Friendship #3

The Sheik's Beautiful Intruder

Rate this book
Nikki had to find Brianna. Her friend had disappeared, and the only clue she had was a mysterious e-mail with a strange emblem in the corner. That emblem led her to Nazar Iha Zayid, Sheik of Yafar. Nazar was in town at the same time her friend disappeared, and the e-mail described a strange and likely illegal plot to manipulate world markets. Put these facts together with a powerful man with infinite resources, and Nikki believes she's found the source of Brianna's disappearance. She's determined to find her friend and free her from the man’s powerful clutches. What she doesn’t expect is falling into his clutches herself. Nor does she anticipate enjoying those clutches so much. The man is diabolical! He captures her body, then captures her heart. But after losing her parents at such an early age, Nikki doesn’t trust anyone easily.

Nazar can’t believe that the slender, beautiful brunette defeated his security and slipped into his palace grounds undetected! She was either insanely fearless, or shockingly loyal to travel halfway around the world to save her friend. So when both his mind and body tell him that the hypnotically beautiful Nikki is the woman he has been waiting for, Nazar is even more frustrated by her suspicions of him. Can he overcome her distrust of the world? Can he convince her that he will cherish her heart and protect it for the rest of his life?

Find out in The Sheik's Beautiful Intruder, book three of The Friendship Series.

Along the way, she received a BS in History and held different jobs in the real estate, government consulting, and financial industries. All during that time, though, she was always writing, using her personal experiences, dreams, and travels throughout the United States, Europe and the Caribbean as backdrops for her stories.

"The Sheik's Beautiful Intruder" is the story of Nikki and Nazar.

Umm. Meh.

An average book with a confused heroine on a lookout for her kidnapped friend, and tracking her down to the town of Yafar. She then decides to sneak into the ruling Sheik's palace, demand that her release her- but does not expect him to capture and seduce her instead.

Loads of banter, drama, lovemaking, confessions and HEA. Not EL's best.

Safe
2/5

A good story that kept my interest.

Most anyone would admire Nazar.

On the other hand, Nikki was hard for me to like. Combative, even when completely unnecessary. Her automatic reactions were to lash out, insult or criticize. She may have trust issues, but she looked down her nose at people even more so than people with great wealth. Always assuming the worst of anyone but her two friends. Some of that is understandable. But not all of it.

The threat of danger is a thin one, but her fear for his safety was a good pivotal moment. Nice story.

Female lead thinks she is Tom Cruise and can just sneak into a fortified Palace without getting caught. Oh! by the way, this is all without any combat or special forces training.

Another Great Book by Elizabeth Lennox

I love this book but then again I say that about nearly every Elizabeth Lennox book I read. I'm a big sucker for a HEA romance novel and Elizabeth Lennox's book are simple and very entertaining reads. I love the female lead in this book. I love her daring and love for life and loyalty to her friends. And as a horse lover I absolutely adore the parts of the book that involve the horses. I really enjoy all of Elizabeth Lennox's books but this one was exceptionally well done save for a few typos which are the norm with her books.

I thought the book was great.

I liked how Nazar and Nikki kept meeting. She had only one purpose to find her friend. Nazar had only one purpose and that was to find Nikki and find out how she evaded his security. He also liked that she had no idea who he was.

This book will be a reread for me along with the others in the Friendship series.

I'm glad that she had more fight to her. But they always fall in love so fast. I liked how the books were all linked to each other.
