A dead husband. An unconsummated
marriage. She needs an heir. Any man will do.
1061 AD. A sprawling empire rich in
gold, resources, and military might dominates West Africa. It’s The Kingdom of
Ghana, and it’s at the height of its power.
Twenty-year old Nabeela is
grappling with her own power struggle. In order to save her younger sister from
their step-brother’s clutches, Nabeela agrees to marry a repulsive African
prince and bear him an heir. However, her plans are waylaid when tragedy
strikes on her wedding night—her new husband dies—without consummating their
marriage.
She must find a replacement to
impregnate her immediately. Any man will do—including a drunken soldier her
servants find naked taking a bath in a neighboring village. Nabeela holds him
captive and coerces him into having sex with her—stealing the one thing he can
never get back—his seed.
What she doesn’t know is the
soldier is Rafan, Commander of a warring tribe’s royal army, and one of her
family’s arch enemies. Eager for revenge, Rafan tracks her down once he’s
released. But when these two reunite, they realize their lust for each other is
far greater than their disdain.
Enamored by Nabeela’s beauty and
bravery, Rafan makes her an offer of marriage, and the promise to help her
become queen. He convinces her that they are stronger allies than enemies. Even
though they share a commitment to unite, there are others who are determined to
destroy them and their plans, including the one person Nabeela would have never
suspected. In the end, she’s is forced to choose between her passion and her
ambition.
