Desert Prince's Defiant Bride

Julieanne Howells entertains with this passionate desert romance in her stunning debut for Harlequin Presents! A royal ruse... ...or a royal wedding? A pretend engagement to the future king of Nabhan wasn't part of Lily Marchant's plan for proving her brother's innocence, but brooding Crown Prince Khaled is quite insistent. The simmering chemistry they share makes playing his fiancée in public easy--and resisting temptation in private nearly impossible! Impetuous Lily couldn't be further from appropriate as a desert bride! Even so, Lily makes Khaled feel more alive than he's felt in years. And the thought of a real dutiful marriage grows less attractive with every moment he spends in her intoxicating presence... From Harlequin Presents: Escape to exotic locations where passion knows no bounds.
