Unbroken Curse
Historical suspense fantasy
Reviewed By Keith Mbuya for Readers’ Favorite
Nothing stays hidden forever, or so Jayden and Sofia’s parents would soon find out. It all started with the demise of their younger siblings, Amelia and Aiden, whose deaths neither Jayden nor Sofia had fully comprehended, leave alone come to terms with. What followed next was Sofia surviving a series of near-fatal attacks from her mother. This saw Sofia being put under the guardianship of her brother Jayden, who was an archeology student. Jayden and Sofia were confused by all the happenings, and their parents giving them sketchy explanations did not help the situation a bit. Perhaps what triggered their search for answers was Jayden’s encounter with an assailant (who looked exactly like his sister Sophia) while he was out in the fields digging up artifacts. Why would a stranger attack Jayden and why did the assailant look exactly like Jayden’s sister? What happened to their siblings and is there something their parents have been hiding from them? Find out more about Sophia and Jayden in Erika M Szabo’s Unbroken Curse.
Erika M Szabo whisked me away from reality and into a wonderland. She forged her engrossing plot with simple sentences, which she loads with a sophisticated vocabulary. Her choice of words gives an edge of mystery, suspense, adventure, and romance in her narration. There are secrets, agony, old history, premonitions, dark powers, a story within a story, and much more. She gives vivid depictions of her scenes and characters. This served to add color to her narration. The characters are exciting and fully developed. I found it easy to connect with their thoughts and emotions, which gave me insight into their actions during the next scenes. It also made me empathize with the characters, and love as well as loathe some of them. Sofia is portrayed as a young girl whose inquisitive nature is capped with a sharp mind and an ability to learn quickly. Some of the conversations were witty and this spiced up the reading experience. A young adult audience with a yearning for fantasy novels laced with a supernatural tale will love Unbroken Curse.

Supernatural fantasy
A powerful curse was cast
thousands of years ago by the Grand Vizier. Tanakhmet cursed Prince Akhmose to
never enter the Field of Reeds, the heavenly paradise. Why did he want him to

Layla, a young Egyptologist, inadvertently breaks the curse and frees the
ghosts of both Prince Akhmose and the Grand Vizier whose thirst for revenge is
stronger than ever.

Annoyed Kitty
Kitty doesn't like her new hat!
I had a cat lover neighbor in NYC, about 30 years ago. She was eighty-some years old, and her name was Karen. She knitted the most ridiculous hats and coats for her three cats. Two of the older cats patiently tolerated when she'd dressed them up, but the younger cat gave her some seriously murderous looks and clawed off the hats and coats as fast as she could that Karen had forced on her.

Restless Heart
New Release
Preorder: https://books2read.com/u/b5X7A7
Born in a brothel in Paris in the early 1700s, Madeleine's
future had been decided by her courtesan mother and Madame Claudine. Her
innocence at age fourteen would be sold to the highest bidder. She’d be treated
as a usable and disposable toy to fulfill her patron’s every perverted desire
until he tires of her. Then she’d become a courtesan to entertain anyone who
visits the brothel.
Madeleine dreams of a better future. She runs away and finds
temporary refuge in a convent, but she doesn’t have too many options when she
turns eighteen. Either going back to the brothel, becoming a servant with an uncertain
future, living her life as a nun, or becoming a filles à la cassette, one
of the King’s Casket Girls, since no reputable man would marry her in France
with nothing to her name. To escape her gloomy future, she
sails to the New World with hopes for a better life.
What will her future hold? Will she find happiness?
