Amulet and Curse by Karen Hawkins


A Regency era Scottish romance series with the prequel set in the Elizabethan period. Hot spicy scenes, supernatural components, all-round entertainment. One unique feature of Karen Hawkins's novels is the democratization of the peerage. In her books, anybody and everybody, from knight to duke, even a 'mister', can be addressed as "my lord"; and peers can give away their titles and estates to whomever they wish, simply by making a will. This democratization may be appreciable, some would think, as evident from her awards; but this somewhat detracts from the vintage flavor. Other than this aspect, the series is highly entertaining.

Includes:

A. Hurst Amulet series

1. Much Ado About Marriage
2. One Night in Scotland
3. Scandal in Scotland
4. A Most Dangerous Profession
5. The Taming of a Scottish Princess

B. MacLean Curse series

1. How to Abduct a Highland Lord
2. To Scotland with Love
3. To Catch a Highlander
4. Sleepless in Scotland
5. The Laird who Loved Me
