Default What kind of houseplant is this?

Try googling on Adenium obesum.

My fiance and I bought this plant, but it didn't come with a tag and no
one seemed to know what it is exactly.
Could someone please help identify it so that I may give it proper
care? It bloomed in the summer for a few weeks and had long thin bell
shaped pink/red flowers.

Here is a link to a photo of it.

Thanks.
I really appreciate it.
