Royal heir Osman Al Kilanjar must choose a bride to claim his throne, but he's tired of the gold-diggers who flock around him and knows he'll recognize his true mate when he meets her. Practical line-producer Samantha Bechtel has her whole life mapped out like the shooting script of one of her documentaries--but it takes a detour when she breaks down in the desert and is rescued by the commanding and charismatic sheikh. Osman decides to put the local marriage festival she's filming to good use and claim his bride. Sam is shocked by Osman's bold seduction--and even more surprised when she finds herself falling under his spell.
