Out of Time
By Samantha Graves
Grand Central
August 2008
Simon Bonner is more than ready for retirement from the tomb raider business. The cutthroat tactics have left him divorced and more than inclined to believe the worst in mankind. However, when a former co-worker shows up on his doorstep, Simon knows it can’t be good news. Jack tells him some nasty tomb raiders have his ex-wife and if he doesn’t find what they want, it’ll be her death. Simon has no choice but to find curator Jillian Talbot and figure out what she has to do with lens Jack gave him before it’s too late.
When Jillian Talbot is approached by an unsavory character, she automatically suspects her family has gotten her into trouble again. However, when her attempted abduction is thwarted by Simon Bonner, Jillian begins to think otherwise. He shows her an artifact that looks ordinary enough but when Jillian peers through it the past comes back to life. She has always kept her gift closely guarded but now it’s the reason she’s running for her life with a surly, if somewhat, gorgeous sidekick. Since Jillian is the only one with the ability to use the lens, she has no choice but to follow Simon to Mexico and right into danger….
Romantic suspense mixes with the paranormal for one thrilling read! Graves pulls readers in as the plot thickens and the situation becomes more perilous for Simon and Jillian. They struggle with their attraction for each other as their search for treasure sends them deep into Mexico. Jillian knows this could be the archeological discovery of a lifetime but at what cost? Definitely add this fantastic read to your collection!
