About this ebook
Some secrets can only stay buried for so long. . . .
Anna Lakeman has spent her life working alongside her paleontologist father, drawing intricate sketches at every dig. When they find dinosaur bones near their home in Wyoming Territory, they're given the opportunity of a lifetime and are swiftly caught up in the competitive era of the Bone Wars. But after her father becomes sick and Joshua Ziegler, an old beau, returns for the summer, Anna's world is upended, and the practical, orderly life she has made for herself shatters.
Medical student Joshua Ziegler left his hometown to forget Anna, the one woman he truly loved and deeply hurt. But when he returns, time hasn't erased the feelings they've always had for each other. After Joshua's nephew goes missing--just like his sister did years ago--and Anna's job is threatened, tensions mount and dangerous secrets are unearthed.
"Kim has long been a favorite author of mine, and her book The Secrets Beneath is no exception. This book is full of intrigue and adventure, twists and turns."--TRACIE PETERSON, USA Today bestselling author

Wow! What an amazing start to a new series! Having grown up in Utah and visited the Dinosaur National Monument in Vernal many times, this book really hit close to home. I loved the quotes at the beginning of each chapter from real life paleontologist Earl Douglass who discovered the first dinosaur bones at the site in 1909. Along with all the fascinating paleontology aspects is a fantastic mystery, nail-biting suspense, and a second chance romance. I was definitely hooked from the start!

Beautifully written & captivating! This is a story that is original, very well-researched/written, & has a lot of heart & emotional depth. I really enjoyed following these characters on their personal & emotional journeys & seeing them grow & change as people. After reading I feel that I've learned so much about the Paleontology scene during that time period. This is a story that focuses on the themes of: love, friendship, faith, & hope. I very highly recommend "The Secrets Beneath"! 5 stars
