Romance Historical
Because of her psychic talent and her fighting abilities,
Fatima becomes the first female Khamsin warrior of the wind
and Tarik's bodyguard. Tarik, the sheikh's proud son, fights
to have her removed and assign her to a different
position... in his bed.
From very young, Fatima knew she must do battle. It had
nothing to do with her Sight, those visions of the future
tormenting her since childhood. No, Fatima knew her destiny
because every fiber of her body cried out for it...just as
every fiber of her body cried out for Tarik, her friend, the
impossibly handsome "White Falcon" who was next in line to
lead her tribe. They went together like the sun and the
searing desert sand, like a sword and a sheath. She had
been trained by her father Ramses, the old sheikh's
bodyguard, and though her twin brother was intended to take
over the role, only Fatima could do so.
Yet, women of the Khamsin were not warriors. And the sons
of sheikhs did not wish to have their lives saved by women
any more than they wished to fall in love with childhood
friends. Though he stared at her with passion hotter than
the very Sahara, it would take deception and devotion for
Fatima to protect her lord. Tradition be damned, she would
fulfill her destiny. And Tarik would love her forever.
