Cursed is a solid entry in the world of YA paranormal romance. Ember and her little sister Olivia are both different, but while Olivia has the gift of a life-giving touch, Ember is cursed with powers that take life away. (As if surviving high school, dealing with cute boys and the other challenges life has been throwing her way wasn't enough.) 
 When Ember discovers that there are people who are interested in her and her sisters powers, she doesn't know if she can trust anyone, but when the irresistible Hayden tells her he is on her side, Ember is tempted to believe him... 
 If I hadn't already been hooked by the Lux series, I probably would have been able to rate this higher, but unfortunately, Ember and Hayden have nothing on Katy and Daemon (sigh).
