Every day in court, divorce attorney Mariah Kennedy pitted herself against rich, ruthless men…and usually won. Her new neighbor, Zayad Al Nayhal, with his arrogance and air of command, was exactly the type she'd learned not to trust. But his dark good looks and irresistible charm soon chipped away at her best defenses. The Sultan of Emand was in California to deal with a family crisis. He was not here to indulge his attraction to the headstrong—and sensual—Mariah. Yet neither could resist temptation for long. Too soon, their affair demanded a commitment Zayad had never before been able to give…but letting Mariah go was not an option.

The subject of this vast, astonishing and brilliantly readable work of history is the bizarre story of the Ottoman Empire, seen through the lives and actions of its sultans, with their absolute power and terrifying cruelty, their love of pomp and magnificence and their overwhelming venality and corruption. The author describes the men, the events, the daily life, the strange customs of Turkey's court, from her emergence as a great power in the sixteenth century to the death of Kemal Ataturk, who overthrew the Sultanate to establish a new and more modern form of tyranny. This book is a unique and fascinating record of four centuries of glory, debauchery, splendor and cruelty. --from inside jacket flap.

This is the story of the House of Osman, the imperial dynasty that ruled the Ottoman Empire for more than seven centuries, an empire that once stretched from central Europe to North Africa and from Persia to the Adriatic. The capital of this empire was Istanbul, ancient Byzantium, a city that stands astride Europe and Asia on the Bosphorus. And it was in the great palace of Topkapi Sarayi that the sultans of this empire ruled. Inside the Seraglio - a classic of Ottoman history - takes us behind the gilded doors of the Topkapi and into the heart of the palace: the harem, where the sultan would surround himself with his wives, concubines, eunuchs, pages, dwarfs and mutes and where all the tempestuous events of empire were so often played out. This is the history of a remarkable palace in all its colour and opulence and the story of its influence on a great empire.

Spies, Scandals, and Sultans is the first English translation of a fascinating and acidly critical portrait of the Ottoman capital of Istanbul during the days of the Sultan Abd al-Hamid. This is the first time that the text, written by an Egyptian journalist and politician, has been available since 1896. Originally published as a series of newspaper articles in the mid-1890s, and then as a book entitled Ma Hunalik, the text was ordered to be banned and burned by the Sultan's representatives in Cairo. The ban was carried out, but a few copies survived, one of which has been used for this translation. The text of the Arabic original is prefaced with an extensive introduction in which the author's life is discussed and the highly controversial contents of the book are contextualized and evaluated for their accuracy against other contemporary accounts of life in the Ottoman capital. Spies, Scandals, and Sultans presents a highly critical view of the Ottoman government in Istanbul during the 1890s, with reference to earlier eras in Ottoman history. It is an Egyptian perspective of the Ottoman administration in one of its most problematic periods and is highly critical of every aspect of life in the capital city—not least, the elaborate spy system. Spies, Scandals, and Sultans takes on the theme of modernization and the role of more traditional values, including Islamic ones, in the process of setting the goals for a modern Middle Eastern state—a process that was to come to fruition after World War One in the creation of the modern state of Turkey. This first English translation should arouse intense interest among historians of the Ottoman Empire and Egypt, as well as those who study modernization in the Middle East and the status of Islam within both traditional and modernizing societies in the region. Spies, Scandals, and Sultans has a great deal to say about the processes of decline and the causes for it, and the ever increasing role of European nations in the establishment o

Sheikh Ashraf possessed the fortitude of a hundred sultans-still, he was mightily tempted by the seductive allure of the mysterious and ravishing Dana Morningstar. Never had a woman unravelled his restraint like the sumptuous television celebrity. But for Ashraf, romance was unfathomable-his objective was to seize his family's stolen throne. In this power struggle, was Dana a courier of danger, an assassin's bait? Ashraf's instincts said she was an ally.... Still, to control the vixen, he would keep her close as a lover. Perhaps a night of passion would conquer all doubt!

Suleyman the Magnificent, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, has a harem of three hundred beautiful concubines. His soul and eyes desire only one; the one who makes him a poet. Only one makes him long for her every touch. What is her aphrodisiac? Roxelana, known as Hurrem-The Cheerful One in the harem has a brilliant mind within her irresistible body. She holds a 75 year old secret that could sow seeds of destruction in the Ottoman Sultanate; a secret granted her by none other than the Sultan's own mother. What is this secret curse? What power does Roxelana wield over Suleyman that he would break tradition and make her queen? Is it simply love or something more that tempts the Sultan? Why does she learn the ancient art of Kama Sutra from an Indian princess in the harem and then send Suleyman to war? And why would the Sultan's mother entrust the great secret to a mere harem girl? Rich with eroticism of the harem and the twisting, intrigues of the empire ruled from Topkapi palace, Harem Secrets creates embroidery of compelling plots since the fall of Constantinople. At the height of power, two figures change world history in Europe and Asia; history that was later influenced through a legendary harem dancer, Anarkali of Ottoman origins. Her mystery continues into the Palaces of Mogul emperors.
