The Cursed Trilogy #2
Unleashed
MP3 CD Format
They were right. The stronger our bonds grow; the closer evil gets.
I've fallen for a charming Fae, protective Warlock, and a tempting Demon, all with sculpted bodies made for sin.
Our bonds are only the beginning.
To break the curse that obstructs all magic, I'm meant to connect--heart, body, and soul--with a brooding vampire who refuses to accept our destiny.
The vampire's internal struggle leads him into a deadly snare, a trap meant to lure me.
Despite Phoenix's arrogance and our terrible first encounter, there's a deeper connection I can't deny. A craving neither of us can resist.
Saving him is the only option, but am I walking all of us into a fatal mistake?

This series is awesome. The pace is building, the characters are gaining depth and the dynamic is steamy and sweet at the same time. The plotline is high-impact, and the magic is fun and riveting. Love it.

Thoroughly addictive
I absolutely love this series and the writing. The characters are exciting and have depth while the fast-paced plotline rolls on. Cannot wait for more, Betty Legend is officially a one-click author for me.

Book 2 in the Cursed trilogy and this was just as good as the first one. Selene gets to meet the last of her men and let me say it was hot. Loved Selene and her relationships with each of her guys. They each bring something to the relationship and she has a special bond with each that will melt your heart and your panties. As with the first book, this will end on a cliffhanger and now I am so ready for book 3 so I can see how it ends and if they can all find happiness and love that they all deserve.

3.5 stars.
I feel like this book flowed a tiny bit smoother than the first. Since we got info thrown at us left and right in the first we got to take things a little slower in this one.
We finally got to know our main characters a bit better. And we were able to take some time to enjoy them before shit hit the fan again. Which I thoroughly enjoyed reading.
And I’d say the writing wasn’t giving me the same sense of something being off like it was in the first book.
Overall it’s still not my favorite, but I’m intrigued enough to finish the series.
I have to know what happens with Phoenix.

Unleashed is the second book in The Cursed Trilogy serie by Betty Legend.
Selene's bonds with her guys is getting stronger. But the stronger its gets, the closer evil's is from them. The only one of the five guys she still didn't get to make a connection, is Phoenix, a vampire, who's still is refusing to accept this destiny. But there's a connection between them, and Phoenix can't denied that. The vampire is getting capture, and despite everything that went wrong with their first encounter, and that she could be walking into a trap, Selene won't hesitate to go to his rescue.
I have really loved this book and cannot wait to read the finale one in the serie. A lot of actions and hot scenes. I have received an arc of this book from the author.

This is the second book in this steal into your heart and captivate your mind reverse harem romance. You must read book one, Unbound first to get caught up. I'm loving the way things are progressing. The emotional bonds are deepening and the connection between the characters is strengthening but that doesn't mean there is smooth sailing ahead for the group. Some major challenges cause plenty of angst, tension and drama that will have your heart aching as you perch on the edge of your seat. Hang on for the cliffy and the wait for book three! So looking forward to it!! This is my unprejudiced review that I am freely posting.

Come on Betty, don't leave me hanging!!! At the end of book 1 I did not like Phoenix and didn't care if he was involved with the gang. Now, Betty Legend has made me feel bad for him and wan to help him. We also get introduced to the last man, and boy is he hot!! I love how he's all alpha and commanding. Emeric is still my favorite, I love how honest he is. We get to see more of Selene's family and learn more about the upcoming war. I cannot wait for the last book to come out. It's going to be an epic finale.

Have you ever wished to be a character in a book?!
Oh my!!! Yep this series is it for me. This is the second book in the Cursed Trilogy and you have to read the first book to get to know the characters in the series.
To be honest the first book had me wishing she didn't get stuck with Pheonix now the Author as always with her books...has changed my mind! She is however killing me because I NEED to know what happens next!
Just when I really start to get attached to a character.....
Can't wait for the final book!

This is part two of the Trilogy and the story picks up were book one ends and we get to meat Killian, the fifth male that is part of the curse. I love Killian, he is warm and caring, he is the earth element. But my heart is aching for Phoenix, he has been through the most and is suffering the most out of the 6 of them, and while he tried to hide the pain behind the anger and arrogance the vampire is suffering. This series is a must read for anyone that love PNR or RHM.

