Hearts of Gold #1
A Sheik for Rose
Rose overheard her boss, the only reason they chose her to represent Royston Oil was because Sheik Rashid had a thing for blonde busty women. Instead of getting angry at their obvious stereotyping she decided to show them a thing or two. She would get the Sheik's signature on the oil processing rights by using nothing more than her skills and intelligence. It was time she shook up the “Old Boy’s Club.”
What Rose hadn’t planned on was the infuriating rudeness of Sheik Rashid. But, she had a plan. He'd canceled on her for the last time. Little did Rose know, but her plan would lead to a night of unrivaled sensuality and pleasure at the hands of one annoying Sheik.

This one is hard to rate. From the sea of 4 and 5 star reviews, you'd think it was exceptional, but really it's just OK. I mean, if you like these kinds of books, it was really quite a fluffy and entertaining read. But there was so much that was cliche and OTT ridiculous that I have to give it 2 stars. I'll put most of my review in a spoiler tag.
I could go on, but I won't. I just felt the lack of honest reviews and the need to give a more honest response. Like I said above, I actually enjoyed myself while reading this, in between rolling my eyes. For a free book, it was worth the fun but I wouldn't pay much for it.
I would say this is *mostly* safe. There is no cheating, but there is ample angst over OW and some OW drama for those who hate that kind of thing.

Humm
Nice quick read and very easy to follow.
~spoils~
Yes, the first encounter between the H&h is quite literally all wrong in the worst possible way ever. Not here to encourage any of that rape couture. Maybe the author wasn’t trying to overlook that bit. But you could easily compared the h’s experience to someone who was drug up; fuzzy like dream state yet still some what coherent. Even though the author wrote out that the h enjoyed it... you can’t ignore the most important part was that she was asleep when the H had sex with her.

This one’s ok if you can overlook a redonkulous premise… it’s pretty out there even for soapy-smut. (the fact her name is Rose Gold should have clued me in) In a nutshell, Sheik Rashad rules a country that tradition forbids him to date; instead he has a harem to slack his carnal needs that is all facilitated by his staff. After being blown off for a week, Rose decides the best way to give Rashad her sales pitch is to sneak into his bedroom and wait for him. Unfortunately, Rose has a Goldilocks moment and falls asleep; meanwhile Rashad returns and assumes Rose is his treat for the night. To further complicate matters, Rose has a weird sleep condition that allows her to sleep through ANYTHING… like losing her virginity. She can also sleep with her eyes open, talk/praise/beg, and have multiple orgasms all while staying asleep. The next morning, she wakes up naked, and is mortified that she’s had sleep sex so she flees. If you can handle that without your eyes rolling out of your head…you might enjoy it.
Bottom Line- It wasn’t awful, but not awesome either. It’s written well, but it’s pretty much fluff. There’re no OW/OM/evil family members; it’s all pretty drama free. It’s fuzzy on details during their separation. We get differing hints… first he sends for two of his harem when he learns she’s gone; later we’re told he’s grumpy cuz he’s sexually frustrated and is “turning away” any woman sent to him. For me, I’m rounding up because I finished without skimming, but I found it low suds.

I finished this with a fair bit of skimming after halfway. Curiosity rather than enjoyment spurred me on. The idea of a one night stand that she was barely coherent for and the subsequent romance was a little too OTT for me. Details of the story went begging. The wedding scene ended with her walking down the aisle! I had to go back and check I hadn’t glazed over and missed it.
While this book wasn’t for me, I guess this is one for readers who are looking for a quick read involving an OTT romance will enjoy.

This is my first book by the author, it was free on my Google books. It was a cute, fast paced romance.
Rose is a beautiful and ambitious worker, unfortunately she works for chauvinistic men. So, she is determined to make her trip to another country where a handsome Sheik Rashid is ruler.
While waiting to meet with the Sheik, she notices he has a large appetite for the ladies. She becomes fed up waiting to see him, that she foolishly takes matters into her own hands. What happens next will be a surprise for the Sheik and Rose!!
I like the flow of the story line, and the attention to details. I love her sisters, and the ending was a happy one!

