Summary: A sensual and exotic novel!
Review: SHEIK follows the same plot as many romances, but it's still a fun read. The hero, Sheik Jamal, is arrogant and sexist, of course, and is stunned by the idea of women as men's equals when the beautiful Berber heroine, Zara, suggests it to him.

One of the things I liked was that Jamal is also a pirate. Of course, most of the novel takes place on land, so don't expect pirating adventures here.

Jamal is the typical sexist hero, touching and groping his concubines and Zara as he pleases. Being a modern woman, I found this rather annoying, but romance novels often star a hero who can molest women and arouse them at the same time. No difference here--Zara doesn't want to be turned on by the sheik, but of course, she is.

Zara is the daughter of the leader of the Berbers and is strong and independent. She's taken to the short-tempered Sultan after being captured by Jamal and his men, but Jamal finds he doesn't want the Sultan to have her, so he comes up with a plan to keep her with him. Jamal's three concubines aren't pleased, especially when he begins to neglect them in favor of Zara.

The two grow more fond of one another, and as their love grows, so does the danger. The Sultan has wanted Zara's father Youssef's head for a long time, and would just as easily kill Zara. Jamal, too, incurs the Sultan's wrath, and they must find a way to save themselves. Although predictable, this is a fun, erotic novel.

Summary: I loved the book
Review: Sheik was my first Connie Mason book that I read. After that one I was hooked to her books. And her books keep getting better and better

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Oh, please!
Review: The only reason I read this was because I was deathly bored and there was nothing else available. One of the many reasons I no longer read romance--how many times can the harem storyline be used! I don't expect much from romance, but women who read and like this should wonder why they get little to no respect. This book is housewife porn, plain and simple.
