Magic Carpets
Zelda didn't trust Aram Kalinsky one inch' his piratical eye-patch and the mysterious crates in his car suggested dealings far more sinister than the buying and selling of rugs. However, stranded in the Syrian desert, she needed his help, so she'd just have to use the wits that travelling alone in the Middle East had given her - and not give in to the intense physical attraction that she felt for him. Because, if Aram was as good as his word, she stood to lose even more than her rare and valuable carpet!

This is your typical Harlequin: girl meets boy, girl and boy fall in love, girl finds out boy's little secret and gets P.O.ed, girl and boy reconcile and he proposes—all in the space of a few weeks, I'll add.
This time, the connecting theme is a carpet business, with both having one of their own. They meet while traveling the Middle East to purchase carpets for their business. Of course, what draws them together is the usual set of calamities; what drives them apart is when she discovers that he is also in the carpet-selling business—a fact you easily ascertain early in the book, so no spoiler here unless you just can't guess that. After all, it's a typical Harlequin.
The book is entertaining enough, and even has some tame sex to spark interest. But as usual, the plot is predictable. It's what I call "fluff reading": entertaining like a soap opera and without any tough plot line to deal with.
