Sheikhs and Cowboys - A Review of 2013

2013 was quite a year for me. It started off with the publication of my second sheikh romance, The Desert Sheikh, which became a huge hit! Seeing the book reach Number 1 on Amazon and then staying there for 3 months was amazing.

I then went on to write two more sheikh romances, The Sheikh's Beloved and A Bride For The Sheikh, with the Bride romance hitting Number 1 on Amazon yesterday. What a way to end the year!

THE DESERT SHEIKH has won a top award!

Reviews can be nerve-wracking. Will the reader like it? Love it? Hate it? Everyone has different tastes and opinions, and that's good as it makes life more interesting; won't it be boring if we were all the same! However, I don't think any author likes to read a negative review, especially when it can have an impact on what a lot of other readers think. Therefore, when I received an email from the extremely popular site, The Romance Reviews, saying they had just posted a review of The Desert Sheikh, I was a bit nervous about clicking on the link to see it. Luckily, I needn't have worried.  Not only did the reviewer give it 5 stars, but The Desert Sheikh has also been awarded the site's Top Pick!

Here's an excerpt from the review:

This is a fast-paced and exotic tale of true love. I was instantly enraptured by the beautiful imagery and captivating characters. The story is full of twists and turns that will have you on the edge of your seat in anticipation. 

For an exciting romance check out THE DESERT SHEIKH trilogy!

You can read the rest of it here.

Thank you Katie Codie, the reviewer from Curse of the Bibliophile, and thank you Romance Reviews!

The Desert Sheikh is now on video!

I just love this video of The Desert Sheikh which was created by the very talented Patti Roberts at Paradox Productions featuring all three books of The Desert Sheikh trilogy.

I'm also over at Patti's site talking about ice cream, writing in my PJs (no photos!) and my favourite quotes, including, 'I used to be Snow White, but I drifted'. Who said that? To check, go to my interview at Patti Roberts and Guests.

Thank you Patti and I hope everyone enjoys The Desert Sheikh video.

A whole new online addiction: Pinterest!

I’ve recently developed a whole new online addiction: Pinterest!

I first joined several months ago and created a couple of groups of pictures (boards) based on my first two romance novels, The Royal Sheikh and Her Latin Lover. I also created a miscellaneous group of pictures that I just generally liked the look of. Having done that, I promptly forgot all about the web site!

Double, Triple Sheikh Romance Novel Giveaway!

What could be better this Valentine's Day than a free romance novel, except perhaps several free romances! This year I'm celebrating the release of my bestselling sheikh romance series by giving away a free ebook copy of the complete set, The Desert Sheikh (3 books in 1!) In addition, I'm also offering a free ebook copy of my first sheikh romance, The Royal Sheikh.


What are people saying about The Desert Sheikh?

The Desert Sheikh was filled with sweet romance and two people working to bridge the cultural gaps that kept them apart. A strong woman finds a strong man, and they come together to create a successful marriage of two cultures. Love is the best bridge between people. Highly recommended.
5 stars

I loved the way the author broke the novel into three different sections. These sections are about the same couple but during different phases of their romance. Each section has a different obstacle they have to face. I like how they are woven together and I have to admit I fell a little in love with the sheikh myself. Where do I find this guy?
5 stars


What about The Royal Sheikh?

The Royal Sheikh is a page turner that I read in one evening. I love romance and this book will warm your heart. Clare is an architect in training and meets Rafiq one evening while out with her friend, Louise. Rafiq and Clare meet in the most unromantic way, although he quickly becomes entranced by her. They are both intrigued by each other and secretly hope to see each other again.
5 stars

The book is a must read for the romantic at heart. I loved the turns and twists in the plot. When things were going right I felt like cheering, and when things were going badly I felt like crying. That is certainly the tell-tell signs of a great book. If you believe in romance then you will want to read this book.
5 stars

The Desert Sheikh. Now a #1 Amazon Bestseller!

What an amazing week it's been! Just over a week ago I released The Desert Sheikh, a sheikh romance in three parts, and already it's reached a top spot on Amazon and is now a #1 Best Seller! As well as hitting number 1 in Hot New Releases in Eastern Drama, it has reached number 5 in Amazon's list for Short Story Romances.

The individual parts of the story, Kidnapped By The Sheikh, Married To The Sheikh and The Sheikh's Son are also doing well. They are in the top 4 in Hot New Releases in Eastern Drama and they are in the top 10 in Best Sellers in the same category.

I would like to thank everybody who has downloaded a copy of one of my sheikh books. It looks like a sheikh romance is just what's needed to escape the cold on a long, dark winter's night.

Hot New Release! The Desert Sheikh

This week I am super excited to see my latest romance novel, The Desert Sheikh, on the virtual bookshops where it is already selling fast!

What's it about?

The first book, Kidnapped By The Sheikh, is about a woman, Dr Sarah Greenwich, who is kidnapped on her way to the airport by a Bedouin warlord, Sheikh Akbar Al-Zafir, in the mistaken belief that she is the British Ambassador's wife. Eventually, the sheikh discovers that he has been tricked, but by then it is too late, he has already fallen in love with his captive. . .

However, in Book 2, Married To The Sheikh, Sarah quickly discovers that life in the desert is not as idyllic as it could be. Although the sheikh is a passionate, sensual lover, he is not the perfect husband. Also, there are other women who want to get into Sheikh Akbar's bed. Eventually, Sarah is forced to make a terrible choice. . .

In Book 3, The Sheikh's Son, Sarah and Akbar struggle to reconcile their completely different lifestyles and cultures: she's a doctor living in London, while he's a Bedouin ruler from the Arabian peninsula. However, the presence of Ali, their only child and the sheikh's heir, forces them into trying to find a solution. . .

Although each story stands on its own and can be bought separately as novellas, they are also published together as a complete book, The Desert Sheikh, so people can read them in order (and save money!!)
