Product Description

Countess Elyssa Di Spadafiera is a wealthy and beautiful fashion designer with a successful career in Rome. Her fate is sealed when she unwittingly embarks on a dangerous adventure in an oppressive land where women are hidden behind the veil and men are strong, powerful adversaries. The Countess' strength and determination are severely tested when she must overcome unthinkable obstacles in her struggle to maintain her pride and honor.

With the aid of a mystical ruby, she entrusts her life to the powerful Sheik Rakan, who yearns to find the woman of his dreams to whom he can surrender his love and his dangerous secret. Together, they form a revengeful alliance against Elyssa's malicious oppressor, triggering the terrifying events that will reveal their indomitable courage and compassion amidst the threat of death and destruction, and sparking a fiery liaison that ignites their passion, inflames their latent desires and fulfills their destiny.

Set against the culturally diverse backdrops of Italy, Saudi Arabia
and Lebanon, "Sealed by Revenge" is an exciting, sensual romance
peppered with mystery and intrigue -- a poignant story of courage in
the face of oppression and love against all odds.

Inspired by her several journeys around the world, her experience in the fashion business, her encounter with unusual cultures and exotic personalities, Elly-Royce Laurens wrote Sealed by Revenge in a call fo self-determination before oppression, loyalty in friendship and strength in preserving one's love.

This review is from: Sealed by Revenge (Paperback)

WOW!!!!!!!! This is a fantastic novel that brings us into a mysterious, intriguing and sensual world showing, not only its beauty and history, but it's harshness of its culture. The emotional events are written with a tender hand enabling the reader to become engrossed but not repelled. Eloquently descriptive of emotions, settings, people and places, the author took me into the opulence of royalty and through threads of betrayal, spying, timely war, great love and revenge. Most interesting the factual scenes of oppression and lack of respect given to women in Saudi Arabia. I surely recommend this aunthor who is rapidily becoming my favorite one!!

Elly-Royce Lauren's Sealed by Revenge is a wonderful book that takes the reader exploring through far-away lands and into engaging relationships between chic protagonists in a modern aristocrat world. This romance with dramatic elements keeps the reader in a sizzling suspense from start to finish through its richly painted settings and fascinating characters with a dose of spice. The book reflects deep insight into the cultures at play. Great follow-up to Ms. Royce's first book.
