In the scorching deserts of Alkuthban and the unrelenting cold of Thalabed, "Our Dune of Stars" tells a gripping tale of love, survival, betrayal and high-stakes politics.

Princess Aisha's life takes an unexpected turn when she's bound to the enigmatic Abyad Prince, Hassan, in a marriage meant to halt the tides of war between their lands. But as ancient rivalries resurface and rebels plot against her, Aisha must navigate treacherous terrain to ensure her own survival.

Hostility and danger lurk at every corner as Aisha and Hassan grapple with a union neither chose. Rebels' shadows loom large, and a daring attack thrusts Aisha into a perilous situation. Meanwhile, unrest simmers as a new menace emerges: the power-hungry Kingdom of Mortar. Tragedy strikes, leaving Aisha bereaved and burdened with leadership as Mortar's forces advance. 

"Our Dune of Stars" weaves a mesmerizing tapestry of Aisha's journey from pawn to commander, entwining her fate with that of Hassan and the destiny of their realms. Their hearts, like the shifting sands, hold secrets and conflicts that mirror the battles waged on the battlefield. As loyalty is tested and alliances falter, Aisha's quest becomes one of self-discovery, resilience, and the pursuit of a harmonious world.

NOTE: This book is inspired by the Arabian / Arab culture.

Dear Reader, I challenge you to a duel! Yes, exactly! Prepare for a battle. The battle for your heart and soul. I'm about to whisk you away and immerse you in a world brimming with magic and secrets. But fear not, on this adventure through the wilderness, you'll be accompanied by Klelia and... that's a surprise :)) Your task is simple. You have to survive... Are you ready to take up the challenge? "I'm dead. I died back in that hut. I don't exist anymore. And now, after everything that's happened, you want to talk?" I raised my eyebrows in surprise. "Who am I to you?" He closed the distance in an instant. I had nowhere to escape; there was a wall behind me, and he stood before me. "Are you really asking who you are to me, Klelia? You are my sun and moon. The source of my suffering and pleasure. My oxygen. I breathe you every day. Every second of life without you is worthless. Without you, there is no me. That's what you are to me. My private universe. I want to immerse myself in you. To lose myself." "I'm dangerous. At any moment, I could..." Tears welled up in my eyes. "I'm not like you." "You're no more dangerous than me," he interrupted, kissing me hungrily, as if he were desperate for air. P.S. Grab your best sword and cape. Despite appearances, desert nights can be cold.
