The Synopsis:
We only have one thing in common...we're both excellent liars.
A little white lie. That's what started it. How was I to know that a tiny slip of the tongue would result in the adventure of a lifetime?
When Theo Wilder stops in at the Lovebird Café, looking for an experienced guide to show him around the deserted caves surrounding Swallow Springs, I seize the opportunity to get down and dirty with the heartthrob scientist. Rumor has it there's hidden treasure on our homestead and I've been itching for a way to claim it.
But when Mother Nature fails to cooperate, Theo and I find ourselves short on luck and running out of time. We'll need to come clean with each other if we want to survive. And when we go deep? We might find more than buried treasure.
