The Sheikh's Pretend Fiancee
Liyah Reed returns to the Middle East hoping for something more than her humdrum life back at home, but what she finds is beyond her wildest dreams...
Five years after her first stay as a foreign exchange student, American librarian Liyah returns to the Middle East. The move goes against her practical nature, but even a plain jane like herself sometimes thirsts for adventure. When a favor for a friend thrusts her into the path of beguiling billionaire Asad Sharif, Liyah's sensible life may become something far more... sensual. Liyah is ensnared by Asad's seductive charm, but she's way out of her depth.
Billionaire businessman Asad Sharif has willing women falling at his feet on multiple continents, but what he needs is a wife...or at least the appearance of one. To convince investors that he's a dependable man, what Asad needs is a fake fiancee. The bookish American Liyah is the perfect choice, and when she accepts his pretend proposal, Asad's sister is eager to help Liyah look the part. When his shy wallflower unexpectedly blooms into a stunning beauty, Asad will have to work doubly hard not to lose himself in Liyah's strawberry blonde hair and enticing curves.
The Sheikh's Tamed Bride
Rashid Sharif has never apologized for his wild lifestyle, but after one scandal too many his family is fed up with his playboy ways. He'll agree to his brother's outrageous demand that he marry, but it won't be to some wallflower as his conservative family would prefer. If he's going through with this farce, there's only one woman he'll take as his wife - his sister-in-law's American friend Mila. She's a rebellious little thing, with fiery passion simmering beneath her icy exterior. Although Mila's never been more than coldly polite to him, Rashid will do what it takes to win her over.
Mila's always been a wild child, but when she chose to follow her dreams to Dubai it wasn't to work as a glorified waitress. She needs a chance to get ahead, but when that opportunity comes, it's not a job she's offered - it's a marriage. Rashid Sharif is ridiculously handsome, richer than sin... and a complete player. Mila wants nothing to do with the womanizer, even when he offers her more money than she could make in a lifetime. But when the notorious bad boy begins to play nice, Mila finds it hard to resist temptation.
As Rashid works to woo Mila, a simple seduction suddenly seems like something more. But can she ever trust the sinful sheikh, or will Mila always worry that Rashid is only playing games with her heart?
The Sheikh's Stubborn Assistant
American college grad Katie is as ambitious as she is creative, so when she learns of a friend's brother who owns an art gallery in Dubai, she leaps at the chance to jumpstart her career in the luxurious city. But her dream job quickly becomes a nightmare when she discovers her new boss is as unpleasant as he is handsome. Khalid may make her pulse race but not even his dark mystique, lithe muscles and ridiculous wealth are enough to make up for his rudeness. Katie won't back down though, and she won't quit until Khalid realizes exactly what she has to offer.
Some say Sheikh Khalid Sharif has more love for art than for people, but he never concerns himself with the opinions of others. He's determined to expand his gallery into one of Dubai's greatest museums and nothing will get in his way - not even his fire-haired new gallery assistant. Khalid knew it was a mistake to hire the Western woman - the determination in her amber green eyes is a distraction, and her striking beauty practically makes his blood boil. Despite this, Khalid refuses to let Katie alter his course.
As Katie and Khalid continue to clash, their attraction simmers just beneath the surface. But is it enough to melt Khalid's icy exterior or will Katie be left out in the cold?
