Desert Doorway

Jenny Armitage becomes the governess of Comte de Alais’ children in beautiful Marrakesh, Morocco. She finds herself in the middle of a peculiar love triangle and resisting the attentions of the charming, yet at times questionable, Max Daintry. Her attractiveness also does not go unnoticed by the Comtesse, who clearly wants Jenny out of the picture. Can she live out her passions in such strange circumstances, amidst the obvious charms of the man pursuing her in romantic Morocco? The 20th-century love story was written by Pamela Kent, one of Ida Pollock’s pseudonyms.

A must-read for fans of literary romance and surprising twists of fate.

Pamela Kent is a pseudonym of Ida Pollock (1908 – 2013), a highly successful British writer of over 125 romance novels translated into numerous languages and published across the world. Ida Pollock has sold millions of copies over her 90-year career.

Pollock began writing when she was 10 years old. Ida has travelled widely, living in several different countries. She continues to be popular amongst both her devoted fan base and new readers alike. Pollock has been referred to as the "world's oldest novelist" who was still active at 105 and continued writing until her death.

On the occasion of her 105th birthday, Pollock was appointed honorary vice-president of the Romantic Novelists' Association, having been one of its founding members.

Ida Pollock wrote in a wide variety of pseudonyms: Joan M. Allen, Susan Barrie, Pamela Kent, Averil Ives, Anita Charles, Barbara Rowan, Jane Beaufort, Rose Burghley, Mary Whistler and Marguerite Bell.
