An oasis of escape
In a life of duty…Star Soames has one week in Duratra to track down her family’s long-lost diamonds. Facing a fruitless quest, she allows herself an encounter with a gorgeous stranger in the royal palace. But “Kal” turns out to be Sheikh Khalif Al Azhar!
Star awakens a curiosity Khalif hasn’t felt since a tragic accident made him heir to the throne. But surrendering to their attraction is risky when duty decrees he always choose country over their chemistry…
Pippa Roscoe delights in this forbidden romance! With the second book in her Diamond Inheritance series Roscoe continues the journey of three siblings searching for lost family fortune in order to care for their ill mother. The chemistry between Star and Kal was easy to connect with and their journey towards happily ever after was a pleasure.
Star is sweet and pure and doesn’t take her journey lightly, but the attraction she feels for this worldly man tempts her like no other.
Sheikh Khalif is healing from family tragedy and the newfound pressure he has to endure to rule his kingdom and Star is a like a breath of fresh air to him.
I highly recommend this book and the entire series to a reader who enjoys a hint of royalty mixed in with emotional turmoil and a sweet romance.
