Luckily she's saved in the nick of time by the man she least expected to ever see again—Rashid, a sheikh from the neighboring country of Azmahar! All her life, she's loved him, but he never returned her feelings...until now. It doesn't take long for the two of them to get close, or for Rashid to ask for her hand in marriage. Laylah wants to simply accept his proposal, but deep down she finds herself hesitating. Little does she know what the handsome sheikh has in store for her!
