Title: Curse in the Quarter (Bourbon Street Shadows, #1)
Author: Heidi McLaughlin & Amy Briggs
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Hosted by: Buoni Amici Press, LLC.
A cursed man. A haunted city. A love that defies lifetimes.
When fallen angel Bastien Durand walks the rain-soaked streets of New Orleans, he carries more than just the weight of his past—he carries the memory of a love that has haunted him for over a century. Working as a supernatural investigator in the French Quarter, he’s learned to live with ghosts, both literal and otherwise.
But when ancient magic begins stirring in the shadows and familiar melodies drift through the night air, Bastien realizes his greatest torment may also be his salvation. A brilliant librarian with eyes he’s never forgotten holds the key to secrets that span lifetimes, though she has no memory of the souls she’s carried before.
As supernatural factions clash and the veil between worlds grows thin, Bastien must navigate treacherous magic, old enemies, and the devastating possibility that some curses are stronger than death itself. In a city where the past never truly dies, he’ll discover that love—and loss—can echo across centuries.
But awakening the truth may cost him everything he’s fought to protect.
A moody, slow-burn paranormal mystery set in a New Orleans where demons, witches, and fae itself walk unseen among the living.
Curse in the Quarter is the first book in the Bourbon Street Shadows series.

ABOUT AMY:
Amy Briggs is a full-time author, editor, and all-around story addict with a passion for romance, mystery, and the occasional murder (fictional only, she swears). A former firefighter and EMT from New Jersey, Amy grew up next to a military base—an experience that continues to inspire the grit and heart behind many of her stories.
With dozens of romance titles under her belt, Amy’s dive into cozy mystery was born from her love of puzzles, small-town charm, and the satisfying thrill of solving a whodunnit. Her books are known for blending suspense, swoon-worthy moments, and characters that feel like friends (or possibly suspects).
Now based in Texas, Amy shares her home with more cats than she can count and two dogs who run the household. When she’s not writing or editing, you’ll find her on the mats as a brown belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu, teaching women’s self-defense, running an MMA gym with her brother, or plotting her next twisty mystery over a strong cup of coffee.
