Susan Mallery. The Sheik & the Princess Bride. New York: Silhouette, 2004.
Lovely blonde Billie Van Horn is a gorgeous, take-no-prisoners flight instructor who has
been assigned to train a number of pilots in Bahania, including the
ultramasculine Prince Jefri. At first Jefri is miffed at being bested by the beautiful
super-pilot, but after he lays his eyes on her, he becomes hopelessly smitten.
The prince invites Billie to stay at his family's palace during the duration of the flight
training, an offer she eager accepts. With her dog Muffin and her brother Doyle, Billie settles
into the luxurious suite and enjoys her close proximity to Jefri.
But Billie is crestfallen when Jefri's future wife, the young and shy Tahira, arrives on the scene.
Before meeting Billie, Jefri asked his father to find a suitable wife...and is dismayed when
it seems to be too late to cancel his marriage plans. Billie is well aware that when royal honor
calls, her high-born lover will have to fly from her side forever...unless he defies his destiny
and chooses love.
