Bargain Book: Curses! by J.A. Kazimer




Curses! by J.A. Kazimer is part of this month's collection of Amazon's 100 Kindle Books for $3.99 or Less Books. Last month was the first month in a long time that the list didn't have a single fairy tale related title on it. This month we have one again, but be warned that it is "adult" in nature with adult language and situations according to the reviews--the subtitle alone shows that as well as the author's other titles. When I first saw it, I thought it was self-published since there is a plethora of titles like this in the self-published arena, but this is published by mainstream publisher Kensington books. In fact, the author has self-published some other titles and this one was apparently picked up by Kensington based on her success--yes, J. A. is a woman.

Book description:

I'm no hero. In fact, up until a couple of days ago, I was the villain. Kidnapped maidens, scared kids, stole magic tchotchkes--until I got into a little scrape with the union. Now I'm cursed with the worst fate in New Never City--no matter what I do, I gotta be nice.
So when a head-case princess named Asia barges into my apartment and asks me to find out who whacked her stepsister, Cinderella, I have no choice but to help her. And I'm more than willing to head back to her parents' castle and do some investigating if it means I can get into her black leather cat suit. Except this twisted sister has a family nutty enough to send the Biggest Baddest Wolf running for the hills--and a freaky little curse of her own. . .

"More than f***ed-up. Demented. Hilarious." --Mario Acevedo, author of Werewolf Smackdown
