Married to a Prince #1
A Marriage of Convenience
From
With oil wells springing up like weeds and the Bedouins getting restless, what's a modern Nadiarian prince to do?
Before he can deal with domestic issues Prince Yousef A’del Sharif must deal with the arrival if his college sweetheart, Honor McPherson. Their passionate affair lasted through his year of graduate school at Harvard. But when it came time to return to the oil-rich nation, Honor wasn’t ready to follow. He took her reluctance for rejection and they parted ways.
One year later Honor hesitantly touches down in Nadiar to be with her ailing father, who works for the royal family. And she has reason to be nervous. Yousef left her with more than a broken heart. She has his son. Yousef is livid and wants revenge. But to insure his parental rights with the child, he must instead convince her to marry him by any means necessary.
But can he win over her heart when he played on her deepest fears to make her stay?

About the author
Kat Attalla
23 books31 followersaka Kathryn Taylor, Kathryn Attalla, Kathy Attalla
From a very young age, Kathryn showed an aptitude for telling stories. Of course her mother called her a pathological liar, but she prefers to think back on those days as an apprenticeship for her future craft. Like most authors, she didn't start out as a writer, but rather as a reader. Her passion for romance novels began in her late teens and left her with an itch to discover the world.
After living in places as culturally diverse as Athens, Greece and Cairo, Egypt (where she met and married her own romantic hero) they returned to the states and settled in the quiet town of Sterling Forest, New York. After the birth of her daughter, Kat's husband suggested she take up writing as a hobby to fill her days. The hobby became a love, and the love an obsession. (Sometimes her husband is sorry he ever made that suggestion.)
She learned how to write from the best--the authors who penned the books she spent countless hours reading. Although her writing allows her mind to soar in clouds, she has a daughter who keep her feet firmly planted on the ground. She signs her novels as Kathryn Taylor, Kathryn Attalla, Kathy Attalla and Kat Attalla.

This was a free book and since it looked good I downloaded it and started reading. It was actually pretty enjoyable and was a very short, fast read.
A romance about an American who meets a foreign Prince in college, finds out she is pregnant after they break up and he goes back overseas. She ends up back in his world due to a family illness and after he finds out about the baby she had...it all blows up from there. It is a little far fetched in parts and I'm not really sure how accurate the protocols would be in this "oil rich country" he is living in where women have as many rights as men do. Suspending all reality and going with the flow, it was a sweet little love story with a few interesting plot twists along the way but had a predictable HEA ending. Not a lot of graphic sex but enough romance and foreplay to keep it interesting =)
Worth taking the time to read (hey it's free right now, so why not?)
****4**** hot desert stars =)

This is the familiar story of foreign Prince meets American college student, romance ensues he goes home leaving her pregnant and of course it's a boy, it's always a boy, then there's the usual misunderstanding etc etc you know the drill. Why did I read it then, I'm asking myself the same thing one of the American reviews said it had a few twists so I thought I'd give it ago and to be honest it was an ok quick easy read but it could have been better, things were mentioned and touched upon but then nothing more was said or done, it could have had more depth and it has it's feet firmly in the land of fantasy but if you want a quick read which you don't have to think about then this is ok.

3 Star Rating for Being Good
This was an interesting but short and good novel. The whole concept for foreign marriage and different traditions was a nice mix. I could of done with less missed words in sentences and misspelled words. I usually don't complain about editing errors but there were enough that it started to get annoying.
