About the book

Enslaved by their desires

Kadar Soheil Amirmoez couldn't keep his eyes off the blond-haired beauty strolling through Istanbul's ancient marketplace. So when he sees her in trouble, Kadar is only too willing to act...

Amber Jones has never met such an intensely commanding man as Kadar. Her reactions to him both scare and excite her—maybe that's because he is at first her hero, then her captor!

This wasn't the journey of exploration Amber came to Istanbul for, but as the exotic atmosphere seduces her, she soon becomes his willing captive and he a very attentive keeper!
