Publisher Description
Rene is done with men.
After discovering her fiancé cheating just before the wedding, she’s determined to make the most of what would have been her honeymoon at a luxury hotel. A little escape is just what she needs to try to put the past behind her. But a chance encounter with a tall, dark and handsome stranger at the hotel pool leaves her feeling flustered. At first she’s put off by his arrogant attitude, but she’s quickly swept away by his confident smile and undeniably masculine charm.
Sheikh Tazeem is worth billions, but when the sexy American assumes he’s a hotel employee, he doesn’t bother to correct her. He came to escape the stress of his everyday life and despite her slightly brazen, untraditional attitude, something about her calls to him. When they happen to meet again, he can’t ignore his feelings for the beautiful brunette or their sizzling chemistry.
Fate is determined to bring the strangers together, but when the truth about his identity comes out, Sheikh Tazeem’s lies may ultimately lead to heartbreak.
Customer Reviews
Great quick read
Was a lovely quick romance read. I Enjoyed the story line although it was short and everything happened quickly. Still I enjoyed it very much.
Unfortunately one is the minimum star rating!
This book was terrible I cannot finish it. Normally I have a nice review only policy, as I have worked in a library and I respect that a person's taste in books is as individual as with any other art. However, this book is truly bad even taking into account that I rarely read romance as a genre. Some people might say that because it's free my expectations may have been too high, but I have just read two other freebies and they were quite enjoyable. I didn't download these titles expecting something so groundbreaking it would be worthy of a Nobel prize or bring about world peace, but I did enjoy a quiet afternoon reading the other books.
In this book the dialogue and storytelling is stilted at best. As for the plot I can't really comment having only read the first few chapters and then skipping through hoping for some improvement; it seems fairly straightforward though beginning with a jilted bride-to-be who meets a seemingly arrogant pool boy in a case of mistaken identity. Again I would find nothing wrong with this, the plots of the other books I downloaded were also fairly straightforward, but the book needs to have some flow and endeavor to develop characters and give depth to them and their surrounds. I gave up when I found I was reading a character's thoughts before they would voice them using the exact same phrasing, resulting in:
She thought xyz. She said 'xyz'.
If a little bit longer had been spent editing this book perhaps the end result would be on par with the other free titles from this genre that I have been reading.
If you're thinking about this book think again, don't waste your download usage , instead get one of the hundreds of other fantastic titles on here and give this a miss!
