She's the right bride-to-be, at the worst possible time. Plunged into a fake engagement, can they find true love?
After a catastrophic media mix-up, regular Houstonian Willow Hart is propelled into extraordinary circumstances. Thrust into the limelight as the “fiancée” of a smoking hot sheikh, she soon finds herself a pawn in a royal game of marriage!
Flashy playboy Sheikh Ibrahim needs a bride-to-be to placate his meddling mother. He thinks he has it all worked out until suddenly, news gets out that he’s marrying a girl he’s never met! Working to set up his fake marriage ASAP, he finds out her price, and makes her an offer she can’t refuse…
With everything planned out to a tee, Ibrahim and Willow are ready to pull of the hoax of a life time, but there’s one thing no one planned for: that the gorgeous sheikh and his fake fiancée would fall in love for real. Separated by culture, wealth and status—not to mention one indecent proposal—can they pull together, and walk away as real husband and wife?
This is a Sheikh romance novel from best-selling author Holly Rayner. It contains a guaranteed HEA, and a tale of romance that will capture your heart.
Since I don't normally write reviews unless I have something specific to say, here's the break down of how I rate my books...
1 star... This book was bad, so bad I may have given up and skipped to the end. I will avoid this author like the plague in the future.
2 stars... This book was not very good, and I won't be reading any more from the author.
3 stars... This book was ok, but I won't go out of my way to read more, But if I find another book by the author for under a dollar I'd pick it up.
4 stars... I really enjoyed this book and will definitely be on the look out to pick up more from the series/author.
5 stars... I loved this book! It has earned a permanent home in my collection and I'll be picking up the rest of the series and other books from the author ASAP.
Willow and Ibrahim cross paths when her photo and his fake fiancé’s photo accidentally get switched in two news articles. This puts Ibrahim in a bind as he was having a fake engagement to assuage his mother’s desire to have him settle down. He very much likes his playboy rep and has no intentions of really complying with his mother’s wishes. So he resolves to talk Willow into his plans. Then he meets her, hot and sweaty after a 26 mile marathon to raise money for her charity, and she leaves an indelible impression. Willow agrees to his offer of a million dollars for her charity in exchange for her help. As they proceed, she begins to see another side of Ibrahim, one that she finds irresistible. What happens when this fake engagement stirs some very real feelings? A fun read!
You have to laugh and “Mr. Playboy's” attitude. He seems to think he can have his cake and eat it too. Ibrahim has this I am God complex were he thinks he is so much better than everyone else. But, it isn’t in a way that you hate him instantly. He is an alpha male that still knows how to caring, kind, loving and giving while still being protective. Willow is you sweet and loving kind of woman that you instantly love because she is so selfless. She thinks more of other people than she does herself. The chemistry between the two are amazing. This is extremely well written and the flow of the story is fantastic. This is definitely worth reading and it doesn’t disappoint. I voluntarily review an advanced reader copy of this book.
This story has a bit of everything. I like that. It is a romance love story and I liked it very much. A story about finding yourself. Can you change the player and get the man you love? Emotional and loving story.
Well written story with a nice storyline and plot. I like that the characters and how they develop.A passionate and emotional read with twists.
It is written in dual POV which gives the reader much more of the thoughts and feelings of the main characters. There is passion, hot scenes and lots of chemistry in this amazing story.
I received a copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.
Willow’s article about fundraising for her late brother’s Jane’s Syndrome disease had been mistakenly mix-up with Ibrahim’s sham fiancee. Ibrahim sought Willow and offered her 1 million in exchange for her to be his fake fiancee. They flew to his country, Rebai and met his mother. Ibrahim knew his mother was planning for their wedding. He just wanted it to be done and continue his playboy activities afterward. But both of them fell in love with each other. Eva told the reporters about her sham relationship with Ibrahim and his mother read the article. His mother was devastated but glad when they told her that they had actually fell in love.

This was the third and last book in the Sheikh's Bride series and features Sheikh Ibrahim and Willow. Willow is a call center employee in Houston and from humble beginnings. Sheikh needs a fake fiance to keep his meddling mother at bay. He offers Willow a million dollars for her charity if she will pose as his fake fiance/bride. It's a clean romance that was written from a dual POV. Neither counted on the chemistry that exploded between them or falling in love. I read an advance reader copy and voluntarily chose to write a review
Another Harlequin kind of book with the usual happy ending at the end. He wanted to make his mother happy but he didn’t really want to get married because he didn’t want to in his playboy lifestyle so we came up with the plan of finding a fake bride and taking her home to meet his mother. He did explain to her that it was going to be a real marriage it when they got back home she would be dumped and he would continue his lifestyle as a happy playboy. But in between then he found out that he really had feelings for her of course.
While I enjoyed the story, I wanted more. More relationship building of the characters. It was insta-love in a second. While there is nothing wrong with "insta-love" this one happened too fast. The plot was good and it flowed smoothly throughout. I just couldn't relate to the characters as there wasn't much "getting to know you" type of relationship.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book....
INCREDIBLE!!! A wonderfully sweet and captivating tale with twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat. Secrets unfold, lies told, bitter enemies and thanks so much for really devoted friends. You'll cry right along with the main characters and cheer them up. You'll fall in love and watch as the love grows stronger with the bonding of their babies that aren't here yet. Holly did an admirable job bringing the read to life.
A lovely romance book about a sheik (Ibrahim)who needs a bride by the time he is 30. So he finds himself a fake fiance (Willow) and she pretends to be his fiance and goes to his country to meet his mother.
They fall in love and decide to be together. I love it how they love each other so much and how nice the mother is to her.
"I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book."
What a beautiful romantic story it flowed just right well written and fun loved the characters and storyline great chemistry looking forward to reading more of this authors books I voluntarily reviewed an advance copy of this book.
Fake marriage, fake bride, real love. The characters in this book are quite likable and their story, though not dramatic or original is sweet. Dual POV is always a plus for me. 3.5 stars! I received this book for a voluntary, completely honest and non incentivized review.
Holly Rayner did a fantastic job with this fun story. Picture a Common Female and a Sheikh thrown together after a mix up in the paper. I really enjoyed reading this from the beginning to the end. I received this ARC for an honest review.
Sheikh’s ASAP Bride by Holly Rayner This was a nice read. "I received an advanced copy of this manuscript and am voluntarily leaving an honest review."
A very tasteful, clean and romantic story. Can a woman change a playboy's ways? This book is well written, has good characters and the storyline is enjoyable.
Sweet love story of taking mistaken identity and turning it to your advantage. Two people in need of something from each other and in the end finding real love.
This book was very interesting, when kathy lost her father and the will required her to have a baby or loose the money and house she started searching and when tahar found out in a unique way he offered and of course it was suppose to be business like but life changes and you learn to adapt or just go where your heart tells you to go.
