Some men are born to love. Some are born to be loved. Jeremiah Mande was never sure which one he was - until she looked at him.

Jeremiah came to the glittering, forbidden city of Ummul Diyan with nothing but a screenplay no one wanted and a past he was still trying to outrun. He wasn't looking for anything more than a paycheck and a second chance. Then he caught Ameera Al-Fayeed's eyes across a cosmetics counter, and every plan he'd made for his life quietly stopped mattering.

Ameera is everything Jeremiah isn't supposed to want: heiress to one of the city's most powerful families, promised since childhood to another man, and bound by expectations that have never once asked what she wants. She knows exactly what falling for a stranger like Jeremiah will cost her. She falls anyway.

What begins as a stolen glance becomes a courtship neither of them can walk away from - poetry slipped into office lobbies, a promise kept on an empty beach, a first love that neither of them was raised to believe they were allowed to have. But desire has a way of outrunning consequence, and forgiveness has a way of running out exactly when you need it most. As lies unravel and families close ranks, Jeremiah and Ameera are pulled toward a fate that was written long before they ever met - one that neither love, nor money, nor desperation can hold back.

The Arabian Girl is a sweeping, aphoristic tragedy in the tradition of star-crossed love stories that refuse happy endings - a story about what it costs to love someone you were never supposed to have, and what's left when two worlds refuse to bend.

A love story that should never have been told.
