Need Help Finding a book....

There's a historical book written in the 80's I think that I used to love and I don't remember the name of the author or the title, but the plot line kind of went like this...An English lady somehow gets taken into a harem (No this isn't the Sky O'Malley series or any by Beatrice Small), and she's rescued by a mysterious guy with an Arabic sounding name, and he seduces her, yada yada, but it turns out to be an English Earl who was actually an ambassador. Actually, she might have been in India now that I think about it. And she might have been the daughter of a diplomat who's father died while they were in India and this guy rescues her (the Earl) and he takes her back to England, and they get married. I think someone wants her dead because they thought she died in India because they stand to inherit her fortune. But this Earl she married is cunning and he saves her. And I clearly remember at the end of the book she gives birth to twins, a girl and a boy. The little girl she names Maryam. I think the boy twin was named Peter or it could have been the Earl's name that was Peter. I do remember that name being mention in the book. I think it was a dark cover, maybe black or dark blue, but I'm pretty sure it was black. I really would like to find this book and put in my keeper stack because I really liked it.

Isn't it sad that I remember little details like that, but can't think of the name of the book. If anyone can tell me what that story is or who that author is, I'd really really appreciate it.

I am really digging this song

And the lead singer is kind of cute

Isn't this cover delish?

I absolutely love this cover. It's by far one of my favorites. The artist does some amazing work and I'm squealing with delight that this one is mine.

The Zoo-Now Available at Changeling Press

The Cyrellians appear friendly, offering hope to a battered and devastated Earth. But three women soon make startling discoveries that could very well change the fate of their home world yet again.
With the help of Cyrellian technology, Bella may soon hear for the first time. When she goes to their lab for tests, she finds herself sold off -- as a pet in an alien zoo! Although she's expected to mate with a “creature” of her kind, she can't fight her attraction to Dar, the zookeeper assigned to oversee her training.

Dar has a knack for dealing with the most unruly of the zoo’s pets. Still, he’s surprised at how like his people these new breeders are. Disturbingly he finds himself falling for the Earth being, even though he knows it's wrong to mate with the pets. But when Bella tells him of the Cyrellians’ underhanded tactics, he risks his life on a daring escape. Will they find their way back to Earth in time to warn others of the Cyrellians’ devious plans?

I love this song!

Have you ever heard a song that inspires you? Everytime I hear All I Want from Toad the Wet Sprocket, I get goosebumps. This is an absolutely beautiful song and I listen to it over and over again. What song can you listen to over and over again?
