Sadiq and Samia...ahh...what a couple... He's the playboy sultan of an oil-rich Arab country. She's a princess from a neighboring country. He's decided it's time to marry...an arranged marriage so there are none of those sticky emotions involved. He'll have a wife and heirs and continue on with the business of running the government. She's led a quiet life with no skeletons lurking anywhere. She's also shy and mousy. She's the perfect candidate for a wife. One problem...she doesn't want to marry him. She knows his past with beautiful women hanging on his arm and knows she can never compete with her average looks and body. Sadiq eventually talks her into it and she's scared to death. You've got to read this book and see him tie himself in knots trying not to feel anything for her. It's just lust, right? That's ok. He can handle lust. Both shy away from anything resembling the "L" word. Their childhoods make them run far in the opposite direction of any tender emotions. But life doesn't always give you what you want...sometimes it gives you what you need.
