Goodreads

Note: Legacy isn’t a romance—it’s adventure/suspense with strong romantic elements. The two main romances in the book are between Gideon (sea captain) and Ramon (privateer) right after the American Revolution, and between Teag and Anthony in current time, and while the romances play an important part in the plot, the focus is on the action/mystery/supernatural elements. (Gideon and Ramon work forbidden magic to bind their souls together forever to protect the coast from a malicious demigod, and because they never want to risk being separated in the afterlife.) There are two secondary romances, an MM one between Dante and Coltt (privateers in the Revolutionary era) and between Cassidy and Kell (MF but nothing beyond a few kisses and cuddles). There is no explicit/on-page sex. Both Dante and Gideon are bisexual, and those pairings are important to the plot.

Also—there are massive crossovers between Legacy (and the whole Deadly Curiosities series) and my Morgan Brice series, especially Badlands, Treasure Trail, Witchbane and Fox Hollow.

The clock is ticking for Cassidy and her friends to stop the dark warlock, capture the goblin, and restore the guardian spell before a malevolent ancient entity takes its vengeance on Charleston and the coast.

Omens of impending disaster have the city of Charleston on edge. Tremors warn of earthquake risk, while a potentially catastrophic storm gathers strength over the ocean and heads for land. 

A last-man-standing promise among elderly veterans creates a dangerous inheritance involving an imprisoned, wish-granting goblin. A sea captain and a swashbuckler worked blood magic to protect Charleston from an ancient evil with a spell that bound their souls and their descendants to the task, but danger looms as its power fades. The head of a witch family wants artifacts and secrets—and he'll do anything to get them.

Cassidy Kincaide runs Trifles and Folly, an antique and curio store where her touch magic helps get cursed and haunted objects out of the wrong hands. More than once, she and her allies have saved the world from supernatural threats. 

The clock is ticking for Cassidy and her friends to stop the dark warlock, capture the goblin, and restore the guardian spell before a malevolent ancient entity takes its vengeance on Charleston and the coast. It's going to take all the magic, courage, and quick thinking they can muster—and for once, that might not be enough.

Cat gives this book 5 Meows...

This is a book 5 in the Deadly Curiosity Series. You don’t have to read in order as each book is a different story in an ongoing story, but reading from the beginning you have a better understanding of the characters and setting.

Cassidy and her business partner run a shop called Trifles and Folly’s that handles magical items that don’t need to fall into the wrong hands,  and make sure they get where they need to go safely. In this book Legacy, a missing bottle with a wish granting goblin inside, needs to be found before the demon is unleashed. In the meantime omens start happening; and hurricanes, and earthquakes start up. How can Cassidy and her group of misfits figure out what’s happening, find the stolen bottle, all with an evil witch on their tails? I may have forgot to mention, angry seawitches, ghosts , sea goblins, and sea Gods 

I love these books but I really love listening. This is a spin off from the Morgan Brice World’s as Cassidy is Simons cousin. I loved the narration. It keeps you pulled into the story, the voice is smooth and easy to listen to, and Keeps all the excitement going.
