A Cursed Embrace by Cecy Robson

A Cursed Embrace (Weird Girls, #2)

by Cecy Robson

Celia Wird and her three sisters are just like other twentysomething girls—with one tiny exception: They are the products of a curse that backfired and gave each of them unique powers that made them, well, a little weird.…

After Celia Wird and her sisters help master vampire Misha save his family, their powers are exposed to the supernatural community of the Lake Tahoe region. But fame comes at a price, and being “weird” isn’t always welcome.
 
To make matters worse, Celia desires the love of Alpha werewolf Aric, but his pack is bent on destroying their relationship to preserve his pureblood status. And once weres start turning up dead—with evidence pointing to the vampires—she must face the prospect of losing Aric forever. But the chaos only masks a new threat. An evil known as the Tribe has risen—and their sights are set on Celia and her sisters.

3 stars *only* because I'm not in any way a fan of demons in my stories. They're just too one-dimensional for me to be interested in, but they make good adversaries, I guess.

This book is quite a bit darker (see demons, above) than the first book, but it kept me riveted because of the characters. The sisters are that perfect dynamic - each with their own *very* unique personality and gift and their wolves, the same (I think Koda is my favorite). I can't say I really much cared for the ending although, way to stop my heart re; Shayna!!! VERY well done!, although I knew a conflict of some kind was coming. The author has set it up in a way that if feels like a happy ending of some kind is inevitable, and that's what will keep me reading. Don't get me wrong, I'm loving Misha - his name, his looks, his attitude - and I'm looking forward to seeing how the dynamic between Celia and Misha plays out.

Thankfully, the next book will be out in just 7 months or so, and I'm looking forward to reading it.
