Johanna Lindsey. Captive Bride. New York: Avon Books, 1977.
From the moment Philip Caxton sets his eyes upon lovely Englishwoman Christine Wakefield, he knows
that he must have her. Born half-Arab and known among his people as Sheik Abu, he plots
to have her kidnapped and brought to his remote camp in the desert.
Christina is angry and frightened when she suddenly becomes the helpless captive of this strikingly handsome
stranger...but is soon weakened by her heart's blazing desire to explore
her virile captor's most sensuous cravings. Her idyllic time with Abu is
interrupted when she is kidnapped again, this time by another tribe. This act was
done in order to lure the sheik to
their camp so that an act of revenge for a past misdeed may be carried out. Abu rushes to
Christina's rescue and, after escaping a slow death, brings his beloved back to the safety of
his camp. But their happiness is shortlived when Christina is falsely told that Abu no
longer desires her and wishes her to leave. With a broken heart, she
leaves the desert to return to her past life in England.
But nothing will ever be the same, as she still loves Abu and fears she may never see
him again. Or will she?
Read more about the romantic romp between Christina and
Sheik Abu!
