We're the Deana-dhe. We're the men everyone fears...

Or so we had thought until the Skull Brotherhood steals the one thing more precious to us than anything else. Cyn. Our talented healer. Our original sin. Our soulmate.

To get her back, we're forced to seek the help of our enemies. Putting aside our need for revenge for the sake of the woman we love, we work together to find her. But when we do, she's not the same woman.

Broken by her experience, we must find a way to heal her or lose her forever. Cyn fixed our hearts; now it's time we fix hers.

Curses and Cures is a contemporary gang romance with dark themes and a hint of magic.

Hard Fought HEA!

I definitely enjoyed book 2 of this duet! It was chilling, gripping and beautiful! Cyn and the guys fought for their HEA and it was a great one!

Worth the wait for Audiobook!!!

I LOVE this world Bea has created and I am so happy with how much crossover there is back to Grim & Beast!

And the narrator choices this time!! Spectacular! I’m listening from the US and so adore accents. Some narrators can make the speech hard to follow when trying to play it more “rough and tumble” so to speak. And the male narrator did fantastic!

Bea… I can’t wait to see what’s next, and I truly hope you take us back to what I think of as Grim’s World!

A Brutal Journey To A Beautiful End

Dark, brutal, yet breathtaking. This story pulled me in from the first page, and didn’t let go. It’s a dark Irish mafia romance, and the stakes couldn’t have been higher. The heroine’s journey was raw and painful—she endured so much, yet her strength and resilience carried her through.

What made this book stand out was how deeply it explored both love and survival. The men weren’t just there as love interests, they had to fight, grow, and earn their place by her side. The reverse harem dynamic worked beautifully here, showing how different strengths, and flaws, could come together in a powerful way.

It wasn’t all victory, either. Not everyone made it out alive, and the grief that followed gave the story even more weight. But that balance—between heartbreak and healing, brutality and love—made the ending feel so satisfying, and well-earned.

This isn’t a light, easy romance, it’s gritty, emotional, and at times devastating. But it’s also about resilience, chosen family, and love worth fighting for.
