Romance Historical
At the 1893 Chicago World's Fair, the modern, the exotic,
and the ground-breaking collide. But Dora Chambers has more
pressing matters to consider. Hoping to begin a life of
wealth and privilege in Chicago, she sets out to earn the
approval of the Fair's Board of Lady Managers to appease her
ambitious, aloof husband. Unimpressed, they give Dora the
distasteful task of enforcing proper conduct at the Egyptian
belly dancing exhibition. But Dora's sensibilities are not so easily flustered. She
finds herself captivated by these exotic women, and by their
enigmatic manager, Hossam Farouk, who makes his mistrust of
her known-although his lingering glances hint at something else. As Dora's eyes are opened to the world beyond a life of
social expectations and quiet servitude, she finds the
courage to break free of her self-imposed bondage, and
discovers the truth about the desire and passion in her own
heart.
