Some many unexpected twist and turns. This book takes no time getting into the action. And nothing is as it has seemed her whole life. Is Anne even who she truly is? The romance is heart stopping, true love is an all in kind of love. You'll also get some great humor out of Ainsley, you love him. Anne must now learn to fight for the future she wants and the destiny others believe she is meant.

Good intro
This sets up the series nicely and alludes to the kush scenery to come in terms of meta plot. While I was a bit disappointed in how some of this played out, and the reactions of the characters, I still found quite a bit of sympathy with the FMC and her confusing predicament. I wonder how she is going to cope, big just with the mate thing, but the mother issue....
Pros:
- Good first few pages, opened the story right up.
- The mark growth is unique.
- Leaves us with more questions.
Cons:
- Some info dump syndrome due to first book curse
- Reactions not always, or even remotely, understandable.
- World building is a bit muddled.

I have a particular fondness with Fantasy/Paranormal based Reverse Harem stories. I do not know if it’s because of the juggling the author is required to do with all the characters, or just because I normally get a HEA out of them. This is a new author to me, and I will get to meet her in a couple of months so wanted to give her a read.
I like where the author is going with the story, I like that Anne has a shifter DRAGON as her first mate and I feel her characters are solid. I already have some characters that I dislike and it’s going to take a long time for them to redeem themselves, I adore where the first & second “escape” houses are located, and can I just say, every girl should be so lucky to have two amazing uncles that Anne/Emelia has! So truly, best story ever, no, but that is a very soft no, and I am interested enough to continue to the next story, and I’ll like being able to ask the author questions about it when I meet her. As most RH stories this will carry over a few books as Anne/Emelia grows into her own powers as she meets the rest of her harem.

half caster and half dragon Emi isn't supposed to be alive, she came from a forbidden love, but with a curse handed down by her mother in a form of a growing mark, she was taken and hid from the supernatural world. Xan a dragon shifter is just great I love his character a lot. I just love them together. one scene has me weeping and I hope everything will turn out ok. I love the emotion in this book you can feel it rolling of the pages especially with the way Emi is worried that the Council will find her. also I was surprised at the cabin scenes and with what happened there.

Curse Marked had me hooked right from the first page and I didn't want it to end. Emi's life just took a major turn when she is thrown into a world she didn't know existed where she has family and mates. Emi is the result of an illegal romance and some aren't happy about this and are out to get her. Others are on her side. The characters are great and the abilities of the characters are fun. Some sexy scenes with Emilia and one of her romantic interests, but we also meet another one so will be interesting to see where that goes. Ends on a bit of a cliff hanger so can't wait to see what happens next.
