—The End—

Falling for the Sheikh: Chapter One

Her father was going to kill her, Sara Kinsale thought, barely suppressing a groan. She looked around the dusty cell and grimaced. She’d been here two days. Two days when she should have been at the hotel in Staboul. Two days stuck in some backwater jail in the very country in which her father was trying to nail the biggest deal of all time. When he needed everything perfect to convince the powers that be that his company would broker the most favorable deal for the newly up-for-grabs oil leases.

She jumped up from the narrow cot and began to pace the tiny cell. She’d alternated between contemplating her parents’ reaction while trying to come up with a solution to her dilemma that might allow her to keep this from them—and the world press.

If her father didn’t kill her, her mother would guilt her to death with her soft sighs and her telling looks. She’d ask her father a million times, “Where did we go wrong?”

Sara blew her bangs off her forehead and leaned against the hard cinder block wall. She knew the drill. Her parents hadn’t gone wrong, that was on her. But not intentionally. Things always seemed to go sideways when she was involved.

First, she hadn’t settled on a career—not like her sister the attorney. Or her brother the nuclear physicist. Or even her mother, the perfect hostess, charity coordinator and helpmate to an international businessman.

She’d tried to find a niche that she could call her own. Acting hadn’t worked out, to the great relief of her parents. Nor nursing. She got queasy at the sight of blood. Being a childcare worker proved to be lots of fun—she loved playing with the kids. But her lack of discipline with the children got her fired from both jobs she’d found.

The latest job bordered on acceptable. Photojournalism was a respected profession. If she proved herself, maybe her family would begin to see her as a contributing member of society and not a flake who never settled on anything.

Only now she’d blown that as well.

The editor of the U.S. tabloid newspaper that hired her had been thrilled when she'd told him about her upcoming visit to Kamtansin. It was recently in the news as one of the newly emerging Arabian countries on the Mediterranean Sea. The plum assignment of getting photos of some of the royal family of the small Arabian country had been hers for the asking.

The assignment to interview some of the leading members of Kamtansin society seemed a piece of cake in Los Angeles. Especially since several members of the family were in deep negotiations with her father over the oil leases.

She’d meet them, bowl them over with her charm and get those interviews and pictures.

The reality proved one hundred percent opposite to what she'd expected. She’d been refused interviews and refused photo opportunities.

The worst, however, was being apprehended while trying to film the summer retreat of one of the leading families-despite being warned not to approach them.
