Curse Me Not
Southern unsophisticate Elzetta Swan recently gained the ability to see auras and the more lucrative ability to clean revenge curses from those auras. Embracing the gift faster than grass through a goose, she’s about to finish her first year as a licensed "bodywasher" in Knoxville, Tennessee, with a countrified inner child that’s skipping all the way to the bank.
Suddenly a routine cleansing turns ugly, leaving Elzetta to suspect a professional invoker has come to town—one who’s hooked on the rush of setting particularly nasty curses. If that wasn’t bad enough, the invoker may be visiting at the invitation of a mysterious local with a malicious hard-on for revenge.
As Elzetta attempts to track down the invoker as well as the source of rage feeding the invoker’s addiction, she must confront threats to both her trendy new life and the hallelujah hankering she’s formed for the reluctant—and way too sexy—urban white knight who’s helping her. Will those confrontations end up creating in Elzetta a vengeful rage all her own?
The Story Behind This Book
Curse Me Not is unique because of its more realistic approach to the paranormal romance genre. My heroine’s world is not unlike our own, and my characters are three-dimensional adult men and women whose hearts have been nicked and scarred by real life. While writing it, I quickly discovered the humanity in my villains and the foibles in my heroes.
