Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Sheik: A Novel
The two men left standing by the Open French window that led into the hotel ballroom looked at each other and smiled.
Some peroration, said one with a marked American accent. That's the way scandal's made, I guess.
Scandal be hanged! There's never been a breath of scandal attached to Diana Mayo's name. I've known the child since she was a baby. Rum little cuss she was, too. Confound that old woman! She would wreck the reputa: tion of the Archangel Gabriel if he came down to earth, let alone that of a mere human girl.
