The Blooming Desert Series

Book excerpt: Three sheikhs from the same kingdom, all wealthy, sexy and incredibly powerful, unexpectedly find love as they struggle with the responsibilities of ancient laws and the women they cannot deny in this heart-pounding trilogy from USA Today bestseller Leslie North. Sheikh Hamid Al-Qasha finds himself in the awkward position of accepting a merchant’s daughter, Tali, as collateral for a debt, and then being forced to arrange a fake engagement to avoid scandal in The Sheikh’s Fake Engagement. But there’s nothing fake about their attraction! In The Sheikh’s Pregnant Wife, billionaire Crown Prince Skandar Al-Basran will do anything to appease the tribes, including temporarily marry Gina, a woman he hardly knows but who is now carrying his child. Will he realize the importance of love before it’s too late? After a whirlwind affair, Raed Al-Qasha returns home, only to find out two years later that he’s a father—and just might be falling in love with Lise, a woman who is the opposite of what he thought he needed in The Sheik’s Unexpected Son. The desert heats up with these three couples who face fake engagements, secret babies, and pretend marriages, only to ultimately discover that love is more powerful than anything in their life. Leslie North’s thrilling trilogy is sure to please lovers of alpha men and the women who tame them!
