First sentence: THE FIRST TIME Sheikh Riyaz al Hadid saw the sunlight in sixteen years, she was standing in it.  

  Her red hair seemed lit on fire by the pool of golden warmth she stood in, her skin glowing. Her lips were like cherries, her body a fever dream.  

  It had been as many years since he’d seen a woman as it had been since he’d seen the sun. And now, here they both were.
Description: The sheikh is entirely irresistible to the innocent 
She may be able to tame him  …but does she want to?
Taken as a political prisoner as a teen, Sheikh Riyaz al Hadid grew into a man in a dungeon. His first glimpse of Brianna Whitman is a visceral reminder of all he’s missed out on…
It’s Brianna’s job to reacclimate Riyaz to palace life and prepare him for his long-arranged royal wedding. She knows she should smooth down his wild edges—just like she knows that he’s already betrothed. But the forbidden attraction that flames between them makes her want to cast her innocence to the desert winds…
