Call of the Trumpet

PRINCESS OF THE DESERT

Cecile Villier was a daughter of France but a child of the desert. Born to a rich Frenchman and a Bedouin beauty, the lovely woman found no comfort in the immense wealth of Parisian society. Intent on finding a home she could call her own, she returned to her mother's birthplace: the Sahara. There she found freedom in a new way of life--and the most captivating man she'd ever seen.

Matthew Blackmoore had become one with the desert and its people. To Cecile, the dashing young Englishman embodied this strange place: He blazed with passion, and in the horseman's heated embrace she knew she risked destruction. But the oasis of his kiss proved a haven from the dangers of the fierce wilderness, and the resourceful beauty was determined to make both the man--and the land--her own.
