Description
Sixteen year old January James is off to Egypt to spend a month on an archaelogical dig...one complete with a mummy's curse, a mysterious theft, and a numalicious hottie named Seth who just might be the reincarnation of an ancient Egyptian God...TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: If you find this letter, it means I, January James, am lost in the Sahara desert. The Sahara is in Egypt, right?
TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: If you find this letter, it means that I, January James, have fallen down the burial show more shaft of the Tomb of Tekhen and Tekhnet where I'm spending a month working as a conservator, and am probably lying at the bottom, dead from a broken leg and thirst...
TO WHOEVER FINDS MY SAND-SCOURED, WITHERED CORPSE: I'm dead. It's the mummy's curse. Don't blame Seth, he was just trying to help, even if everyone does say he's the reincarnation of an evil Egyptian god. He's not. I know, because no one who kisses like he does can be truly evil.
HELP! I'm stuck in Egypt with a pushy girl, a cursed bracelet, and a hottie who makes my toes curl...

Jan is on an archaeological dig in Egypt. Deprived of air conditioning, makeup, and decent clothes (but wonderfully away from her family!), Jan has one thing to look forward to each day: the hottie working next to her, Seth.
However, people think Seth is the reincarnation of the evil god Set - and thus he gets blamed for everything that goes wrong on the dig, including the theft of several artifacts!
Jan, Seth, and his brother Cy race against time to figure out what is going on - and Jan and Seth try to figure out their relationship through teenage hormones and misunderstandings (oy!).
Eyeliner of the Gods is cute. Jan can be annoying, but in the way of sixteen-year-old girls with (slight) self-esteem issues. If you like Katie Maxwell's show more (aka Katie MacAlister) other books, you'll probably like this one. show less

Cute story that’s a mix of mystery and romance with a possible ancient Egyptian curse thrown in.
