Cursed Beauty

About Cursed Beauty So, if you’ve read the rest of the Fantasy and Fairytales series, you know that this is the seventh book. Aurora and Phillip were such a pleasure to write. I was worried, like I know some of you will be, that I wouldn’t be into it as much because it happens 200 years before the events of the other books, meaning it doesn’t feature any known characters. BUT, I was wrong. This book quickly became my favorite. Just don’t tell Etta and Edmund. Here’s the skinny. In Golden Curse, Etta suffers under a family curse tying her to the Durand heir. You get a little bit of the back story and a few mentions of her ancient ancestors, Aurora and Phillip, but nothing more than some cursory information. Well, tada! This book explains everything. It’s the only true standalone in the series because it’s its own story with no influences from the others. In fact, it’s the other way around. Cursed Beauty shapes everything that happens in the first six books. And we get to see what makes La Dame such a big bad!! This is the story of the Basile curse and how it came to be. I hope you love it as much as I do. If you haven’t read the others in the series, hopefully this will leave you hungry to start from book 1, Golden Curse.
