A cursed princess, a soulless pirate, and a deal that could change both of their fates. In a realm full of monsters, shadows are stolen, and promises are bound with blood… and sometimes marriage vows.
Princess by birth and sacrificial lamb by royal decree, Scarlet Midicious is ready to face her fate. She's known her entire life that this day would come. Her wedding… The gauntlet… and likely her funeral. However, on the night of the gauntlet, she meets a mysterious man with striking green eyes and a sin-worthy smirk. He has no knowledge of what her gift is—that she has an extraordinary ability to control the living like puppets—but he knows the king's daughters are gifted in some way or another. He offers her a deal. If Scarlet helps him win, then he'll make sure she has a peaceful life and a chance to see the world. In the face of a gruesome future, she accepts his terms. How much worse can it be? It's better than marrying a monster, and so far, that applies to all the creatures who have entered. There's only one problem... Okay, two problems. The man she's just struck a deal with is Sebastian Hook, a notorious rebel pirate wanted for crimes beyond her imagination. And there's only one thing the infamous Dark One hates more than Pan: Witches. And Scarlet happens to be marked as one. All aboard the Jolly Roger—if you dare. This Wicked Curse is an enemies-to-lovers tale featuring a slightly unhinged shadow daddy with a broken moral compass. The world is dark, but it's also full of adventure and magic. This story is a spellbinding fusion of Peter Pan and Greek Mythology, reimagined into a dark pirate fantasy romance, and takes place within Amanda Aggie's Seven Realms World. This Wicked Curse predates the events of This Wicked Fate. It is a standalone, like the rest of the Realm of Monsters series, and you do not need to listen to any of Amanda's other books to understand or enjoy This Wicked Curse.