The idea of the story I liked. It’s about what I expected, so if you ignore some of the mixed messages it’s not a bad read. I feel like Rose one minute is all ‘I am woman hear me roar’ into feminism and equal rights, but the next minute with Rashid she’s like ‘oh you explained your controlling ways that’s fine cause I insta-love you’. It wasn’t like that all the time but there were a few times I kinda scratched my head. I’ve read worse and I’ve read better.

Sweet and passionate
This was a sweet and lovely romance with plenty of steam. I enjoyed the cultural issues addressed as plot and the baby was a sweet bonus.

Yak... dnf.
Ok, I know this is an exaggeration of the intent of the story and not what the author was probably aiming for, but this was all I could see.
The H and his country GROOM ‘girls from a young age’ <—- direct quote, in the art of how to please men. They are effectively raising them as obedient - geez, this story has me so irked I really want to write something REALLY offensive here, but it would still describe the mentality. So, they raise obedient housekeepers, mothers and sex toys. They see nothing wrong with aligning every part of the women’s lives to please the man, from how their bodies are prepped to what they eat to ensure his approval.
Thankfully, the h actually does call him out for the appalling way his country and he treat their sex toys... but she still melts and jumps on his cock at EVERY opportunity!
I understand the plot and all and have read others similar that I’ve liked and I think have managed to pull off the inequality and gender bias’s well enough to not have them jumping out at me like fire throwing gorillas, but this one really really misses the mark for me. I got half way, and she’s just been plucked, basted, stuffed and dressed like his preferred Christmas ham, and she’s pissed and ready to have it out with him! Well fine-a-fuck-a-ly!!! She lasts what, 10mins of telling him that this is a huge problem that he as Sheik is perpetuating by saying ‘girl’s can pursue higher education, but we aren’t going to let them do anything but follow orders to clean, fuck or breed... so yes, I’m mildly appeased that she’s thrown the obvious in his face that generations of sexism has kept him blinded too. And he’s throwing around ‘you will marry me’ and she’s thinking ‘I can’t be one of many’ and then they are fucking again! Really!
It’s not that this book is overwhelmed with sex, it’s that she actually has so many problems with the entire situation and his part in it, but she can’t keep her legs closed in his presence, at all. Luckily I don’t need to point out she can’t keep her panties on... cause she’s not given any, but is wrapped in such a way that one tug (from anyone) would leave her naked. And she’s conveniently brushed off the fact that he had her drugged, kidnapped and shipped to his country against her will, ‘cause whatever, no need to be pissed about that, or have any worry about what kind of drugs were used and if they’d affected that baby. She’ll just smile and get primped and preened between jumping on his cock while she’s trying to have a serious conversation with him.
And yes, I understand that the author is trying to show what a huge (I’m guessing soulmate) pull they have to each other, but there is a time to grit your teeth and keep your uglies from bumping for an hour or two.
So yep, this book really managed to piss me off. There was no balance to the I want you and this is our reality. There wasn’t really any sides to him either for all that the author appeared to give him depth, he was just a spoiled cock.

