Blurb: Rival archaeologists Will and Jude slept together a year ago, on the night of the Summer Solstice at a dig in Stonehenge. But they were both wearing masks, so Jude has no idea it was Will he slept with, and Will’s been harboring a powerful, one-sided crush ever since.

Now they’re in Egypt, competing to find the lost tomb of Queen Nefertiti. Jude falls through a crack in the cave floor, and when Will reluctantly climbs down to help him, they find themselves in Nefertiti’s tomb, surrounded by archaeological treasures—where they must spend Christmas stranded by a sandstorm.

Will a few sultry hours stripped almost bare from the heat and sharing a bottle of whiskey sort out who should get credit for the discovery—and the real reason for the tension between them?

Review: Jude and Will had a great night together but they didn’t know that it was with each other. They are not exactly enemies but they are not friends either. They were searching for the same thing, but one small accident leads them to something they realize they should have been searching for, each other.

I was amazed that I had not read this author before but this was one fantastic read, for such a short story. I can’t say that I truly liked it but it was still pretty good. I liked the guys attitudes and lets face it, who wants a romance with not a bit of trouble. Feisty is one word for it.

I will definitely be checking this author out.
