5.0 out of 5 stars
Great read!, February 5, 2012
This review is from: Soul Reborn (Kindle Edition)
Soul Reborn was my first paranormal romance and it was a great read! Ms. Murray has created a fascinating world. I loved the use of Egyptian mythology. Asar and Lilly had great chemistry and I quickly became invested in their success. I also really enjoyed the relationship between the Carrigan sisters. Despite everything they have endured, the bond between sisters remained strong, and their banter added some light touches to an often serious tale. I couldn't put it down and look forward to reading the next installment! I hear another sister will get her turn in the spotlight...

A Load of Suspense!, January 31, 2012
This review is from: Soul Reborn (Kindle Edition)
Many possibilities....
Talk about a load of Suspense! This novel was quick paced and engaging. Who would've known one story could carry so much depth. The paranormal aspect of the story was over the top A.M.A.Z.I.N.G! The characters have strong loyal connections to one another. (Which I find really important in a story.) That being said. This book had me in control,whenever I set the book down, my thoughts were running about "what's going to happen next".
The 3 Carrigan sisters are in for a wild ride they never expected. As humans,they were brought up to be Huntresses. As their story progresses, their involvement with the Demi-Gods play a huge role.
The Demi-Gods, claim the humans are responsible for unleashing the curse when they unearthed a tomb and released a violent goddess from her prison.
Both the Hero and Herione were complete opposites, Lilly being a human (who despises any supernatural being) and Asar being a Demi-God (who hates humans) Clashed in all the right ways. Who were they fooling? Not me! Ha! They were two stubborn souls,but a match well made. I loved their connection. Asar is a sexy Alpha Hero and Lily is a kick-a** Heroine, just how I like my characters.
When all is said and done. There's a story behind every story. Like I've already mentioned,a load gets thrown at you left and right. I honestly don't think I had the time to breath. Lol! It was just that good!
I can't wait for the next novels to be released. I'm crossing my fingers that there will be 2 more stories,with these wicked sisters. Lily had her HEA, now Kit and Kendra need one. I can't wait to see which Demi-God they make quiver and bring to their knees with love for them. I'm excited!

A Fantastic read that will appeal to both PNR and UF fans, December 5, 2011
This is the first book in the series by Jean Murray and I want to start off by saying I was blown away by this book and I cannot wait to read the rest of the books in this series. This book had elements that would satisfy not only fans of paranormal romance but also urban fantasy fans as it combined Egyptian Gods and Goddesses, the walking dead, betrayal, and the world at peril against the backdrop of a hot and passionate romance. The premise of the book is that a strange plague has infected the world that has turned humans into the walking dead who crave the hot blood of humans. The only defense the humans have against these walking dead is a league of Nehebkau huntresses who made it their goal to eradicate them from the world especially for Lilly. Until that point in time that was her the only thing that was important to her until her encounter with a strange, powerful creature who turned her existence upside down. The moment she meets Asar she finds herself drawn to him and vice versa. Who wouldn't be drawn to the God of the Underworld who not only radiates power, but seduction with his gorgeous, muscular physique, shoulder length black
hair and dark piercing eyes. Asar has his own curse that he has had to endure that has left him with only hate and revenge to fuel him until he meets Lilly. There is something about her that tames and soothes him that he cannot explain since he has no soul to soothe. Yet the more time he spends with Lilly the more he finds himself opening doors within himself that he thought were shut closed for eternity. The building sexual tension between the two of them grows so intense that when they do get together they sizzle off the pages. All I can say is Asar really knows how to rock a woman's world, literally, and the way he is described and what he does will make you wish you had him for yourself. The other thing I want to mention is the author not only did an marvelous job of writing passionate scenes that were so hot that you wanted to put the book down to find your significant other at that very moment, but also writing such strong emotional scenes that you felt your heart ache with pain and sorrow. The secondary character were also so amazing. They didn't appear as filler as some do in other books, but were so well fleshed out that you wanted to know more about them. At some points they provided some wonderful light comic relief within the story with the main characters. This is a must read that will satisfy readers who want not only a hot, passionate romance but also action that will keep you glued to the pages and wanting to know what is going to happen next. I was extremely impressed at how much action did occur in this book and what makes me want to read book 2 is it ends with a cliffhanger. As soon as Book 2 is out I plan to get my copy and savor getting reacquainted with everyone and continuing where the story left off and finding out what is going to happen next with these wonderful characters. Key to the Cursed: Soul Reborn