Okay, before I explain why I gave this book two stars, I want to state that I have been struggling to read and finish many of the amazing books I have. I don’t know why. But I have. And it should be noted, for whatever reason, I finished this book. It probably says more about me then this book but still. It’s worth noting.
With that being said...Wow. This book is highly problematic. This was a free book about a sheik and since that is one of my catnips, I thought maybe it would hit the spot.
It hit a spot. Just not the one I was expecting.
There are several points where I should have DNF’d.
The heroine’s first sexual experience (because of course, she is a virgin) happens while she is asleep. Yes. You heard me right. She is asleep. But the hero thinks that she is awake because she sleeps with her eyes open. I am not making this up. But then the writer keeps trying to make it better throughout the book by having the heroine admit she knew all along what was happening. It’s such a thin explanation, it does nothing to fix the consent issue. I’m sorry.
But here’s the thing, there is a scene later where she wakes up in the middle of the night (after they are married, so consent is no longer necessary?) and he is having sex with her again. I’m sorry but is this a kink, Rashid? Do you like sleeping with women while they are unconscious?
Now let’s discuss the American girl who is going to change the antiquated ideals of a Middle Eastern country.
I’m sorry but the issue of woman’s rights in the Middle East is a very delicate subject. And as a writer, if you choose to tackle certain social issues, there is a responsibility to handle with care and thoughtfulness.
I think it’s hard to set a romance in the Middle East without having the issue of gender inequality coming up. But this author handled it by simplifying it and making the solution that there just hasn’t been anyone to advocate for women in this country. But don’t worry, our heroine is here and she is on it. And just like that, she is building clinics and providing education to women.
Throughout the entire book, there was no blowback to anything. There was no outcry over their Sheik marrying a white American. There was a line that essentially says, the board was displeased but I’m sorry, I think they would be more than displeased. Even if it didn’t matter in the end because the sheik can do whatever he wants, I would think that this would still be a huge issue within his advisors.
And then, all the work she was doing for woman would not have gone over well. I am not saying that Middle Eastern countries aren’t making progress where woman’s right are concerned. They are. But there is still a lot of outrage surrounding it. Don’t get me wrong, the sheik makes multiple comments about how it’s not going to be easy for his people’s minds to be changed but it’s just words because there is absolutely no example of that happening anywhere in the book. Everything goes by without a hitch.
Well, except for the insurgents. Because you have to have insurgents in a Middle Eastern country, right? I felt like the author did absolutely no research and went based solely on preconceived notions about an incredibly nuanced culture.
On top of the above, I simply didn’t believe the romantic story arc. It was forced, rushed and completely unbelievable.
I will give credit where credit is due. The erotic writing was good. The scenes themselves were problematic but the writing was well done. I honestly wonder if this didn’t start as erotica but they decided to turn it into a romance. This is the reason I didn’t give it one star.
I honestly hope the author never reads this because I rarely rate a book I finish reading below a four. If I finished it, then I usually enjoyed it and that’s enough for me. But if the author does read this, I would tell her that the world of romance is changing and readers are expecting more from their authors. We expect that if you decide to have a polarizing subject in your book that you deal with it carefully. It’s demeaning to the real men and women who are fighting to be heard when you make it seem like all anyone needs is an someone to come in and simply fix the problem.

Rose was determined to make something of herself. After hearing her bosses' plan to use her looks for their benefit she was even more determined she would succeed. She just needed to get some documents signed for an oil deal. Simple right? The problem was, the Sheik wouldn't keep the appointments. So what's an industrious-minded go-getter to do? Sneak into his bedroom and wait for him. Only she falls asleep. The next morning she wakes up realizing the dream she had wasn't a dream! She is so embarrassed she forgets all about the signatures needed for the deal and jumps on the first plane back to the US. Of course, she loses her job, has to move in with her sister, and finds out she has a souvenir from her night with the Shiek.
The Sheik was so enamored with her night in his bed, he wants her again, but she cannot be found. After his security team locates her, she is kidnapped and brought back to the Shiek. After discovering she is pregnant, he decides they must marry. Rose isn't quite so certain she can adjust to the type of life women have in his country and once again her determination sets out to prove herself. Thankfully Rashid isn't so set in the old ways as his predecessors and is open to the changes Rose wants to make. So can they make a happily-ever-after?

>Book Review – A Sheik for Rose
>I am an independent reviewer. This book is the 1st in the Hearts of Gold series and ends in an HEA. Rose is sent to obtain oil rights from a sheik, but her sleep disorder ends with her accidentally sleeping with him and becoming pregnant. Rose’s backstory is one of freedom and love with her 2 triplet sisters and flower children parents. This story really emphasizes the difference in women’s rights due to culture and the change that needs to be made starting with how the men think.
>The Sheik is really in love with Rose, but he needs help realizing his harem will upset her. The lack of ob/gyn care is also tackled. I think this book is erotic and romantic, but ultimately the book will make one think.
> This book is appropriate for an adult audience. I am giving this book 5 stars.

