Jameela is sold at an auction to Dagan and taken to begin her education is sexual pleasure. Dagan is to be her teacher, but she can't understand why he remains at the will of others. Her feelings for Dagan soon start to grow deeper, but Dagan is used to keeping his emotions at a distance. Can she get him to see that maybe there is more between them than just student and teacher?

Dagan knew from the moment he saw Jameela that she was special and he couldn't just let her be sold. He takes her and teaches her the way of passion and pleasure, however he is preparing her for the Master. When the time comes he will have to let her go and keep his emotions under control. Can he stand by and watch while another takes Jameela to the heights of passion, or will he claim her as his own?

Desire's Sirocco is a novel with an intense plot and sad situations. There is a mystery that is revealed concerning Dagan, but I won't give that away. Jameela is caught between following her heart and doing what she's been taught, she doesn't have much say in the situation and it's hard on her emotionally. This book is a roller coaster of ups and downs and will keep you reading just to see what happens next. There is one point though where Jameela makes it clear she doesn't mind being shared and I wanted to scream how can you say that and say you are in love at the same time, however this does fit into the story and you later see why. This is a very interesting read and I think readers will enjoy the plot and characters.