Oh wow, another emotional and exciting book! I absolutely loved it and am happy with where the story is going. Now, I can't wait for the next book and see what happens. I love all of these characters so much. I don't really have a favorite, though. And the story has enough twists and turns to keep readers second guessing things. Oh, and let's not forget all the hot and steamy romance scenes. ;) Before starting this trilogy I was doubtful since it's not a genre I usually read, but now I am glad that I gave it a chance because I'm loving it so much. I can't get over how beautifully the story flows and everything just fits together.

The story continues in the series, building suspense throughout the book and leaving me wanting more.... I can't wait for the 3rd one!
In this book we meet Killian and his relationship with Selene and her other supernatural lovers develops.
We also catch up with Phoenix who is a complex vampire and struggles with his role in lifting the curse.
I am loving this series and it is a great addition to my collection of PNR books - fast becoming one of my favourites.

This series has been amazing and riveting! I love watching as Selene gets to know her men better and their connection deepens. In fact, I've found that I really like Phoenix and Killian more now, even though they were not as prominent in book 1. But trouble is on the horizon as blood flows, and I cannot wait to see how good can overcome evil!

Book two continues with Selene meeting her fourth mate, Killian. Their attraction is immediate and natural as they quickly bond. With all of their magic and powers growing, Selene only has one more mate to bond with - Phoenix. With a lust/hate relationship, she begins to see this vampire's vulnerability and cold-hearted mask slip as he battles his feelings for her. Will Selene be able to capture Phoenix's whole heart, or will they all be doomed to be cursed forever? Can't wait to read the finale!
March 8, 2021
This book was so explosive! The sexy scenes were steaming hot and these men are just wow! I’m impatient to see what’s next. Phoenix has somewhat redeemed himself but now I’m left wondering.... If I had to sum this trilogy up so far in one word it would be addictive.

This series is action packed and is getting intenser and making me get more involved with the plot and characters. The emotions are getting more and more intense between the characters. I love this trilogy.
March 26, 2021
This series is getting better and better, I’m getting to know and love all the characters and I can feel the build up to a fantastic climax!
I’m loving Selene’s mating with Killian and the magic that is building inside her.
The plot is sexy and down right H. O. T. I’m still on the fence about Phoenix... I’m hoping to fall in love with him in the next book.
I can’t WAIT to find out how it all concludes. Well done Betty, another winner.

Second book in this amazing reverse harem trilogy and I thought I was hooked at the end of the first book Unbound. But now I am literally on the edge of my seat for book three. The twist are so good. Just when you think you know whats coming it surprises you. I love the way they love one another. Can't wait for the third book. I am so excited to see what happens next with Selene and her harem.
March 30, 2021
In the beginning of this one I almost thought I was going to not like it as much as the first book. Then I was very pleased with the direction it went and my mind was changed. The end was way more intense and I am eager for more! I find myself changing favorite characters as the story goes on because now Emeric and Phoenix are at the top of the list. I wonder if that will change again
March 10, 2021
I am really enjoying this series, another wonderful instalment. Lots of steamy scenes, drama, angst and action. A lot is packed into this story. Can’t wait to see how it all ends!!!

Just when you think the storyline becomes predictable- the tides turn! This second book in the series is hot, addictive and leaves you wanting for more! This time, more info is unveiled and I’m loving it! The last installment is what I’m looking forward to!!!

Unleashed is the second book in the Cursed Trilogy. It continues where the first book, Unbound, left off.
Selene's magic is getting the stronger the more she bonds with her fated mates.
I am loving the characters and how each of them are bonding, not only with Selene, but with each other.
I can't wait to read the final book.

Selene and Killian really heat up the pages when they meet and bond. Selene and her mates are wonderful to read about as their bonds grow and strengthen. Phoenix of course has to be the one to cause so much trouble, but the twist and turns around him and Selene keep you wondering what will happen next. I can't wait for the conclusion.

The more I read and get to know everyone - the more I want. It’s a wishful fantasy, maybe without the devil....
I’m looking forward to the third book in this serie.
I voluntarily reviewed an ARC of this book

This story is fantastic! I love some characters, then hate them, then love them again and are rooting for them. It’s such a roller coaster! One of my favorite things about Betty’s writing is she doesn’t fill the pages with inner monologue that repeats itself over and over. I find it so refreshing to read a book where I don’t skip entire paragraphs because I already know the information.
March 28, 2021
The addiction of this series is strong. Just like the first book, this one is just as amazing. You think finally everyone is going to be okay and is finally going to go right but bam,plot twist. Though I have a feeling in the third book there is going to be a big plot twist.
