He was dark, dangerous, and secretive...Lieutenant Ali Raza oversees a nominal company of soldiers—the Indian infantry. They are battling for control of the textile trade over the British government. To the Crown, it's an act of rebellion; to Ali it's an act of independence. After a brief victory, Ali is brutally attacked and left to die in the harsh desert. Thought to have deserted his post, Ali is discharged from the army and humiliated. Determined to find his assailant and clear his name, Ali finds his saving grace in the arms of the beautiful seamstress, Charmaine Radcliff, after a daring escape. The pair is thrust into a whirlwind romance, and a fight for both of their lives. She was beautiful, irresistible, and downright distracting... Charmaine Radcliff is a beautiful, independent, and headstrong woman who never dreamed that she would be in the arms of a handsome Indian Army officer with a dangerous secret. When she is kidnapped for uncovering a drug ring, Ali comes to her rescue. In exchange for saving her life, she aids him in finding his assailant while trying to uncover his secret. However, she never expected love would be part of the deal.
