When Amber finds a great bargain on Egyptian cotton sheets from the marketplace, she can't wait to go to bed, especially if there was a hunky Egyptian man to share it with her. After a strange voice calls to her she passes out and wakes in Egypt, bound in shackles, with a handsome piece of eye candy staring at her. The sexy stranger, Seth, must marry so he can take his place as king and overthrow their current vicious leader who wants to see him dead. Seth has many secrets, one of which is that he is part man, part lion. More than the desert heats up as Amber learns firsthand that cotton isn't the only thing they do well in Egypt.
Excerpt:
"Your name is as beautiful as your eyes. They are like a mirage of crystal blue rivers in the middle of a dry, arid desert. When I gaze into them, I feel my own eyes taking a drink, and it quenches my thirst." The way he looked at her warmed her body, like a flame starting at her toes, blazing all the way to her head. "Thank you. I'm flattered. That is very poetic." "I am sure you hear such things all the time where you come from." She resisted the urge to laugh. "Actually, no." Unless catcalls from flabby construction workers with pit stains counted as flattery. "I am surprised. I would gallantly fight for you if you were my lady." This time she did laugh, and heartily. Men did not fight over her. Ever. Amber shook her head giving him a serious expression. "I don't understand. How did I get here?" "It was late in the evening when I found you here. I did not have the heart to wake you. With your beautiful raven strands lying across your cheek, you were so peaceful." "Not even a small clue to help me figure things out?" "Why don't you tell me what you last remember? Maybe I can help you with this beguiling mystery." She swallowed hard and moistened her lips. How long was she supposed to be chained up? Her arms were starting to tire. "The last thing I remember was going to an open air market. Our winter was unusually long this year, so I'd been itching to get out and explore. You can find the most incredible bargains at market." He nodded politely and smiled. His fingers circled around her upper thigh and trailed back down along her knee. She took a deep breath in, trying to concentrate. "I visited all of the vendors, looking for something that caught my eye. At the far end of the market was a man in a turban, setting out several stacks of beautifully wrapped sheets. I remember asking him what kind they were. He said Egyptian cotton. If you were to shop for them in any store in the city, I guarantee you'd pay an arm and a leg for them." The look on Seth's face was priceless. Amber realized how violent her words sounded. She laughed as she shook her head. "I think you took me literally. What I mean to say is, the sheets cost a lot of money. The vendor was selling them for a mere fifty dollars. Outrageous! So, I picked up a package. " "What makes Egyptian cotton extra special?"
