An ancient civilization with lost magic that could change the world -
A desperate battle between two men and the woman they both want for different reasons.
Danielle Taylor thought she was leaving behind the chaos of the big city, as well as the memory of her unfaithful boyfriend when she bought the old country farmhouse on the internet sight- unseen.
However, the moment she stepped foot on the abandoned estate she was confronted with intriguing clues about the mysterious disappearance of its previous owner, a local professor at the nearby University.
Even in her wildest dreams she never thought she'd find herself standing inside dangerous, undiscovered ruins in the wild country of Peru. Now all her fantasies could come true with a man who has unlocked the secrets of an ancient power and opened her heart to a passion she never thought possible.
If she made it out alive, it would be a miracle...Or her destiny
Excerpt
The scent of the jungle that night was rich and alive with a thousand heartbeats, all gathered and waiting at her feet. Far below, the fires burned along the procession path as they were lit, one by one, to show her the way of the balance.
She was alone at the top of the pyramid, but her soul was the pinnacle of Shadow Walker magic, and her people relied upon her to find the path for them all. Heavy mist coiled beneath each level with a wicked turbulence, waiting on each step of the altar should she lose her way and dismantle the future for her entire civilization.
She knew without looking that any moment the full moon would rise over the mountain crest at her back, she would sense the soothing silver light fall upon her bare shoulders and feel it creep along the delicate skin of her neck with the gentle kiss of ages.
It was coming. She was aware of it now, and out there, somewhere, he waited with his golden mask…waited just as she to don the mantle for their people. Her own trembling fingers touched the silver mold over her delicate features as it mystically conformed to her facial structure.
“Let me guide you,” a distinctive male voice called to her over the distance, and she had an instant vision of a man, resplendent in his ceremonial garb. It was his eyes that pulled her through the ether of spiritual currents they traversed. His beautiful hazel eyes, so full of light and color and everything she had ever known life could be.
The same eyes she had seen in the photograph the day before…
She startled as the otherworldly thought struck with distant familiarity, and the mask fell from her stunned face just as her body began to plummet to the depths below. She willingly let herself go into the darkness of the unknown… She had not found the way.

Bring together adventure, mystery, excitement, and romance, and wah-la!...you have Through Ancient Eyes.
Kimberly Adkins knows her stuff when it comes to the paranormal. She also has a knack for creating strong heroines. Danielle Taylor is just that woman. She's clever. She's also quite fearless as she investigates the missing professor/previous tenant of her newly bought country house/who also happens to be the hero. After literally digging up a magical mask in her yard, Danielle goes on one heck of an adventure to find him. Not only does she discover an ancient civilization, but finds her heart too. Following the hero and heroine as they banter through catacombs and portals to lost civilizations is fun and romantic. The passion between the two ignites on their very first meeting and doesn't let up until the very end.
Through Ancient Eyes is a breathtakingly fun story full of wit and charm, perfect for the romantic adventurer.
