A year ago tragedy shattered Mazey’s life into pieces. Since then she’s been scrambling to try to fit those pieces back together, but keeps feeling like she’s missing something... until she moves back home and sees Phoenix again for the first time in a long time. With him she feels like everything is okay, like she might be able to start healing. But how can she start healing when the past won’t stop haunting her?


If you have triggers, please read below to see them. However, if you don't have triggers, the book is better read without seeing them. Look if you have any!


TW  Abortion and mentions of r*pe, murder, & violence


 ******REVIEW*******


Mazey tragically lost her wife and was left with nothing. She was invited back to a place she once called home.  Not everyone welcomed her back with open arms. Her foster mother is rude and masty towards her and blames Mazey for her daughter's death. Mazey also runs into her wife's brother Phoenix, who she has a past with, especially on the night of her wife's death. 


This is my first story by Ciara Fineman. It was a very unique story. This isn't your average "triangle", however, a struggle of moving forward and holding on to the past. This story was heartbreaking, raw, and realistic. If you are looking for a happy ending, this is not the story for that.

The Curse of Time: A Time Travel Urban Fantasy (The Cursed Watches Book 1) by Andreea Pryde


 The Curse of Time: A Time Travel Urban Fantasy (The Cursed Watches Book 1) by @andreea_pryde 


Blurb:

Everyone knows the legend, but very few know it all. Of how the Watch came to be, and with it a fearsome Curse.


Forged by love and desire. Cursed by jealousy and a broken heart. Sealed to prevent a tragedy.


Thousands of years later, someone tries to break the seals without caring about dangers, consequences, or whose body must be stepped on to achieve their objectives.


☆Greek mythology,

☆cursed artefacts

☆a time barrier shattering connection

☆a sassy, talking kitten

☆ a Victorian Lord with an agenda

☆and more...


Scarlett Aubyn is at a point in her life where everything seems pointless. A broken relationship, money struggles, and a new job at the Occultism, Witchcraft, and Magical Artefacts History Museum. A fancy name for a place full of lies and charades, by her words. After all, she never believed in any of that sort. But for how long? How long can she do it when proofs lie under the tips of her fingers?


Among other things, Scarlett discovers a connection which defies and overcomes Time itself, between her and a young woman from the 19th century named Leah. With her consent, Scarlett is able to take over her body, and together unearth lies, deceit, and foolish ambitions which could ultimately destroy the future.


But what can a modern-day woman do, when her heart is about to be stolen by the past’s mysterious charm?

REVIEW


Scarlett was living a dull and boring life. She was in a loveless relationship with a douchecanue boyfriend, who was only about himself and his needs. The only thing keeping her sane was work. She worked in a mystical museum full of occult and witchcraft artifacts. She started hearing voices and discovers that she has a secret power within


This was a pretty cute read. Not one I'd usually go for, however, I am glad I didn't pass this one up. Normally, Time Travel stories are difficult for me and I am easily lost with the time jumps. This is a pretty quick and very easy to read to follow.
