Blackmailed by the sheikh! Tilda Crawford can't regret the short-lived romance she once had with Rashad, the Crown Prince of Bakhar. But now, having gained possession of her impoverished family's home, Rashad is blackmailing her over the huge debt her family owes him and insisting she pay his price – returning to his bed...as his concubine! Tilda is appalled – but in no position to refuse. Soon she's the arrogant Sheikh's captive, ready to be ravished in his far-away desert kingdom. And when Rashad publicly names Tilda as his woman...under the law of Bakhar they're now bound together for ever... as husband and wife!
