The first book in the sexy new Grayson Brothers series by Christina Phillips! Every good girl loves a very bad boy... Scarlett Ashford needs a date for her father's wedding. Only she doesn't just need a guy in a suit-she needs a bodyguard. The only problem is that Jackson Grayson is big and gorgeous and way too sexy. So much so that Scarlett's tempted to let this hot bad boy ruin her oh-so-good reputation... Jackson doesn't do relationships and he certainly doesn't sleep with clients. Yet he can't fight their inconvenient attraction, or how badly he wants Scarlett's warm and wicked curves against his body. He wants her. Now. Even if it's just for one night, and even if walking away the next morning isn't as easy as he thought. Besides, one hot and incredibly intense night between a bad boy and a pampered princess could never turn into something real...could it?

The story follows Scots warrior Connor, who is fiercely determined to protect Aila from the looming threat of Vikings. In his quest to save her, he faces a moral dilemma that forces him to defy his king, betray his homeland, and sacrifice his own honor. The narrative explores themes of loyalty, love, and the heavy cost of choices made in the name of protection.

This is an in-depth, original survey of religion in the modern Arabic novel. Tracing the relationship from the genesis of the form in the early twentieth century to present, Phillips provides a thematic exploration of the push and pull between religion and secularism as it played out on the pages of the Egyptian novel.
