title: Unleash the Curse
author: Egan, Alexa
description: Only available as an enovella, the prequel to the second novel in the dark and sexy Imnada Brotherhood trilogy about shapeshifters in Regency-era England.
  
  Neither actress Sarah Hayes nor London's most eligible bachelor Sebastian Commin, Earl of Deane, has ever forgotten their one and only scandalous night of white hot passion or the differences in their social positions that make a future together impossible. So when they discover that they'll be fellow guests at a house party, they vow to keep each other at arm's length. A vow broken when they find themselves caught up in a mystery involving a brutal attack on an Imnada shape-shifter and an unexplained entity known as the Naxos.
  
  Each clue they uncover reveals more about the ancient Imnada enemy -- monstrous soul-feeders with the power to devour worlds. Each fiery encounter between the aristocrat and the entertainer underscores the raw desire that crackles the very air between them until Sebastian is convinced to make Sarah his wife, no matter the cost to his reputation. He just needs to convince Sarah, who cares for him too much to allow his future to be ruined by marrying a low-born actress. It's only when the sinister Naxos strike again and Sebastian's life is threatened that Sarah realizes she's willing to risk a little scandal in order to save the world…and the man she loves.
