The Cost of Curses

From Lanne Garrett, comes The Cost of Curses, the first chapter in her Cursed Magic duology—a pulse-pounding folklore retelling, where the unthinkable has been thought, the unimaginable has been imagined, and the impossible has knocked on your door.

One failing curse.

One curser willing to sell her soul.

And a reckoning that has been coming for a century.

Be careful what you curse for.

Curses are a treacherous currency that buys naught but sorrow, where intentions are twisted, and payment is eternal. For Milesian curser, Faidh, that lesson is learned in blood.

While celebrating the Oíche Bealtaine festival, the ancient town of Falias is plunged into chaos as the Wild Hunt rides again. The curse holding back the Tuatha de Danann has weakened, shattering a century of peace. Soon, all of Falias will fall, with the eyes of the fae focused solely on the line of Milesian cursers who damned them.

With the future of Falias hanging in the balance, Faidh sets out to save her family and her people at any cost, even if it means risking her soul to damnation. In a daring move, willing to defy all laws, Faidh summons the forbidden. She comes face to face with a Fomorian—Killian, where she learns his attentions run much darker than she had ever imagined.

Pulled into his twisted web of lies, the Scale of Death gives her a choice. He offers salvation to her people, but it comes at the steep price of her life. She must find a key in the one place she has feared her entire life—the mounds of the fae, the very people hunting her.

Be wary, for not all is as it seems.

It is far worse.
