Publisher's Synopsis
When her entire family is murdered, a young palestinian girl is forced to pretend to be a man simply to survive. She buries her name, her identity, her past...but has she buried it so far it can't be found, even by herself?
The girl now-known as Dusty is soon caught up in a whirlwind of violence and drama as the Crusades rage around her, and her turmoil rages within.
And then her path crosses with the handsome and persistent Will Scarlett, a man determined to unlock every hidden secret she's buried deep. Yet how can she allow him to know who she truly is when she won't even acknowledge her past herself?
