The state of Margen is Grimm.


Eighteen months after moving from the land of Horror, Pansy Finster has made her home in Romance. All she wants is to become a paramedic and fall deeper in love with Fantasy Lord Theodor Fromm while avoiding Hauntings like unusual animals, crazy relatives, and witches.

As a member of Fairy’s royal family, life was never that simple for Theo, especially when a mysterious death makes him heir to the Margen Duchy. Unable to choose between the home of his heart and the keeper of it, he proposes for Pansy to marry him in Margen; home to Jack the Giant Killer, the Little Red Cap, and the Robber Bridegroom. Except Margen has fallen under a curse of disappearing magics and people--including Theo’s father, the duke. Pansy knows all about surviving werewolves and serial killers, but mountain giants and in-laws are another story. She must earn her place among royalty and help Theo save Margen from his tyrannical brothers: Dunstan the Night Terror and Oswald the Fire Breather. Friends and foes aren't who they appear to be as a sinister power rises to threaten every land in Fantasy…and even Novel. Werewolves and serial killers don't seem that bad now.


Continue Pansy and Theo's haunting and romance in "Don't Marry the Cursed," book two of the Haunted Romance trilogy, by C Rae D'Arc. If you like Seth Grahame-Smith, Christopher Moore, or Grimm's fairy tale retellings, then this dark romantic comedy will more than satisfy! Don't forget; be careful for what you wish.

5.0 out of 5 stars Another fantastic visit to Novel!

I absolutely loved the way the world of Fantasy was written and seeing how Theo and Pansy changed, especially gaining confidence, yet remained who they'd always been at heart. This book felt like never-ending action, but what else should fantasy be? I was surprised at how dark things got in Fantasy, but I loved everytime Theo or Pansy called up one of Oz's many survival gems on this new adventure. It's just further proof horror movies are really teaching us lessons so I should continue watching them! I cannot wait for October and book three!

I enjoyed Don't Date the Haunted and I was REALLY looking forward to Don't Marry the Cursed. I was NOT disappointed! The sequel explores more of Novel and introduces complex and interesting characters. I also enjoyed the references to lesser known fairy tales. I loved the power of the connection between Pansy and Theo. I'm looking forward with excitement and anticipation to the next book!

When you find surprises in both the plot and the details of a book it is always entertaining. The story of Pansy and Theo continues in Don't Marry the Cursed and builds upon the characters we met in Don't date the Haunted. Its totally Imaginative and fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars A new perspective
Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2022
I read this book shortly after finishing the authors first book Don't Date the Haunted. This book adds both a element of complexity by offering the story line through two perspectives, and dives deeper into the world of novel and the differences between the nations that make it up. All though it takes place in fantasy and follow more of a fantasy based story line you still get the seeping elements of horror coming through in the undertones of the book. After all you can take an individual out of Horror but apparently it is very difficult to take the horror out of an individual. This crucial next step in this unique story line will keep you on the edge of your seat so be prepared for an adventure of your own.
