When I read the description of Denise Grover Swank‘s new book The Curse Keepers, to be published 19 November 2013, I was immediately intrigued as I’ve always been fascinated with the story of the Lost Colony of Roanoke.

I’ve enjoyed a few of Keri Arthur‘s books, but in all honesty have yet to read her two most popular series – Riley Jensen or its successor Dark Angels. I was quite happy to see that Dell is republishing her earlier series and that the publisher shared book four, Kiss the Night Goodbye, in Arthur’s Nikki and Michael series with me for review.
