Diana Grant does not fawn over celebrities. She has always been a quiet, serious type of person. A budding anthropologist, she is interested in facts - not romantic ideals. She finds it odd then that ever since she saw a picture of Catahasa Yazzie, the young billionaire CEO of a property company in New Mexico, she's felt herself inexplicably drawn to him. She finds it even odder that when she accepts a temporary position at his company's headquarters, he seems equally drawn to her. What Diana doesn't know is that her new boss has a secret; a secret with roots that go back to an ancient civilization older, perhaps, than time itself. When the fruits of this secret reveal themselves to Diana, will she be able to survive the encounter? ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Piper Fairweather.
