Her vow made in a London bar will take the virgin to places she never imagined in this marriage-of-convenience romance by Jackie Ashenden!

Her forgotten promise...his royal claim!

After disappearing from Sidonie Sullivan’s life, Khalil ibn Amir al-Nazari is back, as breathtakingly gorgeous as ever. Now he’s a king, and to her utter shock he insists on enforcing the marriage pact she scribbled on a cocktail napkin five years ago!

Khalil became ruler of a kingdom in disarray. He needs Sidonie to help him restore a sense of possibility — and joy — to Al Da’ira. Will revealing the singular longing he feels for her be enough to convince innocent Sidonie that he wants her for herself, and not just his queen?
