Crypto archaeologist, Kinley Dunn accomplished the impossible; translating an ancient Mayan text that stumped experts since its discovery hundreds of years ago. Rumored to hold the key to a vast and priceless treasure, Kinley is determined to be part of the discovery until she finds herself stranded in Guatemala without a way to reach her mentor.
Former SEAL Shane Ivers is searching for his purpose, but on this trip his only goal is to relax and catch up with his old teammates while exploring ancient Mayan ruins. What he didn’t count on was the smart and beautiful Kinley falling at his feet—literally.
An offer of a ride turns into a dangerous, heart-pounding trek through the jungle, while a simple vacation attraction develops into something deeper. With the help of The Leonidas Corporation, they’ll race to find the lost Mayan city, but there’s more at stake than priceless treasure and Kinley and Shane could lose more than they bargained for. Because someone wants the secret Kinley holds and will do anything to get it.

Found in the Lost, The Leonidas Corporation book 1 by Tarina Deaton
I was given this audiobook by the author for an honest review.
Kinley and Shane were a fun read. I don’t know why but I kept thinking of the 80’s movie Romancing the Stone. She is in trouble and he saves her. LOL
The way they meet is a funny moment but also you are wondering what is happening. They end up traveling together with his Navy SEAL friends when someone tries to grab them. Kinley is like what is happening and who are these guys!!!
Kinley is at risk and Shane, and the guys, jump in to help her. The banter between the guys is great. But the chemistry between Shane and Kinley is delicious.
Tarina has spent her entire life in and around the military – first as a dependent while her father was in the Army, and then as an enlisted Air Force member.
She writes contemporary and military romance about strong women and the men strong enough to love them. She draws heavily from her own military experience to create authentic characters who face real personal challenges while trying to navigate life and love after the military.
Tarina has since retired from the Air Force. She is a single mom of twins who keep her on her toes. Her favorite hobby is sleep. You can usually find her in the corner of a coffee shop trying to figure out how to get her characters to cooperate.
