In Sheikh Kishon’s small kingdom, it’s tradition that older sons marry before the younger ones. Problem is, his younger brother desperately wants to get married—and marriage is the last thing Kishon desires. Lucky for him, artist Chloe Sanderson is intrigued by his offer of a marriage of convenience. He’s been flirting with the sexy American on his visits to the US for months, admiring her spunk … spunk and easy way with people. Knowing her desire to travel, he offers her a world tour if she’ll be his fake wife. To Kishon, it’s the perfect plan. Not only does his brother get to marry the woman he loves, but Kishon gets the elders off his back. He just has to make sure no one discovers he’s marrying for business, something that would put him in a bad light with the elders.
For Chloe, marrying this sexy sheikh isn’t much of a sacrifice, especially since it’s all a farce. She’ll get to see the world and paint all the beautiful sites she’s always dreamed of. Sure, actually marrying Kishon is a bit surreal, but passion-filled nights and romantic days soon make her realize that nothing is fake about her feelings for Kishon, even though his feelings are pretty clear. No love. No future. Once his brother marries, her romance with the hard-headed sheikh will be over.

King needs a wife – any takers! This is about King Kishon and Chloe. King Kishon needs to marry in order for his younger brother Sheikh Chakir can marry. Chloe is a bartender who has been flirting with the King and when she goes to help a table of drunken men, one of them grabs her and the King is on his feet pulling the guy away, but then another comes in to fight and Chloe hits him and the King states that he was protecting his fiancée. So, the story takes off from there. Does jealousy become an issue for the marriage to dissolve before another marriage starts. Will Chloe allow this fake marriage even if she obtains the traveling and painting that she desperately wants? Does a trip to Paris resolve it all? I loved this book.

The perfect addition to the series
Chloe, a bartender, befriended Kishon, sheikh and King of Hamamri, at the upscale hotel bar where she works. As the story progresses a statement is made in haste, an agreement is reached, and getting to the truth of the matter could destroy it all. Leslie North’s The Sheikh’s Fake Marriage is the perfect addition to the Sheikhs of Hamari series. Now we only have to wait to see what happens to Matek.

What started out as a marriage of convenience, turned into true love.
Sheikh Kishon is only marrying Chloe to allow his younger brother marry his true love. However, a marriage that started out as friends with benefits, turned in to so much more for both the Sheikh and Chloe. From the beginning, Kishon and Chloe’s chemistry jumped off the pages. I could not put down this book as i needed to see how the relationship evolved to the very end. And evolve it did. Leslie North did not disappoint with her second installment of Sheikhs of Hamari. You will not be disappointed to read this trilogy.
Their Route To Happiness –
Chloe had a hard and fast rule of never dating customer at the bar where she worked, but she still looked forward to her chats with Kishon. Kishon was weary of serious relationships, as he wasn’t sure if the woman liked him for himself or his title. Kishon and Chloe spent a lot of time as friends, but a statement uttered in haste, put them in a situation they couldn’t get out of. I truly enjoyed reading about Kishon and Chloe’s love story, including the denials and acceptance of his they actually felt about each other. This is a book worth your time and money.

Let’s make a deal.
Kishon is all business but free spirit American Chloe looses him up. The set up is his younger brother wants to marry but as he’s older, he’s got to marry first. Then there’s that fib that went wide that she’s his fiancée. So, it’s a deal. Chloe gets to travel, he gets married but there’s a time limit and rules. And plenty of steamy times.
Kirshon and Chloe’s story was a entertaining combination of heat, heart, tension, turmoil and drama. The marriage of convenience plot worked well for this couple and I really liked that it was the male character that found himself thrust into this position. This is a twist I’ve seen before but usually it is the female character that must marry in order to let her sister marry. So yeah, I found this kind of fresh and quite appealing. I liked both characters and loved them together as a couple. In total, a very good read and a solid addition to this series.
I’m loving this second book in a new series that doesn’t disappoint. A marriage of convenience takes on a whole new meaning when Sheikh Kishon offers Chloe a one in a million chance of a lifetime. New country, great chemistry and an unexpected relationship gives life to these two wonderful character that will have you cheering for their HEA. I loved the storyline and likable characters in this feel good, swoon worthy romance read that is a definite must read. I can’t wait for the next story!
This is an interesting story with Chloe,working in a bar meeting and becoming friendly with Kishon, who after six months has become a regular customer.They have a great connection and he needs a wife to become king in his country so he proposes a short term marriage. This is their story. The author does a great job developing the story and delivering a well written story. It moves fluidly and is an entertaining read.

In Sheikh Kishon’s kingdom, they still follow the old tradition where an older son must marry before the younger ones. Although Kishon is not interested in marriage for himself, when his younger brother Chakir desperately wants to get married, he begins to think whether he has any options.
Kishon has been visiting the U.S. to attend various meetings. Afterward he always stops in a bar where he is friendly with bartender, Chloe Sanderson. When a drunk tries to grope her, she punches the man and loses her job. Kishon tried to calm things down by saying Chloe was his fiancée, which of course got picked up by the media. Using this to his advantage, Kishon makes Chloe an offer of a marriage of convenience, where he would give her a world tour where she can work on her art, in return for a couple months of being his fake wife. The elders will stop pestering him to find a wife, and his brother will then be able to marry. But as the two of them grow closer, are they sure they want to walk away from what they have? Those feelings seem very real for Chloe – but Kishon had made it clear there was to be no love and no future for them. Does he still feel that way?
I love this author’s books. She is so talented at bringing emotions to life to make the characters more believable and real. The story line was very good and well-paced. Grab your copy and see if a HEA is waiting for them when their marriage of convenience is no longer needed.

Kishon was not looking to get married but his younger brother wanted to marry but he couldn’t unless Kishon gets married first. Chloe’s friend noticed how much Kishon was fawning over Chloe and her friend teased her about it. But, he was leaving to go back to Hamari. Kishon has asked her to go to dinner with him but she didn’t date customers. Chloe was always polite as she needed the tips she dreamed of traveling and painting around the world. The guys at the table were getting out of hand but then Kishon came in and saved her. One of the guys was yelling and Kishon told him that Chloe was his fiancé and leave her alone. Meanwhile Chloe punched one of the guys in the face and he boss fired her. He tells her about all the hotels that he liked around the world. Chakir called a Kishon and told him that he heard that Kishon was engaged. Kishon knew he had to do something so he thought he could talk to Chloe making her able to travel she could be his fake wife. Kishon went to Chloe’s house to make her the proposition of becoming his fake wife until after his brother was married . Then they could get a divorce and she would have money to travel

Kirshon and Chloe enter this fake arrangement to get themselves out of a predicament. Even though they’re attracted to each other, they fight it as much as they can. This causes problems and of course they can’t hold off for very long. They’re sexy and stubborn and the story flows well.

Sheikh Kirshon has no desire to be married, but according to tradition, since he is the oldest son, he has to marry first. The issue is his brother Prince Sheikh Chakir is engaged and eager to get married. Chloe found herself in a bad predicament when one of the patrons at the bar grabbed her. Sheikh Kirshon finds himself not only protecting Chloe but announcing she is his fiance’ unexpectedly.
She thought he was joking until they had a conversation discussing the benefits of them marrying one another. Although they both had feelings for one another, Chloe didn’t think he would be interested in her because she was a waitress.
Things are different after they arrive in Hamari.
