Desire under the desert sun

Trapped by desire and something else, you won't want to miss The Desert King's Pregnant Bride! Sheikh Khalid Bin Shareef and Ms. Maggie Lewis were like "two star-crossed lovers" when they met one dark, blustery and rainy evening. They were meant to be but they didn't know it; not at the time they first met nor did the handsome sheikh realize it until it was almost too late! Even taking into consideration how they were both raised, the emotional obstacles they needed to overcome; they were meant to be....lovers. Maggie was upset, soaked to the bone and realized what a fool she'd been in wanting to take her relationship with her boyfriend a step further. It was like a slap in the face when she found him in the arms of another; she flees, stumbles and is rescued by a handsome stranger who she later finds out is visiting royalty. Khalid persuades Maggie to take a ride from him and upon close inspection sees that she's troubled; instead of taking her home he takes her to the lodge where he is staying while visiting Australia. He's determined to soothe her by getting her warm and dry clothes, just talking to her to reassure and comfort her. He realizes he might be in trouble because he finds her attractive and she intrigues him; he wants to protect her and more. Khalid hasn't felt like this since his wife died 8 years ago and it disturbs him. While soothing and holding Maggie, things change and they act upon their attraction to each other (I call it fate). She gives Khalid the greatest gift of all, her virginity. However, the next morning she's determined to leave while Khalid sleeps; when he awakes and finds her gone, he's determined to see her again! On top of everything, his brother dies and Khalid is forced to return to his country and become the ruler. Maggie felt foolish and stupid that she was so trusting. She'd never felt loved......her father used, rejected and over worked her; her mother left and took her younger sister when she was very young. She had no sense of belonging, of being loved, self confidence as a woman, or that she might be desired by a man. It was painful to read about Maggie's childhood. However, that one night in Khalid's arms, and their passionate love making would stay with her for a lifetime, she was sure of it! As for Khalid's youth, his father was selfish; he only cared about his mistresses and Khalid's half brother which left Khalid on his own to forge his own future because he was not heir to the throne. Khalid married young; a few years later his wife died. He's vowed never to give his heart again. He desires Maggie, wants to see her again and arranges for her to travel to Shajehar on the pretence of purchasing horses. It's an accident which causes Maggie to be seen by a physician and later they both learn she's pregnant with his child. He's determined they will marry, she agrees because they are both committed to giving their child support, love and stability, something neither of them experienced when they we

The Desert King's Breathtaking Romance!

I love this book, right from the dramatic, passionate opening when two people whose paths should never cross share a night of unforgettable passion. A night with consequences neither foresees but which change their lives forever. Tall, dark, handsome, mysterious Khalid (yeah, he's a great hero!) meets shy, lovely, but courageous Maggie on a stormy night in country Australia. Then he's called back to his country of Shajehar to take over as ruler. When he realizes that Maggie is carrying his child, he has her brought over to become his queen. But neither of these damaged people expects love to grow in their union. The journey they both take is wonderful, really emotional and heart-wrenching, and it's wonderful to watch them change as the story progresses. Khalid gradually opens himself up to the possibility of new love and Maggie's confidence grows as she comes to accept herself as a valid candidate for queen and wife and lover. Lovely stuff! Another winner from Annie West!