The man gave me the ick🤢
To insta-lovely and a man who is a womaniser did not make this good. If the plot was better and he stoped thinking about the other women and that maybe it would have been good not no🤢
And the fml feel asleep in his bed when she hadn’t even met the guy was weird. Couldn’t she wait till she meet the dude instead of sneaking in to his private room??
She sleeps through when he had sex with her was also so weird and ick.
The guy should have seen she slept??? She had a business suit on!!?
The other females who he had slept with was also still in the castle when he decided to marry her!

A Sheik for Rose
She is one of three sisters. Born a triplet she has never been alone. He was born into royalty. He became a Sheik at thirteen. After his parents were killed. Two different ways of life. But when she sneaked into his room things go wrong. He seduced her and later she left. When he finds out that she was not placed there for his entertainment he has his people find her. The story is a fast read for me. I was entirely entertained by the characters and story line. Can't wait to get the next book in this series.

This is a great romance story. It has the perfect blend of sexiness, humor, drama and romance with its own unique tidbits. I really like Rose & her sisters, they are a united force of light, very supportive of one another and straight forward in a gentle way as well. The sheik is arrogant as expected, that's how he was brought up but I like that he is still a good listener. I just love this story, this was a random pick & I have never read anything else by this author but I am so glad I found this. It is now on my short list as one of my favorites.

Romance, humor, sensuality
It's fantasy. If you read it as what it's intended to be, you will definitely enjoy this book. He's a sheik whose parents were murdered when he was 13 and was taught from that early age to have absolutely no emotion. He's surrounded by people and women trained to pleasure him yet he's alone. Then she comes along and his life takes a 180. He obviously struggles with his feelings.
She's wanted to excel in a man's world and accidently ends up in his bed also giving her life a total 180.
Can her love be enough?

Great start for a new author for me....
Rashid and Rose's book is the first of three books, each one a complete story to itself. Triplet sisters, all 3 look alike but with different personalities. This was the first book I read by Lizabeth Scott and it was a great bedtime read that had me laughing in parts and also wanting to Chuck something at Sheik Rashid head in others. I am so looking forward to reading the other sisters's books.

Roses
This book starts off at warps speed and doesn't stop until the last period. I enjoyed reading Rose' s story. The Sheik is in love with Rose, but he is afraid of love due to things that happened in his past. Rose is a triplet and she and her sisters have the cutest names. I think I will purchase book 2 in this series.

On the fence
On the one hand she was a good main character except she did a few thing so infuriating so 1950’s stepford wife-ish that I was questioning what era this book was meant to be in. The sheik was typical but I’d rather read a book of the three sisters them together were the best parts of the story, plus her with the other moms to be

Beautifully written
This is my second time reading this and I just had to rectify my mistake of not leaving a review the first time around.
This book is rich in comedy, romance, women with backs of steel. It’s so sweet and beautiful I was sad for it to end. Thank you for this sweet book.

Fantastic romance with women’s causes thrown in
Admirable attention given to the women’s causes we take for granted in the USA. Touching love story that begins because Rose fell asleep in the Sheiks bed and she took home a souvenir of the fateful encounter. Follow her path to the ultimate happiness with the Sheik.

A good story
The best things in this story were Rose’s take charge personality, and the resulting character interactions. The sheik was a good man too, and Rose was just what he needed. Spicy hot with a Nice HEA.

A wonderful story which could almost be a true story. I love the story of Rose and Rashid, their story bought a lot of sadness and laughter for me. they are both from different countries, the story show how they cope and how they listen and understood, love and trusted one another.

Great love story
This book was a great read, seems pretty unlikely to happen in real life, but it was still nice to read about it, it was nice to be able to read about it, like a fantasy world, give it a read and I’m sure you’ll be pleased.

Romantic and Cultural
Rose and Rashid are from different countries, but their immediate attraction is sealed after one night of passion. Despite their cultural differences, they agree to try and make improvements for the women of his country.

Amazing Series
Falling in love with characters in a book? It happens all the time when you read any book written by Elizabeth Scott!!! This series is one of my favorite but be prepared to stay up late, keep Kleenex close and you may need a glass or two of wine!! Enjoy!!!
