"American beauty Crystal Rawlins is desperate for a job and will do anything to become the nanny to Sheik Fariq Hassan's children. She is ecstatic when she secures the dream job and finds herself working in the luxurious palace in exotic El Zafir. And the little white lie she tells about her true physical appearance seems like a very small detail...but is it?

Fariq has been burned by a beautiful woman before and he does not trust them. Fortunately, the nanny he hires is far from stunning. She's positively mousy. But that doesn't prevent him from being captivated by her fiery spirit...and her passionate kisses. And she obviously shares his attraction, so why does she keep pulling away from him? And what secrets was she hiding beneath that bulky clothing and behind those glasses?"

I hope Santa doesn't bring me this book for Christmas. Or anything from the "Desert Brides" Collection, for that matter.
Let's see what an actual reader has to say....

"Sheik(h) Fariq Ibn What's-His-Name is a single father who hires Crystal What's-Her-Name as a nanny for his two small children. Since his ex-wife once done him wrong, Fariq has agreed with his father's plan to hire a very plain woman for the job. But Crystal, who desperately needs the job to help her ailing mother, is a home-town beauty queen. So she dons a disguise and gets the job. But Fariq falls for her inner beauty, even though he has the expected arrogant-male temper tantrum when he figures out her scheme . . .boring! Not a single noteworthy surprise here.
Except that both of Fariq's brothers are more interesting than he is.
