What an intriguing book...

Wow! "Arabian Winds" is a book that will totally blow you away! Nurse Allison Wescott is on holiday with the archaeology club near Aleppo in the summer of 1914. Little did she know that she would get involved in something so dangerous that it had caused two lives and that it may cost her her own life. To her horror, she finds herself interrogated by an handsome officer who stirs the fire of romance. Then the plot gets even more complicated: she finds that she is the only one who is holding the key to locating the information that the two other agents had thought worth dying for. And who is the murderer and the German enemy agent? Great story with an very well-developed, excitable,and complicated plot that is deftly woven into a time when the world will soon be at war. This will keep you on the edge of your seat and won't let you put it down. Follow the adventures of Allison Wescott in her journey with the Lord and as she follows her own heart in her romance with the mysterious British intelligence officer, Bret Holden. Linda Chaikin deserves an award for this series: LIONS OF THE DESERT. An outstanding, wonderful job!

...speechless...

WOW! This book was an automatic topper of my favorite books list. It has everything! Sigh-worthy romance, fast-paced adventure, spine-tingling suspense...I absolutely loved it. The plot is this: Allison Westcott, an army nurse in pre-WWI Middle East, gets caught up in a British espionage ring. Murder and mystery seem to follow her everywhere as she searches for answers and vital information that must not get into the hands of the enemy. But the question is...who IS the enemy? Allison and the handsome Colonel Bret Holden can trust no one as they race to get the information before someone else does...and Allison even becomes the bait to lure the murderer in the heartstopping climax! Have I convinced you? What are you waiting for? Buy it! BUY IT! You'll love it I promise!
