Impressed by his spirited captive, Suleiman seeks her out at every opportunity. To Eleanor's surprise, he's open to Western ways. The glimpses of the sensitive man behind the awesome public image tease and tantalize her—and his seduction is hard to resist. But can Eleanor ever hope to become his one true love?
