Celia Wird and her three sisters are just like other 20-something girls—with one tiny exception: they're products of a backfired curse that has given each of them unique powers that make them, well, weird…
The Wird sisters are content to avoid the local vampires, werebeasts, and witches of the Lake Tahoe region—until one of them blows up a vampire in self-defense. Everyone knows vampires aren't aggressive, and killing one is punishable by death. But soon more bloodlust-fueled attacks occur, and the community wonders: are the vampires of Tahoe cursed with a plague?
Celia reluctantly agrees to help Misha, the handsome leader of an infected vampire family. But Aric, the head of the werewolf pack determined to destroy Misha's family to keep the region safe, warns Celia to stay out of the fight. Caught between two hot alphas, Celia must find a way to please everyone, save everyone, and oh yeah, not lose her heart to the wrong guy—or die a miserable death. Because now that the evil behind the plague knows who Celia is, it’s coming for her and her sisters. This Wird girl has never had it so tough.

From Booklist
The four magical Wird sisters were each born with individual weird talents due to a curse that went awry. Celia, the eldest, harbors a ferocious inner tigress and has the ability to shift through solid objects and a curious allergy that makes her take on the form of any animal she comes into contact with. Her sisters accompany her to a vampire court where it seems certain she will be executed after being tried for murder. Fortunately, the court has the ability to see what transpired during the killing, and they determine that David, the attacking vampire, had been suffering from bloodlust, so Celia can go free. Now handsome Misha, David’s vampire master, needs to find out how his “family” is being infected with the plague and seeks assistance from the Wird sisters, while the very sexy werewolf Aric is trying to rid the area of vampires. Celia ends up caught between these two gorgeous alpha males in Robson’s fun read for those who enjoy paranormal love triangles. --Diana Tixier Herald
Review
Review "This is a funny book. Seriously, I was laughing and enjoyed reading every page. . . . The best part, though, to me was the interaction between the sisters. Each has her own personality and story, which makes the sisters witty and amazing individually and together. I'm looking forward to reading more of the Weird Girls and have put the series on my auto-buy list. If you're looking for fun, adventure, a messy love triangle and an awesome family, check out Sealed with a Curse." --USA Today
"Celia and her sisters are an eclectic bunch, determined to keep each other safe at all costs. As for Celia, she may be the leader of her family, but when it comes to romance, she has a refreshing innocence that is sure to delight readers. Robson clearly shows that family, the ones you're born with and the ones you create, are instrumental for survival--especially in this adventurous and enchanting ride!" --Romantic Times, 4 ½ stars
"Robson combines four sisters with supernatural powers, a murderous yet sympathetic vampire, and a frightening virus in an engaging paranormal romance with bite. . . . Robson skillfully builds a believable world near Lake Tahoe for this solid page-turning debut." --Publishers Weekly

I really enjoy the weird girls
By Jessie Potts
What it's about: This is book one of the Weird Girls series and involves four sisters, who each has powers that are ... well, weird ... and the cause of a backfired curse. When one of the sisters accidentally blows up a vampire (vampires aren't aggressive in this series), they're going to have to figure out what's going on before things get crazier.
Why you should read it: This is a funny book. Seriously, I was laughing and enjoyed reading every page. Celia is complicated and caught between two dominant men, both on opposing sides of the war/issue/complication. The best part, though, to me was the interaction between the sisters. Each has her own personality and story, which makes the sisters witty and amazing individually and together. I'm looking forward to reading more of the Weird Girls and have put the series on my auto-buy list. If you're looking for fun, adventure, a messy love triangle and an awesome family, check out Sealed With a Curse.

