOOO" a few times as I read this book. But that's what a great read is about for me.
    There is no other writer or writing team will take you on a ride like this.

    This is the 3rd book in the series. It was as good as the first. A great read. Highly recommended.

    I love this series and am always anxious for the next book to come out. I'm an avid reader and the characters and story takes my mind away from the everyday stress of life. Well written. Can't wait for the next one to come out.
