Laura Bliss is an assistant location scout with no sense of direction—which is how she got stuck with a faulty GPS and the job of scouting sand dunes rather than the oasis her boss is currently viewing. With the sun going down and Laura seriously worrying for her life, she stumbles across a tent that looks more like a palace than a campsite. Dehydrated and burnt, it seems like salvation—until men wearing desert garb and toting AK47’s ride out in jeeps to gather her. When I started reading I couldn't put it down.Leslie North is magnifysent writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book. |

Absolutely loved the story. Both Raheem and Laura were superb, the chemistry was off the chart. I've read most of Leslie North's books and have to say this is by far the best one and cannot wait to read the follow up books. |
A big thank you to NetGalley and Relay Publishing for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. First in a series. This one was sort of our there to me. Laura was so combative and hostile at first-class she know the culture? Is cussing acceptable for women? Then the whole quick love, and to top it off I didn't understand the film company buying land situation??! What the heck?? It is a quick read and the country seems fascinating. I rate this a 3. I think many romance readers can overlook the confusing parts and just focus on the romance. |
I love Leslie North's Shiekh books. This was a great start to a new series and I really enjoyed it. Who wouldn't want a Shiekh of their own? |
Laura is an assistant location scout for a movie production company. She is Djeva to scout locations for a movie. She gets lost and ends up in the camp of the Sheikh Raheem, the third in line for the throne. He takes her back to the palace and offers her a job. Help him promote his country and preserve the wildlife. She takes him up on his offer but his sister are whispering in his ear that she’s using him. But Raheem has falling hard and fast for Laura and her for him. When he thinks she has deceived him, can he keep his favorite caves and the woman he’s fallen for? Short story. Could’ve used a little more background on Laura and Raheem. Steamy. Romance in a foreign country. Meddling sister. |
This was a good read and a super start to Leslie's new series. This is Raheem and Laura's books and is one of my all-time favorites from Leslie, as usual, it was really well written and held my interest all the through if you have enjoyed her other books you will want to read this one. |
A chance meeting, a bold request and the opportunity of a lifetime is what sums up this story to me. You have, Laura, a location scout assistant who gets lost while looking for the perfect location to shoot a film and she runs into Raheem. He's composed and calm on the outside, and also cautious because she's wandered right into their secured territory and as a Sheikh, that's alarming but Laura's not just bold, she's feisty and inquisitive. Raheem's learned to hold back on his answers and impulses. Together, they make the perfect team. I liked the story and how Laura was not shy to reach out to Raheem and initiate intimacy. Thank you NetGalley for the eARC. |

Really good premise. Great to show a strong woman going above and beyond to partner with the Shiekh. |
LOVE LOVE these cozy North stories about a dream Sheikh that only has eyes for his own true love. This Meddling Sisters Series just did not have enough of the sisters to show their control over their brother Raheem. Looking only to fund his pet project he drafts Laura Bliss to help him achieve his goal. Nice story but the characters did not pierce my heart. "A copy of this book was provided by Relay Publishing via Netgalley with no requirements for a review. Comments here are my honest opinion." |

I would have liked to see Raheem and Laura get to have more time together. Their time was spent doing a lot of business and a little recreation. Plus they only had one night together. I used to more romance in North's books. |
