carefully orchestrated plot brings together chance and opportunity, leading actress Dana Morningstar to playing the role of a lifetime. When she and Sheikh Ashraf initially meet at fund raising event, sparks of attraction become transparent to onlookers when the Sheikh kisses her in front of a room full of people. Despite the sizzle, they both walk away, never anticipating another encounter.

Then her sister calls and Dana agrees to meet the men who hold her sister's gambling debt. She lacks the funds to pay the debt huge debt herself, and refuses to ask their father and risk the shock of his youngest daughter's behavior leading to another heart attack. Now Dana has orders to help these men collect a supposed debt with the Sheikh by informing them where and when they can serve a subpoena. Further, Dana has her own agenda with the Sheikh, and what she plans to say to him is not on any casino owner's agenda.

Author Alexandra Sellers once again demonstrates her masterful storytelling skills, weaving together the gilded world of privilege spanning two continents with extraordinary characterizations and a marvelous plot. The elaborate world of fund raising and gambling where extravagant sums change hands creates a dazzling background for this unlikely love story. The clash of culture and values results in an entertaining tension, thereby presenting a plot both impossible yet highly probable. An intriguing web of deception and lust, SLEEPING WITH THE SULTAN comes highly recommended.

It was a good romance book that was short and not to long. If you want to read something because that is the mood that you are in, but aren't sure if you are going to keep reading into the next day.

Sheikh Ashraf possessed the fortitude of a hundred sultans--still, he was mightily tempted by the seductive allure of the mysterious and ravishing Dana Morningstar. Never had a woman unraveled his restraint like the sumptuous television celebrity. But for Ashraf, romance was unfathomable-his objective was to seize his family's stolen throne. In this power struggle, was Dana a courier of danger, an assassin's bait? Ashraf's instincts said she was an ally.... Still, to control the vixen, he would keep her close as a lover. Perhaps a night of passion would conqure all doubt!
