Well, Bob, I didn't know you were into bodice rippers <g>  I've read some 
excerpts from the book and from what I've read, it is Barbara Cartland does 
Mohammad.  "'the pain of consummation soon melted away. Muhammad was so 
gentle. I hardly felt the scorpion's sting. To be in his arms, skin to skin, 
was the bliss I had longed for all my life"  Ah, she was somewhere between 9 
and 11 when she was married to Mohammad, so that would be pure over sexed, 
over active imagination on the author's part!
