BEDDED BY THE DESERT KING
Susan Stephens
Harlequin Presents
November 2006

Paperback
Contemporary Romance

 

Zara Kingston went to the desert city of Zaddara to get justice for her parents’ deaths. She wants to confront the man, who she thinks responsible for their deaths as well as her ruined childhood. When she meets a handsome stranger in the desert, who offers her shelter during a sandstorm, she doesn’t know that he is the man that she is looking for, the desert king Sheikh Shahin. She is shocked when she discovers the truth, especially because she feels attracted to him. Will Shahin find a way to conquer her heart and show her the truth? 

Ms. Stephens wrote with Bedded by the Desert King another fantastic Sheik romance. This book contains a very sensual and emotional story that will captivate the readers from the first page onward and transport them to the wilderness of the desert. The reader can feel Zara’s wish for justice/revenge as well as Shahin’s frustration when he discovers that Zara is a forbidden fruit for him, because she is not only his ward but also a virgin. The attraction between them is tangible from the first moment and not easy to deny, even as they try it. It’s fascinating to see how Shahin, the stubborn dominant alpha Sheik tries get back into Zara’s good grace. He really has to work really hard for it, because Zara is equally stubborn and determined. 

Ms. Stephens confirmed with this book her place on this reviewer’s auto-buy list. 

Bedded by the Desert King is definitely a must read for every fan of Sheik romances!
