Olivia Gates

It's Olivia Gates, of course it was awesome!

Well, jeez.  Doesn't she just know how to set it up so that our H/h just rip each other to shreds.  And as if that isn't enough, everything Farah believed to be true about herself is seemingly torn away from her when it appears that the only person who ever wanted her for her is dead.  How does Ola pull that one out of the fire?  You'll just have read it for yourself.

I haven't read a Silhouette for a long time so I thought I would move out of my box a little.

The book was good for a short read. I wasn't particularly drawn in by the hero, Kamal, or heroine, Aliyah. I give the book 3 of 5 stars. It was well written but not exceptional.

Third in the Throne of Judar series, THE DESERT KING by Olivia Gates tells the passionate and tempestuous romance of the third brother Kamal Aal Massod.

Their farce of a marriage will save his kingdom. And in return for an heir, Kamal Aal Masood will give his new wife Aliyah anything—except the trust and intimacy she desperately wants.

The future of Judar rests with Farah Beaumont, a foreigner who wants nothing to do with her heritage.

And to secure his country's peace, prince Shehab Aal Masood must make her his bride—by any means necessary.

There was nowhere Carmen could hide from this prince of Judar. No stone he wouldn't turn to find her, no wall he couldn't tear down. Nothing would stop Farooq Aal Masood from claiming the mother of his baby.

The future of Judar is in Shehab Aal Masood's hands but he must make Farah Beaumont his bride by whatever means necessary. He is prepared to do his duty but is appalled at her scandalous lifestyle until she walks into the room and he's slammed with emotions he's never felt before. Farah is nothing like he expected and is charmed by her candor and charming impulsiveness.
