OUT OF TIME by Samantha Graves

SHE'S GOT THE SIGHT
For museum curator Jillian Talbot, her ability to see an object's history is her little secret. She never expects it to land her in the middle of a deadly battle for money and power between dangerous underground elements. The object of their greed: an ancient crystal lens that can unlock mysteries from the past... but only for someone with the sight. The one person who doesn't seem to want her dead is a cynical tomb raider who Jillian can only hope is worthy of her trust...
HE'S IN TOO DEEP
Simon Bonner has paid the last of his debts and is out of the looting game...until the lens lands on his doorstep. The other half of the crystal's secret is locked inside the eyes of a straitlaced psychic who still believes in doing the right thing. Now he must track the mystery deep into Mexico, where his desire to stay alive and his growing passion for the sexy seer make every move a dance with danger.
OUT OF TIME
Tomorrow could be history.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR: Samantha Graves

When I was a child, I used to sit in my backyard at night and pray for aliens to come and take me away. It's not that I didn't like my life; I just always wanted to see what was "out there." Over the next hill. On the other side. I found adventure in books, mostly fantasy, science fiction, comic books and my brother's Mad magazines. Turns out, that's the makings of a writer. Who knew? Many years later, I discovered romance and writers like Jennifer Crusie, Jayne Ann Krentz, Linda Howard, and Nora Roberts. On June 8, 1998, I decided that I was going to write my own novel. I had no idea what I was doing but boy did I have fun, and I haven't stopped since. Sometimes, you can't wait for the adventure to come to you. Sometimes, you have to make own.

Samantha resides in a small town in Central New York with her family and cat, and works as a technical writer when she's not writing fiction or looking skyward.
