Review: Cursed - Skylar McKinzie

Review: Cursed - Book #1 Born of the Blood Series - Skylar McKinzie - April 2018 This book had me at the fact it was witches and that it featured identical triplets. I had previously read her book Willow Woods and enjoyed it.  Cursed first introduces us to three sisters who have been betrayed by the ones they loved and burnt on the stake in Salem and accused of being witches, which of course they were, but they still didn't deserve to be treated this way. A curse was then put on the town and the people in it, Some turned into Vampires, and others wolves and the witches were reincarnated every 25 years, and a cycle would happen every time until a resolution was found . The other thing was the witches memory would be wiped every reincarnation, and they would have to come to everything on their own.  The witches this time are Stormy, Skye and Savannah Davidson and Halloween and their 25th birthdays are coming up, and strange things are happening in...

Along with the house he also inherited a valuable painting that has been the property of his family for several generations. He had to make a promise never to sell it and always keep it hanging in the exact spot. The old woman in it always made him feel uncomfortable, until one day when he discovered something different about her. The book is well-written, suspenseful and intriguing, casting a new light on the Salem Witch Trials. It is very similar to the Da Vinci Code, which questioned history as we know it. This book also ask the question 'what if?' and present a new theory to the circumstances which lead to the death of the so-called witches. Were they really witches? His own believes would be severely tested. The dee...
