About this ebook

 She yearns for adventure

On her way to France to marry the Comte de Beaulieu, Lady Heather Devereux is abducted by pirates and given to the Ottoman prince, Khalid. Although the red-haired beauty has no desire to marry the odious comte, she certainly doesn’t want to belong to a notorious warrior prince either. But as Heather gets to know Khalid, she can’t help but enjoy matching wits with the handsome warrior. Has fate brought her a grand adventure after all?

He plans his revenge

When his best friend delivers a red-headed spitfire to him, Prince Khalid vows to use her as a pawn to draw out the Comte de Beaulieu—the villain who killed his brother and sister. But Khalid can’t help but be enchanted by Heather’s fiery spirit, beauty, and courage. Is there more to life than his vow for revenge?

I really enjoyed this book. I loved that it was set in Turkey. It was very interesting reading about the Moslem customs and way of life. Most of all I loved Khalid and Heather and their love story.

Clash of Cultures and Pride This book is completely different from most medieval historical romances that I have read. I don't think I have ever read a book where the heroine was captured by pirates and then taken to an Ottoman prince as a gift. The lady in question is a cousin to Queen Elizabeth I and was on her way to her betrothed in France when the ship was attacked. When the pirate finds out who she is, he decides to give her to his prince. In the first scene between the prince and the lady, it pulls you in right away with the inherent conflict between them. It so happens that her betrothed is a sworn enemy of the prince. So their relationship is rocky from the start, to put it mildly. But this made for a quite fascinating relationship arc. It actually turns out they are quite well suited, even if they both fight it for a while. I like that he ends up having more respect for and treating her better than she probably would have been treated in England or with her French betrothed. I found this to be a very different but compelling read. I received a free copy of this book, but that did not affect my review.
