Inside a beer house in the ancient city of Thinis
Iput knows exactly what to do when a thief breaks into her uncle's tavern in the middle of the night; threaten him at knifepoint and force him to run away with her, of course. It's the will of the gods, after all, as prophesied in her dreams. It isn't until the handsome thief steals all her worldly goods and abandons her that she begins to suspect the gods hadn't planned in her favour.
When Nasha attempts to burgle his former home, he absconds with much more than planned - a fortune's worth of precious stones and a mad concubine. As they make their escape, however, Nasha begins to suspect that the woman might just be the one who saves him instead of the other way around.
Sixteen years later
Nasha seeks out the woman he left behind. But can he win her back, or does too much time and heartbreak stand between them? And can she trust his intentions, or is this just another deception?
Follow Iput and Nasha as they flee their old lives in search of fortune and redemption along the River Nile.

I love the Egyptian Ancient Romances series Danielle writes. Her writing style is perfect for historical fiction and I love her description and detail. Every scene is so clear to her and it comes through in her writing, so you can picture, smell and taste the things she describes as well. I love the small backstories to each character in every book, and I loooove the steamy scenes and hot romances. The only thing is I found my favourite story was the lady of the caravan one when she had to travel through the desert and it was bc her love interest was kind of a bad boy and wasn’t easy to catch from the get-go. I find each male love interest in each book is too nice or good-intentioned from the start and I just can’t help but wish they were a bit more complex if anything. Even Nasha isn’t really a bad boy, more like troubled and misunderstood. Danielle does a really good job with dialogue but one thing that I can’t help but notice is some of the phrases (ie. Bollocks!) some of the characters use kinda ruins the magic for me because I know they definitely didn’t say that in Ancient Egypt and it makes me think of them having English accents which annoys me lol, but overall, they’re stories of love and adventure. They’re one of my top on the list when it comes to Ancient Egyptian romance. You won’t be disappointed
