Upon their grandmother's death, Tristan Northland and his twin, Will, come into possession of her Book of Shadows and the knowledge that their family is responsible for a centuries old curse. Determined to right the ancient wrong, Tristan sets off across the ocean to reverse the dark magic that affects the Sterling family to this day.
Benjamin Sterling might not be happy with his life, but it is predictable - at least until Tristan Northland shows up in his office, unannounced and with nowhere to stay. He has plenty of reason to distrust witches and Northlands, but instead of caution, he experiences two unexpected emotions: hope and love.
Review
Cursed by Rhianne Aile
This is much more than a werewolve M/M erotica romance. It is paranormal fantasy with a well thought out, original and refreshing plot.
Tristan and Will Northland are identical twins, who come from a line of witches, endowed with special power. Their purpose is to free the Sterling family from a curse laid down by one vengeful ancestor. The curse while turning the first born of each Sterling generation into a werewolf also backfired with the Northland dying young when they find true love.
Tristan, adamant in his mission, flew from London to New York to seek out Benjamin Sterling, the current first born. They realize they are meant to be together as Tristan is Benjamin's mate, which of course would trigger the curse. Tristan managed to break the curse but later did they know the consequence could be more detrimental. Here the curse breaking and the consequence is one imaginative piece of writing.
Both primary and secondary characters are well developed and appealing. The plot becomes more intriguing as the lovers find themselves involved with the local pack of werewolves who see Benjamin as a freak. This pack of werewolves is headed by one arrogant Alpha, Alex, and his beautiful consort, Raul, who used to be the Beta prince of a foreign pack. Alpha and Raul has their own engrossing side story and this couple is just as hot.
While the ending is satisfying and this story is complete as a stand alone, I certainly crave for the story on Will and Raul's twin which I hope the writer will deliver soon. The sex is lovingly hot and I like the attention paid to the animalistic wolf side of the werewolves. This is one hot paranormal M/M romance erotica with a fascinating plot.
