Enslaved by the Desert Trader by Greta Gilbert

3.0

3 stars. I think this book started off really strong but as it went on, it got less interesting and more convoluted. The characters of Tahar and Kiya were just alright, not my favorites. Kiya was a bit better than Tahar but she was still so underdeveloped and one dimensional, same as him. The romance didn’t do anything for me and I don’t think the chemistry was that strong. However, where this book gets three stars from is in the writing and the setting. It’s set in Egypt and the author does a fantastic job painting a picture. I had no problem imagining everything and the way she described things was so lush and beautiful. I will definitely read more of her work because of how strong her writing is but this book just wasn’t it for me.
