Description
Megan Holloway is startled when Professor Jordan Kaine informs her she must travel with him to Cairo to collaborate on a proposed contract for the Egyptian Agricultural Ministry. Sole provider for her ill mother, Megan can't leave her side. But Megan's probationary period at Wild and Wonderful Corp is up in two weeks. She can't afford to refuse the attractive Professor's request and risk her job.
Jordan Kaine, up for tenure, MUST win the Cairo contract. He doesn't want his growing affections for Megan to jeopardize his career. But when a student who filed bogus sexual harassment charges against him shows up at the Cairo conference vying for the contract and him, chances of obtaining tenure becomes tenuous.
With unexplained mishaps, smuggling rumors, and a dead body linked to his father's dig in Luxor, will Jordan and Megan make their own Cairo connection?

Featured Reviews
New employee Megan is tapped to accompany her former professor on a trip to Cairo for a conference where they hope to win a contract from the government for a sustainable agriculture project. She's still got a crush on him, and he is also interested, but has to think of his career. So, fighting their attraction is a main theme of this novel. There is also another former student who's set on snaring the contract and the professor who makes life interesting, as do some antiquities smugglers. The setting is wonderful, but I wish more had been shared about the country and the culture. It seems more like a convenient setting rather than adding interest to the story. As far as romance goes, the novel was fine, but it would have been even better if it had more cultural depth added to the story line.
