       Dear Reader

      The desert has fascinated me for a very long time. In fact, spending time in the desert comes in at number two on my personal bucket list! As I’m not sure yet when I shall be able to get there, writing this book was the next best thing—and I have to admit, hand on heart, that I loved every single minute of it.

      Bringing Sam and Khalid back together was always going to be an emotional experience. They parted on such bad terms, and each has been left badly scarred by the experience. There are so many reasons why they can’t be together, and yet they both realise from the moment they meet again that the old feelings haven’t disappeared as they believed. There is still something there, something that draws them to one other, and it makes no difference whatsoever that they each know the relationship is doomed, that it can never work when they come from such vastly different backgrounds.

      Helping Sam and Khalid overcome their problems was a real pleasure. They are such lovely characters—brave, strong, determined and, yes, stubborn too! I always fall a little in love with my heroes and Khalid is definitely a hero to fall in love with. As for Sam—well, she is a woman who knows her own mind, a woman who has had to fight for what she wants from life, and I admire her gutsy attitude. I hope you will agree that Sam and Khalid get the ending they so deserve.

       CHAPTER ONE

      ‘NO! I’M SORRY, Peter, but I’m simply not prepared to take Samantha Warren along on this trip. You’ll have to find someone else.’

      Prince Khalid, youngest son of the ruler of the Kingdom of Azad, glared at his old friend, Peter Thompson. He took a deep breath, struggling to moderate his tone when he saw the surprise on Peter’s face. His response had been over the top but he couldn’t help that. It might be six years since he had seen Sam Warren but the memory of their last meeting was as clear as though it had happened only the previous day.

      ‘How about Liv?’ he suggested, refusing to dwell on the thought. He had done what he’d had to do and there was no point regretting it. He couldn’t have taken Sam to his bed, not when he had known that it could never lead anywhere. It would have gone against everything he believed in, made a mockery of the moral code he lived by. Sam had deserved so much more than a night in his arms.

      ‘Liv’s gone back home to Stockholm.’

      Peter shrugged, his thin face still mirroring surprise at the strength of Khalid’s outburst. Although they had been friends since Cambridge, Khalid realised that Peter had no idea what had happened between him and Sam. He had never told Peter and neither had Sam, it seemed.

      It was a small sop to his feelings to discover that nobody knew what had happened that night. He still felt guilty about it, still felt that he should never have allowed things to reach that point. The problem was he had wanted to spend as much time as possible with Sam, to enjoy her company with all that it had entailed. If truth be told, he had never known a woman he had wanted as much as he had wanted Samantha Warren.

      It was unsettling to admit it. Khalid forced his mind back to their current problem. ‘Phone Liv and see if she’s willing to change her plans.’

      ‘I doubt she’ll do that. Apparently, her mother’s ill and she’s gone home to look after her,’ Peter explained.

      ‘I see.’

      Khalid bit down on the oath that threatened to escape as he crossed to the window. It was the middle of May and the trees in Green Park were awash with fresh new
