I received this book from NetGalley and Harlequin in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
Summary:
Only scandal will do
Sara Williams's hand in marriage was bought to cover a debt. But she's determined never to marry anyone!
Diplomat Suleiman Abd al-Aziz must deliver Sara to her desert destiny. But with Sara set on escaping her marriage by seducing him, his iron will is sorely tested!
Review:
This is a short story for me but in reality I had a difficult time following. Things took forever to happen and I wanted more from this couple, they barely spent time together and we can clearly see both needed to talk more about their past and share some secrets. I understood the reasons from Sara to run away, because it's completely unfair to a single girl just to marry a guy because her father made a couple of mistakes, but my worst problem was the fact her family never appeared to talk and he brother has a normal life and never stopped to visit her.
I liked Suleiman better, because he chose to follow a different life and he still has friends and a normal everyday routine. Yes, bad things happen but he chose to move on and try to be happy. He also chose not to betray his ruler and that was a great deal for me. They are actually great together, but they need some shrink help fast, plus talk more.

This was one that I was on the fence about and glad I passed it. It does sound like it had a good premise just probably not the story for me.
