About the book

The irresistible call of adventure brings lovely 17 year old Christina Wakefield to the alluring Arabian desert. But fate imprisons her after she encounters 32 year old 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.
