Everything happens for a reason. It's a common cliche that some people believe in. But, when a perfect life is disturbed, then the reason has to be good.
Arthur Roberts was living the perfect life in the early nineteenth century. He had a luxurious happy life, a loving family, and engaged to the woman of his dreams. He was planning for his upcoming wedding when he found out that his mother suffers from a fatal curse, and has only one year to live if she didn't receive the cure. The only cure for this curse was in the faraway Arabian desert. Arthur asked for a help from Frank, his best friend. Who also happened to be his fiance's brother. Frank was a wealthy plantation owner. Frank sent his slave, Delmar, with Arthur to be his loyal servant in the Arabian desert. Frank gave Arthur a document that proves that Delmar will be Arthur's slave abroad, so that Delmar won't escape. Delmar became a loyal slave for Arthur, and helped him to get the cure. But, on their way home, Delmar asked Arthur to free him, so that he can go to his family in Nigeria.
Arthur, who strongly believed in his superiority over the slaves, refused to set Delmar free. But what happened next was unexpected. Both Delmar and Arthur got cursed in that enchanted part of the Arabian desert. And while they were trying to set themselves free, Arthur discovered the true meanings of love, friendship and sacrifice.
How did they got cursed? Did they manage to free themselves? Why being cursed was the best thing that ever happened for Arthur?

My quotes:-
Some quotes I would like to share from my book to my fellow authors and readers
This is my first book so your opinion will be very valuable to me:
The slaves kept working until the twilight lit it’s fire in the heart of the horizon.
Negative thinking is the typhus of the soul, deadly and contagious.
Being cursed was the best thing that ever happened to me, it brought me to you.
Delmar was a tall black muscular slave, the blackness of the night left kisses in his eyes.
Get of your high horse proud boy, look in any mirror you can find and then look at me! Am the Master now!
Oh my god! Am white! I think we have swapped our bodies!
Arthur realized that Asem was like the cactus in this desert, harsh from the outside, but soft and sweet from the inside.
Her love is like the desert’s mirage, desirable, but impossible to get.
