Escape from the Harem — Mary Lyons

For five years Leonie had tried to put the past behind her, make a new life for herself and Jade, the daughter her husband had never seen. Now, Badyr's sudden appearance in London had shattered her orderly life.

Hero: Sultan Badyr ibn Raschid Al Hamad
Heroine: Leonie Elliott
