Ramose, a priest of Amun-Ra, has angered the goddess Hathor.  Ramose has tried to kill the pharaoh, Akhenaten and his wife, Nefertiti.  Akhenaten wants Egypt to worship one true god, but Ramose believes all the Gods should still be worshipped, so he must kill Akhenaten.  Unfortunately for Ramose, he has interfered in the Gods purpose and Hathor believes a trip through time and a lesson in love will get Ramose back on track.

Elena Black, a movie stunt double, can’t believe the direction her current role in Cleopatra II has taken her.  Finding herself unbelievably attracted to one of the porn stars the director hired, she can’t seem to get enough of Ramose.  Just as she thinks her life is about to get back to normal after the movie, Ramose takes her on a little ride…through time.

Shifting Sands is a magical time travel that will make you believe you’ve actually visited ancient Egypt right beside Elena and Ramose.  These two face challenges and they fight to keep their attraction under control, but there are forces at work here that neither one of them can stop.  All the characters felt true to life and the descriptive setting will transport you.  I love reading of Egypt and was pleased at how well Ms. Savage pulled this one off.  I have to say Ms. Savage has a new reader to this series.  I definitely recommend Shifting Sands.
