5.0 out of 5 stars really really romantic !!, September 24, 2001

This review is from: I Married a Sheik (The Coltons) (Mass Market Paperback)

Sheik Ali El-Etra is the owner of this big and successful company and he meets Faith Martin, when the computers in his company goes haywire. Faith is passionate and real, she doesn't care about his title, power or money and that's a great difference from the women Ali hangs out with. So it's only normal that Ali is attracted to Faith and Faith is attracted to Ali because of his kindness, his generosity and his sexiness.

It all happened one night, when Ali's parents showed up in the restaurant, where they (Faith and Ali) were eating dinner, that Ali announced Faith and him were engaged, much to Faith's surprise. But Faith doesn't ruin Ali's scheme because she knows Ali is doing it out of the love for his parents. Now they're in a pretend engagement, with pretend love for each other but what if underneath all this fakeness, there's a chance for a real engagement and a chance for real love?

I loved how Sharon De Vita included other characters in this story that wasn't really relevant but relevant in the next book. It's like to hook readers up into reading the next book and I have to admit, it worked really well! I plan on reading the next book THE DOCTOR DELIVERS as soon as I could get my hands on it.

Also I loved Ali and Faith! They were so perfect for each other. If Ali has a character flaw, Faith would make up for it and vice versa. One of my favorite parts was when Ali's mom get mad at him and his mom shows that spark. It was really funny and I simply enjoyed this book !!!
