The most precious treasures are the ones we never expected to find.

Dr. Amelia Whitmore, the British Museum's most promising young curator, has spent her career playing by the rules. When ancient scrolls reveal the location of the legendary Jade of the Heavenly Maiden—a priceless artifact lost for centuries—she sees a chance to make archaeological history. But to find it, she'll need to venture far beyond the safety of museum halls, deep into the heart of the treacherous Silk Road.

Enter Li Wei—charming, skilled, and utterly unscrupulous. The infamous "tomb raider" has survived by his wits and a moral code that bends with the wind. His intimate knowledge of the region makes him Amelia's only hope of navigating the perilous route, even if his methods make her blood boil.

When rival treasure hunters, corrupt officials, and violent bandits all set their sights on the jade, Amelia and Wei are forced into an uneasy alliance. As they journey through breathtaking mountain passes and forgotten desert cities, cultural clashes and mutual suspicion give way to something neither expected: respect. And perhaps something more dangerous still.

For Wei, who has always worked alone, partnership is foreign territory—especially with a woman who represents the institutional power he's spent his life evading. For Amelia, whose career depends on preserving history with clean hands, every step with Wei compromises the principles she holds dear.

Yet as sandstorms rage and ancient traps threaten to claim their lives, the greatest risk of all might be trusting each other with their closely guarded hearts.

In a land where mirages deceive the eye, can they see the truth in each other?

Perfect for fans who crave adventure in exotic locales, "Treasures of the Silk Road" delivers heart-stopping action and smoldering romance against the stunning backdrop of one of history's most legendary trading routes. This standalone novel in Cora Price's Heart & Treasure series continues her signature blend of cultural discovery, pulse-pounding escapades, and love stories that transcend borders.
