Book Reviews of Harem Girl: A Harem Girl?s Journal

Book Review: A fascinating sexy story. Both warm and disturbing.
Summary: 5 Stars

Mariyah the main character starts her adventure as a fourteen years old girl living in Tunisia and ends it in Arabia when she is forty. In the intervening years she is married, enters the harem of an Arab sheik as his slave Sapphira, falls in love and marries again. Therein lies a small but integral part of the plot-only she knows that she is already married to another man-until her deceit is discovered. How and why, as a married woman, she enters the harem of a sheik as a slave is an intriguing and cleverly woven story in itself, and what follows afterwards is both warm and harrowing. Expect to shed a tear or two.

I bought this book as a present for my wife. It was well received-as were the thanks the book inspired!

From the back cover:
HAREM GIRL is, at its heart, an engaging and erotic love story. Sapphira, beautiful and assured, tells in unblushing and sensuous detail of her journey through life, briefly as an innocent young girl in Tunisia, then as one of eleven slave girls in an Arabian sheikh's harem, where her life changes utterly. Shamelessly, she reveals the sheik's secrets of exotic lovemaking.

There is much to learn before she is ready to be "called" to her Master. Eunuchs train and instruct her in every facet of the art of pleasing a man.
..."on one hand, I looked forward to knowing these things, yet on the other, I was aghast at the way I had to show myself and the distasteful things I might have to do. It thoroughly unnerved me to realize that I must know a man in these ways-a man I scarcely knew"...

Her story of life in the harem is compelling and moving, revealing a level of lustful debauchery, submission, and decadence unimaginable today, but completely believable in the era in which it is set. And we feel...we imagine...we could be her, sharing her joy and tears, as intriguing, romantic, and sometimes-wretched events unfold.

But all is not as it first appears. She uncovers chinks in the sheik's cold and indifferent exterior. Hearts are vulnerable-even the strongest succumb-and gently they enter into the warm world of love between a man and a woman...and she steps across a forbidden boundary she had not imagined doing at the start.

Unknown to others, Sapphira harbors a dark and troubling past. Years later, when her unlawful secret is uncovered, her calmed life collapses, leaving her exposed to swift and cruel justice. With heartrending bravery, she climbs from the depths of deplorable anguish and gives us a story guaranteed to excite the senses and arouse emotions-in a pleasing way.

If you enjoy sheik/harem slave girl stories you will not be disappointed! However, note the sensible warning on the back cover:-"A book recommended for the mature and broad minded-not for teenage daughters." It is quite erotically explicit in parts, but tastefully written, not pornographic.
