| IN RUINS by Amanda Jean Kelly |
Archaeological expedition and excavation are fairly popular plot devices in romantic suspense. Be it the sparks and tempers that fly from being forced in close quarters at a remote exotic location, individuals' secret agendas, the excitement of the treasure hunt or the thrill of the uncertain dangers, there's almost certain to be something for every reader.
Here's a new release that looks interesting.
 An archaeologist and cave expert, Raul Ignacio has been offered a million dollars to find the staff of an ancient Mayan ruler in the ruins of Luchitak Temple in Belize. Using his life savings, he has anonymously funded an excavation of the temple in hopes of finding the artifact. A newcomer to the excavation scene, Theresa Tustin desperately wants to make a name for herself in the archaeology world. She seduces Raul with her competitive spirit, as she needs to distinguish herself to obtain the well-paying jobs she needs to support her ailing mother's massive debts.
When it's anounced that the excavation's funding has run dry, Theresa makes one last attempt to find the ruler's tomb and Raul tails the sexy vixen into the ruins. An unexpected cave-in leaves them stranded in the belly of the temple, their only escape a winding maze of caves beneath the mountains of Belize. With all of his money gone, will Raul find the staff and lead Theresa to safety or will he be left...in ruins?
