I enjoyed this fun, light romantic novel. I was intrigued by the Egyptian setting in the early 1900s. I know very little about the location and time period so I picked up many interesting facts. The main characters, Ginesse and Jim, are entertaining and the development of their relationship kept me interested. I would have liked more archaeological information and it would be nice if Ginesse could save Jim from danger sometimes. Even though the book was well researched some of the plot points were far fetched. Since I read it as a fantasy-adventure-romance the convenient coincidences and the ending tied up in a perfect bow were fine. Reread July 2014I was almost afraid to read this again because I loved it so much and was afraid it wouldn't be quite as good the 2nd time through. Boy, was I wrong! Amazing book, from beginning to end. Unlike its predecessor, it starts off with a bang and keeps on going. All the Egypt facts are so interesting that there is no skimming, you jealously hoard every word, even rereading passages here and there to savor the delightfulness that is this book. I LOVE Jim and Ginny, love seeing Harry, Dizzy, Grandpa and Magi again. I can't say enough how much I loved this book. Definite keeper!
Do You like book Other Guy's Bride, The (2011)?
This is my 2012 romance to beat. Loved it. Anything after this will be redundant ;)

Not as good as the first one in the series, but still a good, quick, fun read.

Fast, fun, romantic read. Lots of spelling errors that drove me nuts though!
