The irresistible call of adventure brings lovely Christina Wakefield to the alluring Arabian desert. But fate imprisons her after she encounters Sheik Abu, the strikingly handsome though arrogant adventurer, whom she had known in England as Philip Caxton.
Once Christina had rejected Philip's fervent offer of marriage. But now she is to be his slave -- desperate for the freedoms denied her...yet weakened by her heart's blazing desire to willingly explore her virile captor's most sensuous cravings.

I'm not a big fan of romance novels, but my cousin told me to read it since it had Arab characters and I'm sort of an Arabic language and culture enthusiast and it was actually a really good story.

Excellent, if not entirely believable story, interesting characters, a nice fairy tale type story.

The call of excitement draws beautiful Christina to the mysterious Arabian desert. But destiny imprisons her in the powerful arms of Sheik Abu-the handsome and arrogant adventurer she had known in England as Philip Caxton. I was a really good read.
