A quick romantic fix, September 14, 2011
This review is from: The Black Sheep Sheik (Harlequin Intrigue Series) (Mass Market Paperback)
Amir Khalid, sheik of the Mediterranean island nation of Jamala, wakes up confused and disoriented in an isolated cabin. His immediate thought is that he has been kidnapped and he needs to escape. However, he soon learns that his captor is Dr. Isabelle Andrews, the woman he had a torrid weekend fling with but has never forgotten, and she is now quite pregnant with his child. He has no choice but to protect them both from his enemies, but he has been left weak from his comatose state. The thought of his unborn child strengthens him to take action, and to convince Isabelle that they must marry. Will he be able to keep his new found family safe? Will he uncover who is behind the plot to destroy him? And most importantly, will he persuade Isabelle that her place is by his side?
Dr. Isabelle Andrews has taken care of Amir for the past several weeks after witnessing the horrific explosion meant to take his life. She knew that to keep him safe she had to bypass the hospital leaving her father's cabin and the no longer needed medical equipment her only option. When he wakes and takes in the situation, she is relieved. However, when he demands that she marry him since she is carrying his royal heir, she refuses. Her son deserves to be raised in a loving home, and she will not marry out of some sense of duty. It soon becomes apparent that the cabin is no longer a safe refuge, and they take flight from a hail of bullets. She must trust Amir in knowing he will keep them safe. Will she survive all this madness? Will her son wait to be born? Is love too much to ask for?
Dana Marton gives her readers a quick romantic fix laced with intrigue and I was fortunate enough to receive a copy from the author for review. She writes amazing action packed romantic thrills while delivering strong, stubborn characters and a fast paced story. Amir and Isabelle shared one weekend of passion which had life altering consequences, and now that they are back in each other's lives they must cope with the circumstances. They must come to terms with the unexpected turn of events, run for their lives, and maybe fall in love in the process. THE BLACK SHEEP SHEIK takes us on an intense chase where we are never certain who can be trusted and everyone is at risk. I quickly devoured this exciting read. I enjoyed the banter between hero and heroine, relished the adventure, and delighted in the outcome. Ms. Marton keeps her readers entertained and I gladly look forward to her next tale.

Hard to Put Down, September 13, 2011
This review is from: The Black Sheep Sheik (Harlequin Intrigue Series) (Mass Market Paperback)
This is a fast paced always on the go story that keeps you wondering how on earth are the hero and heroine going to survive. Every time they think they have escaped the bad guys the bad guys show up again. And the heroine is nine months pregnant with the hero's baby. One has to wonder how she manages to survive all the things she goes through
Sheik Amir Khalid of Jamala known as the Black Sheep Sheik had just taken over the ruling of Jamala and doesn't need any more problems but when he and his friends ~ sheiks as well ~ arrive in the US for a summit meeting someone tries to kill Khalid by blowing up his limousine. He has been in a coma for a month when suddenly he wakes up and finds himself in a cabin with medical equipment attached to him. At first he thinks he has been kidnapped and is anxious to get away.
Dr. Isabelle Andrews had been intimate with Khalid nine months previous and was just about ready to deliver her baby. She had been on the scene when the limousine exploded and was able to get Khalid out of the car and had taken him to her father's fishing cabin and nursed him back to health. Now they are going on the run because his enemies have found him and are determined to kill him and Isabelle. Quite a chase ensues and they are captured then get free and are captured again until finally they get help from the other sheiks who are his friends and manage to defeat the bad guys just in time for Isabelle to have her baby.

Great Book, September 16, 2011
Once again Dana Marton has written a great novel. Her Black Sheep Sheik is full of action and romance and the pregnancy twist was great. I am going to go back and look for the other books in this series. I completely identified with Isabelle and Amirs' great love affair. Thanks Dana
