Bonnie Vanak. The Cobra & the Concubine. New York: Dorchester Publishing Co. Inc., 2005.
Badra seeks refuge with the Khamsin warriors in the Sahara, but she knows that there is
no true escape from the sheikh who has stolen her childhood. She can't forget what
happened to her as a young girl any more than she can accept the feelings that the man
assigned to protect her, Khepri, arouses in her.
Kenneth Tristan, heir to the duke of Caldwell, has ridden with the Khamsin since the slaughter
of his English family. Known as Khepri, the Cobra, he grew up with his Arab brothers. While
protecting her, he
falls in love with the sweet and gentle Badra, but knows that he is forbidden
to touch her. She is too fragile, too broken from her past
life, and he is unsure if he can ever make her whole again.
