For six years, she raised their son alone, with no one but herself to lean on,
Now her baby's daddy is back, a real live Prince-or Sheikh-Charming, promising to make her worries go away.
She's been fooled once before,
She won't get fooled again.
They met in the library, a shy wallflower with big dreams and an exchange student with royal secrets. Love blossomed over the course of one college spring, then he left without a word, and took her heart with him.
Six years on, and Emelia is the sole parent to their adorable son. When Tariq reappears in her life, she's stunned when he reveals himself to be a sheikh, the leader of a small country, and a father who wants to make up for lost time. They each wonder if too much time has passed, if the damage can ever be repaired, but neither can stop themself from hoping.
But ruling a country doesn't offer much time for building a relationship with your long-lost family. Emelia finds her heart opening up to Tariq even as she begs it not to, even as she worries that he might not be able to fulfil his promises, and that he might still be keeping secrets from her after all this time.
Can she ever trust the man who walked out of her life without a goodbye?
Can Tariq hold on to the family he's only just discovered, or will the role he was born into cause him to lose them all over again?
