A Curse of Power

Blood and Power Series, Book 1

By: Becca Storm

Narrated by: Becca Storm

Her life has fallen apart, and everything she had come to love and cherish has been taken from her. The future she had looked forward to has unravelled with a few words. Mae, a young woman in her mid-20s, finds herself in a state of emotional turmoil. She has been unable to establish a career in her field of interest since graduating from university and is now working a job that offers no sense of achievement. Her life is not at all what she imagined it would be when she was a first-year student with the love of her life by her side, and the world was yet her oyster.

Mae finds herself without a life plan and a broken heart. She lives alone and is barely making rent. Despite the once-exciting future she had envisioned, she now feels part of a world that doesn’t include her, feeling disconnected and out of place. To escape her reality, Mae reads fantasy novels and loses herself in the realms and kingdoms of the mythical and fantastical. When she isn’t dreaming of other worlds and beings different from her own, she daydreams about a handsome Lord who will come to save her from her existence as she longs for a better life.

Amid her pain and sorrow, her life is suddenly altered and set on a different course. Can Mae navigate the monumental changes that will impact her life as the fantastical fiction she once read about, with its unexpected twists and turns, suddenly becomes her reality?

If you are a fan of Sarah J Mass, Krista Street, Rebecca Yarros, Kate Golden or Eliza Raine, then A Curse of Power is for you. Fantasy meets reality as Mae is suddenly thrown into a world that is very different from where she was raised, where she discovers a whole other part of her history and the very fibre of who she really is at her core. Lost family, slow-burning romance, kingdoms at war and creatures you can only imagine are found in this Scottish mythology and Celtic folklore fantasy novel. Book 1 in the new Blood and Power Series.
