One Desert Night

Gina's job has brought her all the way to the desert kingdom of Kabuyadir, a place where, once upon a time, she spent a magical night with a strapping man by the name of Zahir. While they promised to see each other again one day, Gina was unable to believe in her long-distance sweetheart's vows of love, so she broke things off. Now she's returned to appraise the Heart of Courage, a jewel passed down through the Kabuyadir royal family along with the prophecy that all members of the royal family will forever live only for love. And who should arrive to welcome Gina to the palace but Zahir himself! Never in her wildest dreams would Gina have imagined that Zahir was a king! Has he called her here to get revenge for dumping him all those years ago?
