Dark-Hearted Desert Men Series

The young queen of Haydar, Layla, is in the middle of preparing for her wedding. She's ready to sacrifice herself for the happiness of her own people. Based on the arrangement made when she was little, she is going to make a political alliance. He's the king of Qusay, Xavian, with whom she's never spoken before. Her first night is filled with nervousness, but she's unexpectedly treated with kindness and respect, and she finds herself drawn to him. But she also sees a dark shadow in his eyes.

Engagement to a billionaire, a huge feast and throngs of well-wishers. But at her own engagement party, Jasmine is far from elated. Thirteen years ago, she was exiled from Qusay over a family-destroying scandal. Though this marriage will allow her to finally return home, she feels no more than platonic affection for her new husband. But when she finds the soon-to-be King of Qusay, Kareef, among the guests, she goes from resigned to terrified as everything threatens to fall apart. Kareef is not only royalty-he's the man she secretly wed thirteen years earlier!

Though technically royalty in Qusay, Rafiq distanced himself from the throne, leaving his homeland at a young age and becoming a successful businessman in Australia. But fate leads him home when his brother's coronation ceremony approaches, and Rafiq returns to Qusay. There he encounters Sera, the woman who left him to marry another man. Sera has been widowed and now acts as Rafiq's mother's companion. At first Sera avoids Rafiq, but while journeying through the desert kingdom together the two slowly become close once again. Suddenly, Rafiq's brother renounces the throne, and their newly rekindled romance is threatened once again.

Tahir was in a helicopter crash on his way to his brother's coronation in Qusay. He was rescued by the beautiful Annalisa, who had been camping in the desert. Tahir suffered from amnesia, but he regained his health under Annalisa's attentive care. All alone in the isolated oasis, the two become drawn to one another and fall into each other's arms. The morning after, Tahir throws abusive words at Annalisa and drives her away. What happened to the loving man she saved? Was he only after sex all along?
