Death's Curses Kindle Edition

4.8 out of 5 stars 11 ratings

After one screw up too many, Esmeralda Barnes is shipped off to Seattle to start her first semester of college while living under the strict guardianship of her great aunt. She’s prepared to serve her time in simmering silence when she meets Charlie Campbell, the only person worth talking to at the tiny community college she’s being forced to attend. His efforts to scare her away don’t work, not even when he lets it slip that he has a psychic twin sister who helps their uncle—a police detective—solve murders. As the former member of a gang, Esmer’s confident she’s tough enough to take anything he throws at her in stride.

Then she has a near death experience. And Charlie is the first person on the scene. It turns out, his sister isn’t psychic but she does have a special connection to Death. She and Charlie both. So maybe this friendship will take a little more work than Esmer originally thought. But hey, it’s better than the gang. Even after being pulled into a string of grisly murder investigations, running with people possessing supernatural abilities, and dealing with the very real presence of a minor goddess, Esmer’s pretty sure hanging with Charlie is better than being back with the gang. Yep, pretty damn sure.

    I'm one of the authors who wrote Death's Curses and I just love how Clarice made my characters come to life. Jasmine is the unsung hero of this book and I knew from the moment I listened to Clarice's first audio sample that she was the one for the job. I literally thought, "Oh, my gosh, that's Jasmine!" My co-author agreed just as quickly. Clarice worked really hard on her Bostonian accent and aced the chapters written from Esmer's point of view. The whole project was a difficult task for Clarice, since this book is written in three very different points of view but I think other readers/listeners would agree that she did a phenomenal job!

    Charlie and Jasmine live in the basement of the police precinct. Their uncle is a detective there. Jasmine dies whenever someone dies in her close proximity. She feels their pain and just how they died. Then she lives again. Charlie has visions. Lady Death is playing games with them after their parents made a deal with Death to save their lives when they were born. This is no life for these young people. What an utterly brilliant story. I just could not put it down.

    I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.

    Death's Curses - what an outstanding book! Amazing story. Took me a bit to get the concept of the curse that the twins carried. Then as the story progresses and you meet, sort of, the other 6 people who share a similar curse. There are enough characters and a weaving storyline to keep to book flowing. I will say I was floored with the ending. This is a great book, a must read, very imaginative, truly a must try. Becca Fox and Martha Agundez went beyond anything I have ever read to create this story. Thank you both!! Loved it!

    I started Death’s Curses immediately after receiving a complimentary copy of the book from the author via Voracious Readers Only and was hooked immediately. I enjoyed the back and forth between the present story and the letters written in the past. It was an excellent combination of fantasy and romance.

    I could not put this book down. It exceeded my expectations in every way. I highly recommend this book even if it is not the type of book you typically read. I received this book for free from eBook Discovery. I voluntarily review this book. This is my honest review.

    I liked how this story was told from multiple character’s point of views, each character’s personality shining distinctly from another’s. I’d recommend this book for ages 14 and up, it shows a positive budding relationship between teens who respect each other while trying to navigate family, tragedy and a paranormal curse.
