Chloe falls into a new routine and becomes friendly with Trent. However, Chloe seems to be haunted by strange visions and panic attacks.

Now Chloe's life is in danger as she is caught in the middle of a century long family feud.

Eternal Curse is the first book of a vampire paranormal romance series. The author is upfront about this series being inspired by Twilight and The Vampire Diaries, so there are obvious similarities. Eternal Curse offers a unique storyline with some familiar elements along with well developed characters. Chloe captured my attention with the mystery surrounding her mother's death along with how she was carrying her grief while trying to fit into a new school and home. Trent's character wasn't as deeply explored, however, I did like the story of his creation, his family and the curse. The addition of the Zoya family also took the story in a different direction. I did like that Chloe's Aunt and Uncle were very involved and protective, especially with the deaths in town. The romance was sweet and not super rushed, although it seemed to move pretty quickly. I absolutely loved the setting in the Adirondacks. I have visited this area before and could easily imagine the waterfalls, back roads, school and even Adirondack Street. The suspense in the story swiftly picked up and continued through the surprising ending. I definitely want to see where this series goes next.

I'd never read any of Kara Leigh Miller's book but I'm so glad that I was able to read this one. Having the strength to go on after loosing your mother, moving to a new home and seeing what life could be for you. A rollercoaster of emotions with amazing characters, wishing that I would be there watching over all that is happening. This is a book that has to be read, then book 2 , and 3 , then start over and read them again. ( )
