Publisher's summary

Sheltered small-town girl Gretchen Brannon was utterly out of her element when she aligned herself with Sheikh Philippe Sabon, the formidable ruler of Qawi. They came from different worlds, yet she found a soul mate in the powerful, sensual man who'd suppressed his passions for far too long, and harbored a secret anguish. But he made this virtuous young woman aware of her own courage and, in turn, she aroused his sleeping senses as no other woman could.

However, now that Gretchen's heart belonged to the Lord of the Desert, danger loomed when she became the target for vengeance by the sheikh's most diabolical enemy. In a final showdown that would pit good against evil, could love and destiny triumph?

Not the full story

I have the book and read it and this one cuts way to short. Very disappointed that so many chapters were missed. There should be something stating this is a quick version with missed chapters.

They left out half the story. Very disappointed.

I cannot believe Audible left out half of this story. So mad. I have this book and I have read it several times, I am listening to this on Audible and am in the middle of the story when all of a sudden, they cut to the end. Why? Is this what I should expect from Audible? If so, I am canceling my subscription. Rediculous! Shame on you!

Lord of the Desert

I loved this book when I read it many years ago . The Audible book was okay, but it missed a lot of the story. The part when Gretchen goes home to Texas , and the Sheik goes to bring her to back. Or the part about the explosions at the wedding.I enjoy listening to the stories when I drive. I would have e noted the whole story!

Great Romance!

This book was a great read! The narrarator did a good job with the accents, etc. The story was slightly witty and romantic. Although predictable, I enjoyed it anyway. For a good romance, I highly recommend.
