The Desert Sheikh's Secret Virgin Mistress

Apart from the fact that this is simply the maximum number of images I have ever had to work through in my first encounter with a title, there is also the intrigue... what exactly is secret? The fact that she (presumably) is a virgin? Or that she (ditto) is a mistress? And who is it a secret for? I mean the former can't be a secret for her, and the latter can't be for her and him. Us? So why bother reading?

And to think this is all explained away in 124 pages... the human mind is a wonder!

Must be a mango-sheikh to keep her both secret and virgin. Why pay all the maintenance then, I wonder? Preservation you think? I would like to read it to know. Much Curiosity comes.

After all those years in Dubai... you should know. I'm disappointed in you.

Wait! It is, seriously, a book?! Somebody actually wrote a book with that name?!
The human mind is a wonder indeed!
And why the capital 'c' in curiosity?

Yes D... why? And you can't say because the human mind is a wonder - you know you don't qualify. On either count.
