The desert stars align for passion and romance…

Years ago, Sheikh Hadi Toma allowed himself one night of freedom, one night to be a normal young man. Little did Hadi know, his one night of passion resulted in a son—a son who has been adopted by his daughter’s quirky, pink-haired teacher, Willow.

It isn’t long before Hadi realizes Willow might solve a major problem. He’s duty-bound to fulfill an ancient prophecy, and must marry during an upcoming astronomical event. Who better to marry than his son’s adoptive mother? Now he just needs to convince Willow. But is he marrying her for love? Or just to satisfy his superstitious family’s wishes…

Willow may not be her son’s biological mother, but she’s fiercely protective of her little boy. Can Hadi, a gruff, taciturn man, learn to be a patient, caring father? Sure, he’s the sexiest man she’s ever met, but that’s not the point. Still, it’s hard to keep her priorities straight when she gazes into the Sheikh’s smoldering eyes…

My Review  4 STARS

**My thanks to the author for providing me with a free copy for an honest review**

It has been a while since I have read anything by this author and I have not been disappointed that this author is still really good at weaving her story and creating some drama.

Willow has been raising her nephew after the death of her sister and only after her death did she find out what the father of her nephew looked like.  She has been trying to find him ever since.

Sheik Hadi is a single parent since the death of his wife, who he got on with as it was an arranged marriage.  He goes to visit his daughters teacher when he is hit by the bombshell that has daughters best friend is also his son.

Things move quickly and his family embrace the new member of their family and his aunt.  Although the Sheikh is worldly, Willow is the one that ends up teaching him far more about raising a family than he thought and how to love and make a child prosper when there is a lot at stake.

I really enjoyed this story and will read more from this author in the future.