Fantastic
By The Rogers
The novel starts running right out the gate. And it doesn't give you much time to breathe and catch your breath.
Robson has a way of combining nonstop action and humor that manages not to wear you out. I mean, not only does it not wear you out, but it makes you hunger for more. And in a book about a hunger that destroys families and lives, it's both ironic and enjoyable.
The plot of Sealed isn't as straightforward as I thought it was going to be. I kept feeling like we were coming to the root of the problem, but glancing at my reading percentage I saw I wasn't near the end, so Robson kept me guessing. The guessing didn't frustrate me, and that's key. I like to be curious, not plagued by an incessant enigma.
I love each Wird sister for her own reasons, and Robson does a good job of showing her characters as a family, while still maintaining their personalities. I didn't get the "roll call" effect (where you feel like there are too many character vying for attention and you only remember them due to their name and one specific detail). I remembered the characters as people, like you should. And while I thought the pairing of the sisters with dates so quickly seemed too perfect and too cute, I still liked it. I don't know if that's because of Robson's style, because I thought each hunk was just that: a hunk, or if I was just so caught up in everything else in the book that it didn't matter. But either way--it didn't matter. Her characters are fun. And you can find something you like in someone from the crazy-ethereal-not-so-much-a-love-interest Misha to Gem--werewolf, Warrior, boyfriend and all around cool to Celia herself, who it's hard not to root for, `cause she's just such a bad-ass.
And the cast is diverse. There was so much great representation that I never once questioned the inclusive quality of Robson's universe. But how could I? The sisters themselves are of mixed race. The girls felt the strain of being the weird ones in more than one way. And Robson deals with that and many other moments deftly. I really like that in an amazing situation like a pregnant werewolf going berserk, Robson somehow makes the moment so human. I was impressed with her great way of tapping into real emotions for supernatural moments. Because they reflect the moments we all have. Brava.
My favorite part? The werewolves in the book are killer. They are killers. No, Warriors. And they're just so wicked. Huge beasts with the ability to heal so quickly that they do it before your eyes. Pack before anyone. Just...awesome. Have I mentioned I loved them? Oh. I loved them.
And if it's not clear at this point: I loved the book. It's just the shot of Urban Fantasy I needed, and if you're hankering, you should grab a copy.

Had some promise, but ultimately disappointing
By pounamu
"Sealed" is definitely not the worst paranormal romance book I've ever read. The writing, while somewhat juvenile, was fun enough that I stuck with the story. I liked the idea of four magic sisters, but felt that the author ultimately failed to explore and deliver on her own ideas. Here's why:
- Characterization. To say that all the characters in this book were painted in broad strokes would be an understatement. Calling them two-dimensional would be too charitable. Misha the Vampire is probably the only exception, but that's not saying much. Each sister might as well be named after a fairy tale dwarf: Grumpy, the second sister who only had two modes of communication: shouting obscenities, and shouting more obscenities in a louder voice; Dopey, the third sister who called everyone "Dude" (that was the extent of her personality); and Bashful, the fourth and youngest sister, who is described as timid and afraid through the whole book, yet she manages to save herself and her sisters on multiple occasions. Despite this, she is consistently treated as a half-witted coward by everyone around her. Aric, our main love interest, has two modes: bossy and protective. That is it. This is such a shame, because a more skilled author could have made the characters more complex and interesting. Same goes for the sisters' back story: there are vague references to past pain and suffering, but nothing concrete or with any kind of depth. Nothing that would add a much needed dimension.
- Plot holes and downright goofs. I found it hilarious that Aric, who lived for telling our heroine what to do and was very protective of her, failed to offer the sisters actual protection when it became clear that they were being targeted by the baddies. Instead of, I don't know, maybe posting a guard or two near their home and place of employment, Aric and his whole group of "Warriors" simply run off every time there is a text message of an enemy attack, leaving the sisters vulnerable to be attacked / lured into a trap / etc. The topic of holes and goofs brings me to my main gripe with this book. This is a plot device so cheesy, so juvenile and ridiculous, it was rejected by the tackiest and cheapest soap operas before getting snapped up by the author. I won't spoil it for you (hah!), but suffice it to say that the heroine learns something about Aric from a person who clearly and openly hates her, and instead of, I don't know, NOT believing this person, or asking Aric about it, she simply stops talking to him, deciding that their relationship is doomed. Even if actually talking to the person she supposedly wants to be with for the rest of her life in order to clear something up is NOT an option for our supposedly intelligent and mature heroine (bodes well for their future, eh?), then how about asking her sisters, who can't keep their mouths shut about ANYTHING EVER, to talk to their were boyfriends and find out if what she was told is the actual truth? No, our heroine doesn't want to bother. She'd rather suffer silently like an emo twelve year old. The heroine's defense of her idiotic behavior is that she has little experience with men. First of all, she has clearly dated, though not as much as her sisters. Second, this supposedly strong and bad ass character turns into weak mush whenever Aric is around, and becomes utterly pathetic. And third, this is basic human communication skills we're talking here. This one instance made me lose all respect for the heroine and the author herself. I now wonder why any man, let alone two, would be interested in this sniveling fool of a character, and I'm appalled that the author resorts to such cheap tactics to create some much needed romantic tension.
All in all, this book could have been much better. If you are someone who enjoys at least some complexity and emotional maturity in your characters (and I'm talking the bare minimum here), you need to look elsewhere. Same for character motivation and plot development. If you have any kind of standard for those things and a low threshold for juvenile stupidity, please save yourself some time and grief and try your luck with another book, for example, Molly Harper's Jane Jameson series. You still get plenty of banter, humor and family / relationship drama, but at least it's well written and acted out by people you can relate to.
