ESPRESSO REVIEW: A Curse of Shadows and Ice by Catharina Maura

ESPRESSO REVIEW:
BOOK: A Curse of Shadows and Ice
AUTHOR: Catharina Maura
GENRE: Fantasy + Romance
ESPRESSO RATING:
a magic world of curses, enchantments and unexpected trust.

THE FIRST SIP
The darkness and mystery engulfed me right from the start. I needed to know why.

WHAT IT’S ABOUT
● At first glance, you might think Beauty & the Beast, but this story is so much more than a curse.
● There’s forbidden magic, fate, lust, sacrifice, and a few surprises along the way. And the best part? She’s just as powerful.

WHAT I LOVED
• There was no forced romance. It grew naturally from mutual trust.
• I didn’t expect to love the enchantments happening inside the castle as much as I did, but they really completed the story.
• Karma. Everyone loves a good dose of karma.
