Married to the Sheikh

After accompanying Samarah, the mother of the Crown Prince, home to Al Janeen, emergency doctor Alex Conroy expected to return home, but an earthquake in a distant part of the kingdom made her pause. She was a specialist trained in bushfires, floods and cyclones and knew she could help. Accompanying Azzam, the sheikh, out to the disaster area where Azzam treats the most badly injured, while Alex squeezes through a small hole in the rubble to lift small children out of their shattered  schoolroom. As evening falls, Azam points to tents that have been erected and insists they rest. Families will share, he advises, as we must. They will have a 'misyar' marriage, he adds, so no-one will think badly of them. Exhausted, Alex goes along with this bizarre idea but the more time she spends in the ruined village, the more she realises that a real marriage to this man would be the fulfillment of her wildest dreams . . .
