Wolf

His bite is as fierce as his reputation

Sheikh Sharif Al-Hadid isn't known for his gentleness. Like the territorial and savage wolf he was named after, he rules his province without mercy. He can't be any other way. His enemies would cut him down quicker than a lightning bolt if they suspected he had a soft spot. It's why he pretends not to care about his new fianc嶪, Elmira. If he showed her even a speck of love and tenderness his enemies wouldn't stop at hurting her to hurt him.
But how long can he keep up the pretense and continue to unintentionally offend the woman he secretly loves?
Though Elmira Bakir is deeply in love with her future husband, she's as deeply wounded by him. He is as cold and dismissive of her as any man could possibly be. A stranger would show her more warmth and compassion. That she senses beneath his icy fa蓷de is a burning passion waiting to be unleashed is her only hope, and she'll break every rule in her culture to seduce him and know for sure if they have a future together.
Because there is no way she'll tolerate the same loveless marriage her parents had. She deserves so much more than that. But can she fight for a man who mightn't deem her worthy to fight for in return?
