Book excerpt: Five stories on supernatural curses. Including five kick-ass women. With five unique powers. On five different worlds. Skin Cursed Eight hours after being infected, they can control your mind. After eighteen, your life is over… Scope Agent Rye is in the fight of her life. Infected with the deadly Morillo virus, she has eight hours to get it out of her system or she’ll become submissive to another forever—and the only person she can turn to has already betrayed her once. Blood Cursed Pacifist Delia owes much to her friends in the alternate world of Kelm. When someone poisons the Tacium that keeps them alive, she must find the culprit and stop the vicious disease in three days…or it will wipe out the entire population. With millions of lives on the line, and the disease spreading like a rising tide, can she get her pacifist family to help save her immortal friends? Cursed in Sunlight Leah and her partner Xavier have won big at cards, but their chance for an even bigger prize goes down the drain when their winnings are stolen. To retrieve the cash, they must embark on a dangerous journey to Cave Town where they risk being cursed forever if they’re not out in 24 hours. Cursed Breath Every year thousands of people go missing. Coalition Agent Kerry and her team have tracked them to an alternate universe but an unexplainable sickness attacks them, draining everyone’s energy. To save her team, as well as the captives, and to prevent future abductions, Kerry must face an enemy she thought long dead. Cursed Succubus Kia’s life depends on her finding the fifth soulbar, a powerful object coveted by the First Families. They must never know she touched it, draining some of its immense power before losing it or the punishment will be extreme. But the First Families aren’t the only ones desperate for the soulbar’s power…an old enemy of Kia’s wants it for himself and she’s the only thing standing in his way.
