An ancient prophecy. A sheikh's passion. One woman will ignite the flame that fulfills them both. A man without a country. Half Bedouin, half English, the Viscount Blakeney has always been Sheikh Altair Mazir in his heart. A victim of prejudice from both cultures, he's learned to trust no one. But a feisty American archeologist and the heat she ignites in him is about to change all that. And more. An independent woman hunting for a Pharaoh's treasure. Alexandra Talbot is used to men questioning her intelligence simply because of her sex. But the mysterious Viscount isn't like other men. He never questions her ability to find the lost city of Ramesses II, only her resistance to the sinful pleasure of his touch. An ancient prophecy. Bound by a Pharaoh's prophecy, desire flares between them beneath the desert stars. But murder and betrayal turn their quest into a deadly game, pushing their fragile trust to the breaking point. Their survival hinges on rebuilding that trust. Warning: this title contains explicit sex and graphic language.
