Cassie Palmer had no idea how hard it would be, to do her job. Since the former Pythia died before giving her any training, it was up to Cassie, to find out exactly what she needed to do. Tracking a time traveler, who could help her, was proving to be dangerous work. Shifting back and forth through time is at times, still a challenge. Then having to deal with unreasonable body guards, was just too exhausting. Trying not to take her frustrations out on the guards, she realizes the person she must talk to is Mircea. After all, he thinks Cassie is his woman, no matter how many times she denies this. She knows he is trying to keep her alive, but she has a job to do. There are too many people who want to see her gone. Can Mercea keep her hidden and safe, from Apollo's wrath?
 
 
The Silver Circle was created, when Artemis realized that humans, were heading for extinction. She gave the mages a spell to banish her kind and that included, Apollo. The Circle fears what Apollo might do to Cassie. With both The Circle and Apollo wanting her dead, Mircea has his hands full, including trying to arrange an alliance, so they can defeat a god. Especially since they have a traitor in their midst. While attending a meeting, Cassie discovers they have been deceived, and escape is their only chance. As a series of events pushes Cassie closer to the edge, slowly it dawns on her, she may have read her dreams wrong. Finding out who is behind it will leave her shaken, especially when the truth is in front of her all along. Can she save herself and mankind against Apollo?
 
 
CURSE THE DAWN is Outstanding. The characters pull you into their world and won't let you go. Karen Chance creates the unique world of Pythia, master vampires, ghosts, and mages. The dialog is funny, the story is fast paced, full of intrigue with really hot sex scenes. This is my first Cassandra Palmer book but it won't be my last. For laugh out loud reading, this is your book.
