I really loved Kardal, Sabrina and their romance, but the nonsense regarding his parents bugged me big time and prevented me from giving this book a higher rating.

This was my second book that I have read by Susan Mallery. I would have to say that she is becoming one of my favorite authors. I couldn't put this book down.
Princess Sabra aka Sabrina has four brothers and divorced parents. One parent being the King of a country in the middle east and her mother who lives a lively lifestyle in California. Sabrina is ignored by both of her parents and is sent to private schools and then is pushed from one parent to another as they both believe she is a problem....more

Ok, I will say it again. I LOVE SHEIK’S.
God damn I wish I knew why they appeal to me so much, but they just do. The desert locations, dominant, passionate and aggressive men are all so completely different from my sad little life in Wagga Wagga.
I think there must be some romantic, time warp thingy that I fall into whenever I start a Sheik book – because realistically most of the stories are about arrogant, head strong men that think love is something a woman feels to pass the time and all they...more

I had a few problems with this book and was a little lost at first. It’s strange that Kardal has the same last name as the other sheikh’s mentioned on the previous books, but his ife is completely different and his also a prince of the desert. It took me some time to actually understand the reasons, but I don’t believe it was necessary for him to use his father name.
Other point I did not like was the way Kardal treated Sabrina. Yes, she was raised on the States but that does not mean she’s a bad...more

Princess "Sabra" Sabrina of Bahania never thought that she would die because of her impulsive desisions. But then, why was she alone in middle of the dessert, during a sandstorm, having lost her horse and food? The fact that her father decided to arrane her marriage.
In her way to discover the City of Thieves, she is facing death but Kardal saves her but now she has to become his slave.
Princesses and Princes have to face love and restore the relationships with their families

This was my favorite so far! Not sure why. I just really enjoyed the story, and I liked the prince a lot. Ok, I may not have liked him in real life, but on paper he sizzled!
Only okay for me. I have to wonder why some of these are rated so high. Susan Mallery is a decent writer but not all her novels are equal. Just sayin'.
I really like the entire series but am having trouble finding some of the ones I've missed.
Diantara semua buku di seri ini... Aq suka yg ini... Aku suka cerita awalnya... cerita perjodohan yg sangat menarik... rekomend banget utk dibaca
One of the better books in this series. Nothing fantastic, but entertaining enough. It kind of bugs me just how similarly arrogant and sexist all the princes are at the beginning of these novels. Of course, they turn round by the end, but they certainly aren't my idea of an ideal hero.
want more!!!!!!
I LOVED IT!!!!!!!
