5.0 out of 5 stars The first in the Sister Brides series, and a fantastic read!, October 11, 2005
By 
This review is from: An Arabian Marriage (Sister Brides) (Harlequin Presents) (Paperback)
The Sister Brides series by Lynne Graham is wonderful, because the thread of each sister's story picks up in the next book so we get to find out more about the beloved characters we left behind, and the new things that have happened in their lives. I love that!

This title is the first telling the stories of sisters Freddie, Misty & Ione. Freddie is a gentle family-oriented heroine that uses any means at her disposal to protect her nephew, which sets us off on an emotional story spanning the equator in the intriquing story of both Freddie & Jaspar, the sexy and honorable hero in this tale. Lynne Graham's description of Jaspar is enough to make the ladies swoon!

I am not about to cast religious stones across fictional borders, and think that any culture that is not being bashed would be thankful that theirs is one being written favorably about; so I am somewhat confused by the post below. There is definitely not any bashing going on in this book IMHO, but I understand that everyone takes offense in varying degrees, so I'll just say that I did not get a negative impression of Arab men at all; in fact, if I wasn't already married....

Plus, Lynne Graham's heroes are *all* oversexed. Do we really want to read about a guy with a beer belly who sits blindly in front of the football game on tv all day/every day belching out the occasional "I love you" to the heroine, or about one of Lynne Graham's oversexed heroes?

The line forms behind me, just bring along your favorite LG book to share!

4.0 out of 5 stars Enjoyable Read!, February 28, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: An Arabian Marriage (Sister Brides) (Harlequin Presents) (Paperback)
It amazed me that the previous reviewer was so negative about this book. I read a romance for the emotion and the developing relationship and love between the hero and heroine. I enjoy the foreign, exotic setting, but the setting only serve as the romantic backdrop for the story. I don't get all work up over the details of the setting as long the story and characters grab me. Besides which, the Arab country in the book was FICTIONAL so why couldn't Ms. Graham take some literary liberties? Even if there has never been a Christian shiek in real life, it is not beyond the realm of possibility to have a Christian shiek in a FICTIONAL Arab country since his mother was Christian. I did not find Ms. Graham's portrayal of the Arab world as negative or off the mark. The setting gave me a general feel for the Arab world and that is all I need in a short romance. Lynne Graham is an exceptional writer, and her Harlequin Presents are all a notch or more above the rest. She does the foreign heroes like no other! All her heroes are YUMMY! Most of her books are 5-stars reads for me. The reason I gave this book 4 stars is that I have enjoyed some of her other books a little more. Even her 4-stars books is still much more enjoyable than any other series writer in the Harlequin Presents line.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely The Best : ), July 25, 2006

S (Finland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: An Arabian Marriage (Sister Brides) (Harlequin Presents) (Paperback)
back cover: When Crown Prince Jaspar al-Husayn bursts into Fredrica`s life, she is struck by his arrogance and sensuality. Jaspar has come to take his nephew, Ben, back to his homeland. But Freddy refuses to part with the child she cares for, so she makes a proposal to Jaspar...

Jaspar is God (there`s no words to describe him...he`s perfect alpha male) and Fredrica is so sweet...

best sentence said by Jaspar to Freddy: "The stammer was overkill..." he told her huskily, white, even teeth flashing as he slanted a mocking smile down at her, "but the welcome invitation was ace-"
