Holly Remington can’t believe the burning chemistry she feels with Sheikh Malik Abdul-Rahman. It’s like getting knocked in the head with a baseball bat—except far more pleasant. Though she’s supposed to be all business while her company tries to win a lucrative development contract in the oil-rich country of Qadir, Holly simply can’t stop herself from happily succumbing to his charm. When she’s … she’s called back home after her father suffers a stroke, thoughts of her sheikh romance are never far away. It’s only when she’s ready to return to Qadir to continue her work that she discovers Malik gave her more than sexy memories. She’s pregnant—with twins. And when she sees him again, Malik makes it painfully clear he’s not only rejecting her development proposal, he’s not interested in any other formal proposal either. He wants all of her.
But Holly isn’t sure that’s available, or ever will be.
Sheikh Malik has never reacted to another woman like he does Holly. She’s all business—at least in the beginning—and he finds himself oddly compelled to get to know her other side. Intimately. When he finds out she’s pregnant with his children, he find himself wanting her more. But when Holly begins to talk about how she wants to develop his oasis herself—the one that her company had been desperate to buy and the very one his mother loved and hoped one day would belong to Malik’s future wife, he pulls the breaks on their whirlwind romance. How can he love a woman who seems so out of touch with everything he values?
And yet, how can he not love the only woman whose ever touched his soul?

Love to meet a Sheikh! This story is about Sheikh Malik and American developer Holly. She is there with her boss to help with presenting development proposals to the Sheikh’s family for their properties. He catches a glimpse of her while she is at the Oasis of his families talking pictures. At first, he is just stunned by her beauty but once she tells him what her plans would be for this property, he becomes upset that they did not respect his wishes as noted on the invitation for proposal. Unfortunately, Holly didn’t read that part until later that night.
Sheikh has not been able to function since he met her and now has decided to go seek her out in which is where the story takes off. Holly knows better but after a tender sweet kiss, she cannot reason not going for it. This was a sweet loving story that allowed for the Sheikh to appreciate an independent American woman that knew what she wanted and what she would take… I can’t wait to read about the brothers as one is a jokester all the way!

I received this ARC from Bad Boy Update. I love a good Sheikh romance! Holly is in Qadir with her boss to bid a development project for the royal family. Malik will entertain a development project, as long as his mother’s oasis is left untouched. It is that oasis that draws Holly away from the bidders, and what draws Malik to her. He is intrigued by Holly and can’t get her out of his mind. What starts out as an innocent dinner will start them down a path that could either drive them apart, or give them everything they want out of life and love. Such a great story line!
A wonderful story line and fantastic characters you can’t help but fall in love with. The chemistry between Holly and Sheikh Malik is fantastic. A book that’s hard to put down from the first word til the last word.

The author continues to give us characters we can care about. Holly travels to Qadir for work and meets Prince Malik. They have an attraction that they try to fight, but are unable to. The consequences are more than either were prepared for.

A short and sweet story. Holly is in Qadir to work when she meets the crown Prince Malik. He is instantly attracted to her but believes that they don’t share the same values. He is unable to stay away and the attraction is reciprocated by her. Mixing traditions is always difficult and these two have a short time to discover the truth of each other before they can look to the future.
The plot was well written and well planned and the characters were so well created that I was glued to my kindle until the turn of the very last page!
This is a lovely story about finding exactly what you need even if it takes some work. Malik and Holly have an undeniable attraction and instant connection. It’s hard for them to resist each other but nothing is ever easy. There’s miscommunication and hurts but overall, there’s love and affection that I was glad to see them work it out in the end.

Book One of this Series is Terrific!
Author Leslie North has given her readers another great series. This is book one and was a good start. The main characters, Holly Remington, a talented Associate with a firm who is bidding on a big development projection the tiny county of Qadir. And Crown Prince, Sheikh Malik Abdul-Rahman.
It’s a great storyline on how they come together, get to know each other, but only on a superficial level, which leaves room for misunderstandings and hurt feelings. They must work it out or regret it. Will they?
I’m recommending this book for your reading enjoyment and satisfaction. Peace.

I really enjoyed Holly and Malik’s book these two met while she is working on a development in Qadir, Malik sees her and want to get to know her better the chemistry between them was immediate but Holly enjoys her work and he is old school add in some drama and a pregnancy and you have a really good read I really enjoyed this book.
The sheikh and the architect. Because of the first time Malik met Holly and she talked about her plan for the Oasis, a place owned by his mother and revered by his family, Malik has thought all Holly cared about was work and high rise buildings. And even though he can’t resist her and she is expecting his babies, he doesn’t know who he can let her develop the Oasis. But he better decide what his feelings and priorities are or he will lose her and his kids. I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review
Holly went to Qadir with her boss Clifton to put in a portfolio and a bid to develop some of the areas around the area. Then she went and fell for crown prince Malik and found that she was pregnant with twins. Clifton fired because of her falling for a client but after they got married she started her own business there. So everything was great and a very happy ending for them! Glad that I thought to try a new author!
A sweet start to a new sheikh series that doesn’t disappoint. I enjoyed Holly and Malik’s storyline that is filled with great chemistry and the development of their characters as they stumble through surprises that makes for an entertaining read. I can’t wait for the next story in this series that sizzle.
I voluntarily reviewed an arc of this book.
This is the first book in the Qadir Sheikhs series, Sheikh Malik is the crown prince to the country of Qadir, he’s instantly smitten with Holly when she’s there for business for development in the country. Both Malik and Holly have flaws which makes them relatable. They have plenty chemistry but definitely need to work on their communication. Wonderful story, can’t wait for the next brother….
