Really enjoyed this. This is a secret baby story. Generally I don't have a problem with how an author sets up the whole secret baby thing as I think that people don't always make the wisest decisions. I particularly think that young girls who end up pregnant don't make the wisest decisions. That is not the case however here. I don't think that anyone would have a problem with this set up. The author did a good job with the scenario. The heroine, Melanie, tried several times to inform the hero, R...more
4 Stars! ~ Eight years before, Melanie had been shattered when Sheikh Rafiq had refused to speak with her, and then later when she had spoken to Rafiq’s brother Hassan it was clear that if the child she carried turned out to be Rafiq’s, the mighty Sheikh would use all his powers to take the child from her. Now upon the death of her great-uncle, Melanie has her own financial security and sees that her son needs his father. Rafiq is devastated that he has missed so much of his son’s life, and dema...more

He demands marriage for their son's sake & heroine wavers about her decision to marry him b/c she wants to marry for love but also sees the importance of being married fo...more
I cannot believe that Michelle Reid wrote this book...It was awful especially since the hero Rafiq was such an incredible character in The Sheik's Chosen Wife . She took the absolutely ultra in heroes (dark, brooding, charismatic, but caring to those he loved) and turned him into a monster. Throw in a doormat of a heroine who constantly cowers, whimpers and repeatedly begs for sex and you have an absolute disaster.
Even Rafiq himself sees it.... I have been treating you without honor from the mo...more

I avoided reading this one (even though I've read pretty much all of Michelle Reid's books and generally think she's great) because of the Arabian theme, which I usually really dislike. Not sure why, but I think it's just too unbelievable to me that all of these sheiks can marry these no-longer-virgin women they've knocked up.
Anyway, this one didn't focus all that much on the Arabian/sheik aspect (they only go to the palace for the requisite meet-my-angry-sheik-father at the very end), and I fou...more

Er . . . gag. It was everything I thought it would be! I read one of these books, a very long time ago and this one was like reading the same one again. Same basic plot, same basic characters, same basic descriptions . . . just a change in names and places. I must say I disliked it just as much now as I did then. But at least I got through it. Please . . . NO MORE!

Hi, my name is Michelle Reid and I’ve been writing for Harlequin Mills & Boon for the last twenty years, and the crazy part about it is that I only realised it had been twenty years while updating this page!
So, hang on for a minute while I take this huge milestone in....
Twenty years with almost forty books published or in the pipeline ... I know it isn’t a great average when compared with some...more
