I recommend this book for the gentle reminder that not all curses are equivocal to ultimate doom. In Black Candle Women, through the Montrose women, readers will experience:

- how curses meant to break people can ultimately bond them.

- the reinforced power of family.

- an unsuspecting character becoming the catalyst of change.

- the inescapable emphasis on things happening for a reason.

- forgiveness is always an option. Nobody is beyond giving and receiving it.

- how protection can also be harmful.

I hope you pick this book up. It was a good time ;-). I look forward to seeing what other stories Diane Marie Brown will share with us.

Many thanks to Graydon House, Diane Marie Brown, and NetGalley for an Advanced Review Copy in exchange for an honest review.
