Alric, the Lord of Glanworth was cursed as a child and to this day has done everything within his power to keep his people safe from that curse. Alric is plagued with a beast that constantly threatens to take over his will and he is terrified of the outcome that may ensue. Godric, his dearest friend has plans that may tame his beast, or at best cure him. He thinks that a woman holds the key to his future. It just so happens that the woman has totally captivated Alric from first glance.

Caasi is from a clan of people who were thought to be mystics. They were a secretive people and wandered from place to place. Caasi just happened to be the granddaughter of her peopleʼs wise woman. Although most outsiders considered her a witch, she was just a novice who would one day take over when her grandmother passed. Caasi is fascinated by Alric and offers to help at Godricʼs insistence. But before anything can be done, Alric and his people are attacked leaving most of his soldiers dead. Caasi goes to her grandmother for guidance and seeks out her assistance so that she may follow her heart.

Caasi and Alric seem doomed from the start. Alric learns in order to change his future he must let go in all ways. A being used to living in constant control, Alric finds this distasteful. But in order to recover from his curse, he will have to trust in something and someone, as he never has before. CURSED BY MOONLIGHT offers an interesting change from typical shape shifter stories and contains very erotic romance.
