Par Linda Rae Sande. 2024
Capturada por piratas. Vendida a um sultão. Não era assim que Charlotte esperava passar suas férias. Charlotte, uma duquesa viúva…
recém-saída do luto, está a caminho para passar férias na Grécia quando piratas tomam seu navio e a escravizam. Quando eles tentam vendê-la a um sultão turco, ela tem certeza de que pode convencer o governante a deixá-la ir embora. Ela é uma mãe de família com dois filhos adultos -- e ele tem um harém e dezenove filhos. O que ele poderia querer com ela? Aparentemente, três noites. Há duas décadas, o sultão Ziyaeddin I governa seu império em declínio a partir de vários palácios em Constantinopla, mas o que fica à beira do Mar Egeu guarda suas lembranças mais preciosas -- e uma filha precoce, com uma instrução excessiva para a maioria dos homens. Determinado a introduzir reformas, Ziyaeddin é muito mais esclarecido do que os sultões que o antecederam. Culto e sozinho. E convencer os outros de sua visão para o império tem sido um desafio. Entediado com seu harém, ele fica intrigado com a inglesa que é jogada sem cerimônia aos seus pés, por piratas. Com suas habilidades como duquesa e o desejo de ter uma filha, será que ela será a companheira que sua filha precisa -- e a resposta para sua solidão?A entrega especial de são Valentim
