He saved her life. Now it's her turn - to help him save his country. By marrying him.
Rafiq paid a sheikh's ransom to rescue Belle Winters. The ransom is a national treasure but also a traditional bridal gift to the sheikh's betrothed. Now his people expect a royal wedding.
Belle owes Rafiq so much. How can she deny him this sham marriage that will keep the peace in his fledgling island democracy? They're from different worlds. She's a dedicated archaeologist from an ordinary family. He's descended from a line of autocratic adventurers and buccaneers. Is their marriage simply a political necessity or a passionate destiny?
"This is what a love story should be. Annie West has created a strong, combustible twosome." ~ 4.5 stars from Sandra Garcia-Myers of Romantic Times
"With Annie West's first foray into writing about sheikhs, she did one heck of a job. I could not put the book down and even had to read it a second time. Belle and Rafiq are two characters who learn to give each other what is needed without sacrificing anything. I have to say that this book tops my list of favorites in the Sheikhs category...as long as authors like Annie West write so wonderfully about Sheikhs, I will continue to read and dream." ~ 4 Blue Ribbons, Shayla, The Romanc . . .
