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?
