Guarded Treasure

Edith Taylor is ready to explore the ancient tombs she’s only seen in books. Her big break comes at last when she’s hired to act as translator on an infamous crew. There’s just one problem: the dusty, arrogant scoundrel who she’s partnered with. Sure, he’s been ordered to watch her every move… but does he have to look at her like that? Benjamin Brooks is about to embark on the most important -and most dangerous- job of his career. The one he hopes will be his last. But on the day he’s set to depart, he discovers he’s been demoted. After years of heading his own crew, he’s been replaced by a petit know-it-all whose never spent even a day in the field. It doesn’t help that she despises him from the moment they met- a moment that stopped his heart. On the outskirts of the remote city of Argo, submerged in a lush sparkling oasis, lies a tomb shrouded in mystery that has remained sealed for three thousand years. It is rumored to hold the mummy of a powerful Pharaoh’s first love who disappeared in scandal, and was completely scrubbed from history. Even the most accomplished archaeologists in Egypt know only this: everyone who has tried to open the tomb succumbs to the curse. Will these rivals work together to unlock each of the three doors of the Cursed Tomb of Argo? Will the fire of attraction that ignites between them thwart their efforts to break the curse? Or will their shared objective and undeniable passion go up in smoke?
