It was an ok romance story, with a little bit of supernatural thrown in. I think she could have taken more advantage of the supernatural angle, but perhaps I read too many romances where they take TOO much advantage.

Really took me a while to get into. Lots of back and forth, but once it got good, it was good!

The main setting for this book is in Peru, near an archaeological dig. I was drawn into the ancient myth involved with this story. I could really see that old world coming to life! The present day theme of the tale was very intriguing, there were some good moments of intensity. The characters were believable and easy to relate with. It was a very original concept Fiona Brand put together. It was interesting to follow basically two tales set hundreds of years apart, yet also all at once. The only drawback I had was that it seemed to end to soon, I felt the story could have gone farther.

Paranormal romance. I've read better.

Recently re read this book and it was still a fairly decent read after the interim of the years.

Such a great story spanning time periods. A keeper.

This is the cotton candy of the genre. Purely fluff. That's OK though as that is why I read the genre.
