Beschreibung

Zoe I've become that woman. The woman who lets herself fall under the spell of a man who only gradually reveals the monster that lies beneath his civilised veneer. By the time I realise I have get out of this abusive relationship, it's already too late. Ethan St John-Davies, one of the richest and most powerful men in the UK has me in his clutches and it will be virtually impossible to escape. I need to have all my wits when I leave him, and wth an ever increasing bounty on my head, my only chance at freedom is to take a job far away in the Arabic state of Amahad. Promising myself I'd never fall for a dominant man again, I meet Kadar and find it hard to fight my attraction to him. But whatever my developing feelings, there's no chance for a future with the emir. He is already married - to his country, and soon to be wed to a political bride. Kadar After the sudden, unexpected death of my father, at just thirty-four I've become the emir. And I'm far from ready to take on that role. Daily I have to try to prove myself to the tribespeople who question my ability to rule. Needing to appease them and to avoid a revolt I agree to marry a woman of their choice. But then I meet Zoe and take her under my protection. Little do I know as I teach her the difference between Dominance and abuse that she will find a place in my heart. But I can't afford to get close to her; my destiny is to be wed to someone else. As Amahad plunges into a civil war, I find myself fighting not only some of the ruling desert sheikhs but also the man who would do harm to the woman I'd do anything to protect. As I struggle to keep my country united, I'm in a race against time to keep the woman I've come to love alive, even though she can never be mine.

Manda's life's always seemed a bit weird, starting with a childhood that even today she's still trying to make sense of, then losing her parents in the late teens. Going from the tragic to the bizarre, who else could be unlucky enough to have had two car accidents, neither her fault, one involving a nun, and another involving a police woman? There isn't enough space to list everything that's happened to Manda, or what she's learned from it. But by using the rich fabric of her personal life, psychology degree, varied work experiences, and amazing characters she's met, Manda is able to populate her books with believable in-depth characters and enjoys pitting them against situations which challenge them. Her books are full of suspense, twists and turns and the unexpected. Manda lives in the beautiful countryside of Essex in the UK, the area's claim to fame being the Wilkin's Jam Factory at nearby Tiptree. She can usually find jars of jam which remind her of home wherever she goes. As well as writing books and reading, Manda loves walking her dogs and keeping fit. She lives with her husband of over 30 years, who, along with her son, is her greatest fan and supporter. Manda is thankful that one of the more unusual, and at the time unpleasant, turns her life took, now enables her to spend her time writing. Confirming, in her view, every cloud has a silver lining.
