Review: Cursed - Lucy Leroux

Cursed - A Spellbound Regency NovelCursed - A Spellbound Regency Novel by Lucy Leroux
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is the second story I've read by this author, the first being a much shorter story included in an anthology, and honestly, I've been asking myself why I waited this long to read more of her work. I'd like to say I'm a lover of historical romances, but in all honesty, I'm pretty picky about which ones I read. Cursed was recommended to me by a fellow book lover as something that I might really enjoy and she was so right.

A historical romance with paranormal elements, Cursed managed to capture my attention and keep it. I was drawn in by the mystery of Matteo's malady and the expense hit father would go to in order to help his son. Enter our heroine, Isobel who is hiding a secret of her own that could possibly be the solution to Matteo's curse and the story truly gets interesting.

For someone who is choosy about what historical books she reads, I found myself devouring Cursed. I found it well written and intriguing. Definitely an author I will continue following in the future

A Summer for Love Blog Hop #SummerForLove

The idea of a Summer for Love brings to mind many things. Foremost, it brings to mind a summer, almost 12 years ago that would forever change my life. You see, on June 15 th , twelve years ago, I took a huge step and married my husband. We had known each other a long time at this point. We'd actually met in college while each of us was already involved with other people. Having the same major and similar interests and many friends in common, he and I became great friends. Nothing ever came of any attraction that either of us may have felt towards the other. Now fast forward 6 years. We've both graduated and started our post-college lives and careers. Through mutual friends we reconnected and you know what? That spark was still there and burning just as bright as it had when we met 6 years before. It didn't take him long to ask me out this time. I guess it was finally our time. Both of us single, both already started in our careers, or at least headed in that direction. It
