Where ancient Mayan gods awaken and passion burns as bright as sacred flames

Hidden deep within the jungle-shrouded pyramids of Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula lies a treasure that could unlock the power of the gods—the legendary Torch of Kukulkan, a mystical artifact said to channel the feathered serpent deity's divine fire.

Isabella Morales, a passionate Mexican environmental activist, has dedicated her life to protecting the Yucatán's pristine jungles from those who would exploit them. When ancient Mayan codices reveal the Torch's location, she finds herself reluctantly partnered with the last person she'd trust—Marcus Blackwood, a charismatic British treasure hunter whose reputation for acquiring "impossible" artifacts is matched only by his talent for breaking hearts.

Their dangerous quest: locate the Torch of Kukulkan before ruthless drug cartels claim it to fund their criminal empire. But the Yucatán's ancient wilderness guards its secrets with deadly determination—jaguars stalk the jungle paths, venomous serpents strike from temple shadows, and the growing attraction between the fierce activist and the roguish treasure hunter threatens to ignite a passion as dangerous as the cartels hunting them.

As Isabella and Marcus venture deeper into the heart of Mayan country, from crumbling pyramid temples to cenote-riddled jungle floors, they must battle not only criminal organizations and deadly wildlife, but the undeniable fire building between them. In a land where Kukulkan's spirit still moves through the jungle canopy, will their blazing romance prove to be their salvation—or will it consume them both?

Perfect for readers who love:

Action-adventure romance set in exotic Yucatán jungles
Ancient Mayan mythology and pyramid exploration
Mexican culture and environmental protection themes
Enemies-to-lovers romance with international intrigue
Strong heroines and roguish British heroes
Cartel danger woven into archaeological adventures

Set against the breathtaking backdrop of Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula—from towering Mayan pyramids to emerald jungle cenotes—this standalone novel delivers heart-stopping adventure, scorching romance, and a love story as timeless as the civilization that inspired it. From sacred temple chambers to modern-day cartel violence, Torch of Kukulkan proves that some flames are worth risking everything to keep burning.

Can be read as a standalone or as part of the bestselling Heart & Treasure series—where every adventure leads to the ultimate treasure: love.

ABOUT THE SERIES

Escape to a world of stolen artefacts, secret maps, and slow-burn chemistry.

The Heart & Treasure Collection by Cora Price is your binge-read if you love romantic action–adventure, globe-trotting mysteries, and clever heroines who can outthink a curse and outclimb a rival. Each book sends you to a new, cinematic location—Egyptian tombs, Venetian palazzos, Mayan temples, desert fortresses, sunken cities—where history isn’t just background, it’s the puzzle the couple has to solve.

Written for readers who devour The Mummy, National Treasure, or Clive Cussler–style archaeology thrillers but want more heart with the high stakes, this series blends:

treasure-hunt romance
rivals-to-lovers / partners-in-danger
elite explorers, scholars, and rogues
ancient legends with modern villains
one mission, one kiss… maybe one bed

Across the series you’ll find strong, capable female leads, protective-but-respectful heroes, and antagonists who’ll do anything to own the past. Every mystery is self-contained, but the universe is connected—so you can start at Book 1: Sun God’s Heart and read straight through, or pick the artefact/world mythology that calls to you.
