Rita Thompson was getting married. She just hadn't bothered to invite the groom—her boss, Sheikh Sakir Al-Nayhalm—to his own wedding. Rita had concocted the whole scheme to successfully reunite her alienated family. Everything had gone according to plan...until she found Sakir standing at the altar waiting for her!
And Sakir had a proposal of his own for the blushing bride. Rita would be his wife for three weeks in his home country of Emand, then they would dissolve the union. There would be no touching, no kissing...no taking possession of her delectable body. But there were some vows a man couldn't keep!

A place where amber veins run through pale sand like a thousand snakes beneath your feet, and white rocks rise straight up into a seamless blue sky. A place where the air is scented with heat and spicy wild brush, and the gods - the watchers of this land - stand erect in their sacred pools and welcome all those who risk so much in coming here.This place is Emand.
