Mayan Nights

Mayan Ruins

by Ciar Cullen

Deep in the Mayan jungle, a brooding archaeologist searches for the lost tomb of a Jaguar King, but finds more danger and erotic passion than in his wildest fantasies. Deep in the wilds of the Yucatan jungle among the Mayan ruins lays the tomb of Shield Jaguar, once King of Pacal. Professor SinJin Twaine is a dark mysterious man, a renowned archaeologist who has spent years looking for the tomb. And at long last, he seems to have succeeded. Tamara Martin jumped at the chance to work with SinJin, jokingly known as the Ivy League Beast. Expecting a white haired, eccentric old man, Tam isn't prepared for the sexy, compelling, complicated young man she's been hired to assist. As the pair uncover the secrets of the tomb, the "curse of Pacal" seems to be more truth than legend-is the enemy sabotaging the dig real, or otherworldly? Tam and SinJin fight their hopeless attraction for one another in a battle of words and wits, until Shield Jaguar himself unites the couple from his eternal vantage point.

[JoAnne Kenrick · Rating 5 out of 5]

Fascinating read from start to finish -- Ciar delivered a romantic, sexier version of Indiana Jones in the novel Mayan Nights, complete with action and a beautiful HEA! I'm adding Mayan Secrets, the second installment, to my 'to read list' -- and will happily do so with any other Ciar books.

This was a quick and light read. The only reason it didn't get more stars was it really should have been longer. It was a short story to me and I'm not a short story gal. I will look for other books by this author though.
