Excerpt
Chapter 1 - Khan el-Khalili
Sienna Robertson had felt royally screwed from the first day she landed in Cairo. Pity it hadn’t been in the physical sense, since she had a penchant for Egyptian men. Cairo was indeed a fascinating place, though not what she’d romanticized. Even so, she'd determined she could live with the rip-off vendors and taxi drivers, the lung deflating smog—equivalent to smoking three packs of cigarettes a day—and dressing like a nun for twenty-eight days, in exchange for the privilege of viewing the city’s decaying splendors.
Her fascination with the last standing wonder of the ancient world and Khufu, the enigmatic pharaoh responsible for its existence, went back as far as she could remember. Sienna had dreamed she was Khufu’s third wife, Henutsen. These visions had become predominantly erotic when she matured into a woman. No lover had ever shagged her so thoroughly or so utterly enticed her to the point of obsession. She longed to find such a passionate pairing in reality; unfortunately, all her real life partners lacked in every way conceivable.
Her parents were very open and had never judged her or insisted she see a shrink. They lovingly accepted her just as she was; in turn, she loved them more dearly. They even encouraged her obsession with all things Egyptian, since her heritage receded far back on her mother’s side. Her friends, on the other hand, found her fascination amusing and even blamed her eccentricities for her lack of male company, adding she was far too particular for her own good.
If a potential partner couldn’t accept her for who she was, then he wasn’t worth knowing. She did not expect her dream man to come to life—far from it; she simply wanted equality and partnership, and this included respect. What she needed to discover was some fine male company, and then everything would fall into place for her romantically. Perhaps then she could give up her flights of fancy.
Monica Martin knows how to capture her readers from the first sentence.
