Diane Dunaway. Desert Hostage. New York: Dell Publishing Co., Inc., 1982.
Karim al-Sharif, the Sheik of El Abadan, is on a mission of vengeance. He is after the man
who killed his father, and make the man's family suffer as well. While incognito in Europe, he meets and
falls in love with beautiful Englishwoman, Juliette Clayton Thorpe. Unbeknownst to him, however, Juliette
is the daughter of the man he seeks to destroy.
When Juliette balks at his marriage proposal, he nearly goes mad with desire and proceeds to
abduct her and then brings her to his home in El Abadan. Juliette is furious at him for
capturing her and remains desperate and defiant. She seeks escape only to find
harrowing danger when she is no longer under his protection. Fearless and proud, Karim knows
that he alone can tame Juliette, and that between them lies the secret that will bind her to
him forever.
