The Aristocrat and Desert Prince 
In his young life, Takeyuki has never really known hardship. The youngest son of a wealthy family, he has never had any difficulty getting anything he desired. Now, though, Takeyuki is enjoying his last month of freedom before he begins working at his father’s import company in Tokyo, and he has decided to spend that time with his brother and his sister-in-law in Cassina, a small country in the Middle East.
Little does Takeyuki know that his prideful manner will soon land him in hot water! In Cassina, some dangers are very real and some people are not who they seem. For example, who exactly is the charming, majestic man who won’t stop staring at Takeyuki during their flight to Cassina, and why do his blue eyes make Takeyuki feel like his chest will burst?
The Aristocrat and the Desert Prince explores one boy's journey of self-discovery in the deserts of the Middle East, following him as he discovers his sensual side and finds true love while escaping his humdrum destiny.
Was my very first BL novel and I think it was a good place to start. Was entertaining from start to finish despite its obvious cliches. The setting won me over.
Takeyuki decides to go on vacation and visit his brother and sister-in-law in Cassina. He is from a wealthy family and hasn't had many hardships. He meets a sexy man on his plane ride over to Cassina. This mysterious sexy man seems to be cocky. He sees him one more time at the airport in Cassina. He is unaware of the dangers lurking in Cassina. He decides that he can take care of himself and ditch his 'bodyguard' at the local market. He ends up being kidnapped.As his kidnappers are taking him

A typical yaoi novel plot but still rather cute.(Slight Spoilers Below)My only complaints are that for nearly half of the book there is no romance development after the plane ride in the beginning. It goes on and on for pages about Takeyukis ride in the truck as he is going to the bandits leader as a gift which I thought was quite unnecessary and could have been summed up in one or two paragraphs. Even before that when it was talking about Takeyuki going site seeing - was all that really a must?
Its not often that I read Middle East stories, so I found the setting quite interesting. The illustrations were lovely and I looked forward to them.Im just going to dig right into my thoughts.Full of spoilers and NSFW!Translation/quality:I always find June/DMPs translation good, but the quality can often be lacking - specifically talking about typos.

Although well written, it felt almost distanced or dispassionate to me. There was no connection with the characters, and even the characters' feelings for each other feel superficial. Takeyuki's personality was a little annoying at times-Zayid said it best, 'impetuous airhead'.

Description Concering Books The Aristocrat and Desert Prince
When Takeyuki caught sight of the man's eyes, he gasped. He was being sucked in—into blue eyes that seemed scooped from the Mediterranean itself. With such willful and vibrant eyes fixed on him, Takeyuki didn't know what to say. All he could do was stare back, unable to wrest his gaze away from the man.In his young life, Takeyuki has never really known hardship. The youngest son of a wealthy family, he has never had any difficulty getting anything he desired. Now, though, Takeyuki is enjoying his last month of freedom before he begins working at his father’s import company in Tokyo, and he has decided to spend that time with his brother and his sister-in-law in Cassina, a small country in the Middle East.

I was really disappointed with this one, and felt absolutely no connection between the main characters. For 95% of the story they were either too passive with each other, or too prickly and argumentative. Zayid constantly treated Takeyuki like an annoying child (and rightly so - he was a bit of a whiny idiot), and then suddenly at the end...BAM! They're declaring their love for each other and jumping into bed. And that sex scene was just awful. The descriptions were silly and just so...unsexy.Was my very first BL novel and I think it was a good place to start. Was entertaining from start to finish despite its obvious cliches. The setting won me over.
