Blurb:
He wants revenge. She wants survival. To get both, they must fight fire with desire.
Liverity Strongwill will stop at nothing to take down her evil tyrant of a father, King Grawl. He is currently hunting her and her siblings to solidify his immortal reign. Only one thing scares his dark heart. If Liv can find the mythic curse breaker and reunite with her twin sister and younger brother, their father won't stand a chance. Just one problem: a gorgeous, alpha warrior named Riserion just kidnapped her and pulled her into a pocket dimension from which there is no escape. He has a lethal ax to grind with the king, but he doesn't trust Liv at all. If she can convince him they are on the same team, they might just survive.
Riserion Ward finally has the means to his revenge in sight. He wants Grawl's head for the tortuous enslavement Rise endured as a child, and now that he has Liverity in his grasp, he has the perfect pawn to lure the king to his demise. Yet, as much as he tries to hate her, she's not the spoiled royal he imagined. His rage begins to blur into an addictive, dangerous hunger that can't be denied. Trust isn't something he gives easily, but to kill a monster, he might have to trust the monster's daughter.
As they travel through a barren hellscape, the greatest threat to their mission isn't the king, it's the lethal attraction pulling them together. In a world of dark magic and betrayal, a single mistake might cost them everything as they face one curse after another.
My Review:
Rise: One Curse After Another marks the thrilling beginning of The Cursed Heartbreakers Series by Cherie Marks, and what an exhilarating start it is! The story kicks off with a bang and only gets better with every page turned.
From the very first line, I found myself cheering for Liverity Strongwill, affectionately known as Liv, as she is abducted shortly after she and her twin sister, Valentina, or Val, step through the portal into Umbraland, the realm where their father, King Grawl, resides. Liv and Val venture into Umbraland with the hope of locating their father to break the sinister curse he has cast upon them.
Liv’s captor, Riserion Ward, or Rise as he prefers, needs Liv’s assistance to exact revenge on her father. Unbeknownst to Rise, her father will eliminate her the instant he lays eyes on her. Rise is driven by a desire for vengeance against the cruel acts Grawl inflicted upon him during his childhood.
However, Rise did not foresee Liv’s incredible strength and her fierce will to survive. Liv is resolute in her quest to find her father, break the malevolent curse, and will stop at nothing to achieve her goal. I’m placing my bets on Liv; she has the most compelling reason to triumph.
Rise: One Curse After Another is a truly captivating tale. I can honestly say I’ve never encountered anything quite like it before. Cherie has crafted an enchanting new world for The Cursed Heartbreakers, and I eagerly anticipate diving into more of it.
Once I started reading, I was completely engrossed. I found myself racing to the conclusion, fervently hoping Liv would manage to persuade Rise to aid her and her sister in escaping their wicked father.
I wholeheartedly recommend Rise: One Curse After Another to all enthusiasts of witches and magical tales. Don’t miss out, grab your copy today, and accompany Liv on her thrilling journey through Umbraland alongside Rise.
About the Author:
It all started with an old fashioned typewriter. When my family brought it home, I knew what I wanted to do. All those stories rolling around in my head could finally get out. The press and click of the keys were satisfying in their own right, but when I pulled out a finished page, I knew this was for me. Since then, I’ve graduated to a laptop, but the stories still find a way out.
