Editorial Reviews

Product Description

Billionaire Akeem Abdul's arrival at the McKade ranch went from business to personal when he learned Taylor McKade's little boy had disappeared. Taylor had only become more beautiful over the years, and Akeem couldn't stand seeing the pain on her face. As they followed the kidnappers' orders and trekked through the Texas heat, Akeem admired the strength it took for Taylor not to fall apart. But he was there when she did--and vowed to bring her son home. Still, all the money in the world couldn't eliminate his secret fears: that if they didn't find her son, this woman he'd finally found again could be lost to him forever....

More About the Author

DANA MARTON writes fast-paced action-adventure romances that take her readers all over the globe. She is a RITA AWARD finalist and the winner of the Daphne du Maurier Award of Excellence. She loves writing stories of intrigue, filled with dangerous plots that try her tough-as-nails heroes and the special women they fall in love with. Her books have been published in seven languages in eleven countries around the world.

--Okay, the above version is the glamour version for press releases. The truth is that my path to publication was nothing but unglamorous. I wrote for 13 years and completed 4 books (as well as having others in various stages of completion) before I finally received a call from a Harlequin editor. I was beginning to wonder if I was being tenacious or just too dense to know when to quit.

But it all worked out at the end! I love, love, love writing and would spend all day in front of the computer if I could just break my family of the habit of wanting to eat and wear clean clothes. What's up with that? But I must get up from the desk now and then, if only because my Internet connection goes down or my ancient PC overheats. Then I do enjoy cooking, knitting, hunting for treasures at the flea market, our Beagle, Peanut the Destroyer, and gardening.

I'd love it if you picked up one of my books and emailed me to tell me what you thought of it. I've been known to name characters after readers. Just ask Princess Judi.

A Sheik in Texas?? is a very diffrent setting to her other Sheik books had wondering before I read this book if Ms Marton had had bitten of more then she had bargained for but I have learnt never to dobut a brilliant writer an Ms Marton is just that! I just love how off the bat you think you know how much Akeem cares for Taylor but its not till the last page you see how deep his love is!

Akeem the "Texas Sheik" could have it all land Palaces and A whole lot of money but he wanted to earn his own way in the world and today was a very wealthy man! When he gets to his best friends ranch he runs into Taylor this sister of his best friend and the only woman Akeem has ever loved but ot of honnor never made a move on. When he finds out her son is missing he will do what ever it takes to bring her son back and to make Taylor his at last!

5.0 out of 5 stars tantalizing suspense, March 2, 2009

This review is from: Desert Ice Daddy (Harlequin Intrigue) (Mass Market Paperback)

"For over a decade, Akeem Abdul, dubbed the Texas Sheik, has been in love with his best friend's little sister. In that time, he and his friends have built empires, and Taylor McKade has married and divorced an abusive drunkard. When her son is kidnapped, Akeem and Taylor race across the western desert, outrunning kidnappers, horse thieves and their own passions as they try to save him. After her marriage, Taylor has trouble trusting any man but, time and again, Akeem has proven he will do anything to save her child.

Marton has a great hand at family espionage and tantalizing suspense. She's at the top of her game here." --RomanticTimes Bookreview
