This book was the only book I ever read by this author, so I have nothing to compare it to, but it's horrid. the author isn't consistant in her writing and the story line is so boring. The heroine Alexandria gets kidnapped from her French foreign escort in the desert by a band of nomands, coming to find out the prince who kidnaps her she knew as a child. But the story just drags and doesn't keep intrest where it should. It had potential but didn't use it. The villians weren't convincing to me. I just didn't believe in the end that she loved him at all, and he her. All in all I wouldn't recommend this book,unless you're very bored, lol. But can I make a suggestion if you're wanting to read something exciting and touching? Try Virginia Henley's Falcon and the Flower, or Raven and the Rose. Or something similar to this book I would suggest Johanna Lindsey's Captive Bride, which has similar story line, but much more exciting and interesting...=)

This was the first romance book I ever read and I believe the best. I read this book for the first time ten years ago and have just spent the last four hours looking for it on-line. I'm soooooo excited I've found it. If you love romance, you will love,love,love this book. I know I do.

Its was ok a bit longggggggggg but a ok read for me. 512 pages are a bit much. I really like that they were dreaming about each other though.
