Book Description

A cursed pharaoh. A determined archaeologist. Three days to find true love. The dank depths of the Egyptian ruins reveal something I’ve been searching for my entire adult life—the tomb of the mysterious pharaoh, Nebtawyre Mentuhotep IV. And somehow, the sexy king steps from his sarcophagus very much alive. Lust soon overpowers reason as I fall down the rabbit hole with Wyre. He claims me completely—my mind, body, and soul. We only have three days to break a 4,000-year-old curse placed on him by his crazy ex. If we don’t, he’ll return to his tomb and take my heart with him. All books in the Supernatural Love Stories in the Absurd Series are stand-alone and can be read in any order.
