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?

** I WAS GIVEN THIS BOOK FOR MY READING PLEASURE **
This is Blue Jones' debut story, and it's a super cute one. I really loved the atmosphere, the attention to detail and description. As a huge fan of Ancient Egypt, and an archaeological student, I was eager but apprehensive about reading this one. But, the plot was well written, the archaeological information was appropriate for the length of the story, and accurate and not overly academic. I love that it was easy to follow, that there was a really nice chemistry between the two MC's from the start. There was a hint of enemies-to-lovers, and second-chance romance. I would love to read this as a novel, to really explore the before and after aspects of the relationship. And I'll definitely be reading Blue Jones again.
