City of Sand — Richard Smith

Twenty-six year old Valerie Case was the curator of one of the largest natural history museums in the United States and Cody Larson was the young owner and C.E.O. of Larson Engineering. Their divergent paths would eventually cross when Cody's company discovers an ancient relic hundreds of feet below the hot sands of Death Valley, California. Finding a 3,000 year old lost city had always been a fantasy for Valerie, and now, with the help of Cody Larson, her fantasy was about to come true - but not in a way she or Cody could have ever imagined.
