When five-thousand-year-old human bones are found at a construction site in the small town of Woodsboro, the news draws archaeologist Callie Dunbrook out of her sabbatical and into a whirlwind of adventure, danger, and romance.

While overseeing the dig, she must try to make sense of a cloud of death and misfortune that hangs over the project--fueling rumors that the site is cursed. And she must cope with the presence of her irritating--but irresistible--ex-husband, Jake. Furthermore, when a stranger claims to know a secret about her privileged Boston childhood, she is forced to question her own past as well.

Review of 'Birthright' on 'Goodreads'

Loved it! This was a great family mystery/romance where two families that as far as they knew had no connections until they discovered that one woman (who is an archaeologist - not something you see every day in a romance novel!) is actually the stolen baby from the other family. So what happens is a race to find out how and why that happened, while she and her ex-husband discover their feelings for each other again. It's way better than the super short summary that I put - but it was still a great, non-series, just a single story to listen to while working. :)
