Description: The Renegade Archaeologist...

Kit Carson was rumored to be a barbarian, an elusive legend who walked the narrow path between research and treasure hunting-and Professor Kristine Richards wondered about the outlaw who'd smuggled out a Tibetan treasure! But the man in the flesh was more thrilling, charismatic, and sensually compelling than any myth. Kristine trembled beneath the gaze of this savage god whose eyes held so many mysteries, whose hands and lips seemed to know her deepest desires. Kit hadn't expected this violet-eyed enchantress to be such a potent distraction... nor had he believed that any woman could awaken such fierce hunger, or such desperate jealousy It was his fate to possess her--and his mission to protect her from the man he'd defeated for the sacred prize. Kit had invaded her life with forbidden secrets, and she'd entrusted her soul to this spellbinding stranger. Was it her destiny to follow this heroic conqueror through a fabled labyrinth hidden in the mountain mists?
