Book-Three in the "Other Lands. Other Fates" collection brings us another three interracial and female-led fantasies of dark romance involving North American and European men who find their true natures away from the countries of their birth. Read on, as the spoiled daughter of a wealthy and ruthless Arab businessman, studying at Oxbridge, becomes infatuated with one of the professors tutoring her.
A handsome, married and faithless, professor who barely acknowledges her existence behind the concealment of her national and religious garb. And a man she is determined will have a quite different reaction to her when, with the help of her father, he is delivered to her in the family's middle-east home. A home that will now be his in ways beyond anything he ever imagined! The arrival of an intimidating new female neighbour across from a reclusive writer, coincides with the delivery of a posthumously sent manuscript from a now deceased father.
A manuscript that will test the son's credulity as well as appal him with its warning of a family curse in another land and the danger in which it places him. A curse, if real, in which he senses the huge and seductive Latina woman now living across from him will play a leading part. And then her even more intimidating daughter arrives! An English academic, devastated by his teacher-wife's betrayal of him with one of her own undergrads, secures a stint as a lecturer at an Indian university in an attempt to put distance between himself and the source of his emotional distress.
Vulnerability that is picked up on by the young and ambitious Indian housekeeper he employs to look after his home and take care of him... A young Indian housekeeper who, while no beauty, has the body of a Venus and has demons of her own. Demons in the form of fantasies about to change her employer's life! This volume contains: "Ms Shafiqah" by Gudrun Lindstrom; "An Enduring Bewitchment" from Rafael Menton; and Shruti Jalav's "A Very English Chattel". Believable female-led, interracial and occult, fantasy; written in the psychological style, for those readers with a preference for exercising the darker side of the imagination with the help of believable and character-driven plotlines.
