"Haunting, immersive, and seething with dark magic."―Alexis Henderson Oprah Daily Top 25 Fantasy Book of 2022! In the 1920s, a lush, decadent gothic tale unfolds as a young woman slips into a glamorous world filled with illicit magic, tantalizing romance, and murder. On Crow Island, people whisper that real magic lurks just below the surface. But magic doesn’t interest Annie Mason. Not after it stole her future. She’s on the island only to settle her late father’s estate and, hopefully, reconnect with her long-absent best friend, Beatrice, who fled their dreary lives for a more glamorous one. Yet Crow Island is brimming with temptation, and the most mesmerizing may be her enigmatic new neighbor. Mysterious and alluring, Emmeline Delacroix is a figure shadowed by rumors of witchcraft.

Book Description
In a reservation where magic has been unrestrained for entirely too long, there is no rest from the wicked… After dealing with the fallout of a shape-shifting, fire-throwing demon, Lizzie, Belle, and Aiden are hoping the reservation will finally catch a break from the constant influx of evil. Those hopes are quickly dashed when Lizzie comes across the scent of evil and tracks it back to the clean-picked bones of a man. As it quickly becomes obvious that this is not a one-off situation and there’s now a demon with a taste for human flesh on the reservation, another problem arises in the form of a White Lady—a ghost not only seeking bloody revenge, but demanding Belle’s assistance to get it. And she won’t take no for an answer. But the greatest threat of all might be the witch who is a magical bloodhound. A witch who’s been sent to the reservation to by one Clayton Marlowe… Lizzie’s husband. What everyone is saying about Keri Arthur’s novels: I do enjoy this series. Arthur has created a cozy set of characters who settle into this initially hostile setting and has kept me coming back. Kathy Davie from Books, Movies, Reviews! Oh My! on Wicked Wings Hoo, boy. Deadly Vows is action packed (and humor-filled). Kathy Davie from Books, Movies, Reviews, Oh My! for Deadly Vows If you are looking for something fresh, fun, with a twist on witches and werewolves, then get your hands on BLOOD KISSED by author Keri Arthur and enjoy! Annetta Sweetko, Fresh Fiction. The paranormal Australia that Arthur concocts works perfectly, and the plot speeds along at a breakneck pace. Publisher’s Weekly for The Darkest Kiss Kick-ass women, strong, smart characters, mysteries, plot, action, a touch of humor and romance. Totally my kind of read. Anne from Books of my Heart for Cursed. The Lizzie Grace Series: -Witches and Magic -Werewolves -Slow Burn Romance -Paranormal -Supernatural -Crime Solving -Amateur Detective -Action and Adventure -Strong Female Lead
