| Camille “Cami” Ellison had no what she was
in for the day that she met Sheikh Rayhan “Ray” ibn-Malik across the stream that
separated their ranches. After a few dates with Ray, she
can’t imagine not having him in her life and falls for Ray hard and fast despite the
10 year difference in their ages. She is
surprised that a Sheikh from a faraway country like Adnan would come to care for her. Ray is everything that she could ever want in a
man and he makes her feel as no other man ever has but she doesn’t want to give up
her home in Texas to become a Princess in another country.
Cami also suspects secrets in Ray’s past that he doesn’t share with her,
but she is intrigued and determined to have it all: her home and her desert prince.
In the beginning, Ray knows Cami is just the instrument for his
revenge on her father. Ten years ago
Cami’s father swindled him out of a lot of money and he plans to use Cami to get his
pride and honor back and to obtain the mineral rights on the Ellison land that should have
been his. But Ray is surprised when his plans
for revenge become second fiddle to his relationship with Cami. Ray is drawn to Cami’s sweet innocence and
love for life and he begins to want her more than extracting his revenge. But can Cami’s love conquer his need for
revenge?
When Cami learns the truth it is already to late....for both of
them.
I will never be able to say enough about this fast
paced and wonderfully romantic story!! Sue
Swift brings us a tantalizing story of trust, betrayals and sweet innocence. Cami and Ray are wonderful characters who will
both go to great ends for those they love. Ms.
Swift brings the reader into her stories and has them rooting for the characters to have a
happily ever after ending. The instant
chemistry between Ray and Cami is electric and scorching hot. Cami’s innocence is beautifully and
masterfully written. Ray is an dynamite
hero. A gorgeous, worldly, erotic specimen of
a man that the reader will instantly think he is too much for young, sweet Cami to handle
but this reader soon realized that it is Ray that might have a tough time dealing with
Cami and I was delighted at the sometimes
humorous aspects to their relationship.
Ray and Cami are compelling, dynamic and
delightful characters who bring out the very best in each other. I read this book in one sitting and was hooked
before the prologue was even over, my pulse raced and my heart literally stopped over the
magnetic Ray and I was intrigued by how he would seek his revenge. This book is the first by Ms. Swift that I have
read and I will be looking for more releases from her in the future. But IN THE SHEIKH’S ARMS will not be
forgotten any time soon.
