Purple Heart, Veiled Heart

In the war torn lands of Afghanistan each new day brings more death. It's all Kharisse has ever known. When she finds an injured American pilot hiding in her home her world is turned inside out. Both their lives are forfeit if the Taliban find him. Necessity forces them to an uneasy alliance to escape to Pakistan. Fleeing through Taliban controlled hills with death nipping at their heels becomes the least of her worries.
It's the realization of her undeniable attraction which scares her most. The American is not simply exotic and handsome; he is noble, kind and chivalrous. For years David had endured women wanting to worm their way into his family's wealth. They were nothing like the beautiful, courageous Persian he now had to trust with his life. Destiny brought them together and his heart was beginning to understand why.
