About this listen

Following a recent merger, American executive assistant Marian is sent overseas to meet with her company’s new Arab business partner. But once Marian sees who she’ll be working with - the handsome Sheikh Omar Almasi - she’s instantly wary of his good looks and brooding demeanor. When circumstances force her to step into her boss’ shoes, Marian is more than ready to prove she should be taken seriously...even if it means working side by side with the surly, sexy sheikh.

Two years after losing his wife to cancer, Omar is more driven than ever in his family’s oil business. He opposed the merger with the US tech firm, and now that it’s done, he refuses to compromise himself for corporate Americans. But Omar is caught off guard when he meets beautiful, business-savvy Marian. The woman drives him wild with her stubborn determination and her distracting allure. He’s never had to work so closely with someone so...feminine, and the more time they spend together, the more he has to fight his impulses.

Soon their attraction is undeniable, but with the wound of his wife’s death still not healed, Omar may never be ready to move on...unless Marian can show him how to love again.

Fantasy romance

I've been reading a lot of Leslie North's books recently and I've started to wonder just how many sheikh families she can come up with. They are a lot of fun though, which explains why I've read so many of them, this book is no exception.

Marian is a great lead character, she's strong and confident and is not going to let anyone walk over her. Plus she's smart and driven, I can see how a character like her would be a good match for a sheikh.

The romance is quite fast and there's a lot of chemistry between Marian and Omar, mixing business and pleasure has never boon so... well... pleasurable.

The narration was well done again, good character voices, particularly the accents and the delivery was engaging.

I received a free copy of this book from the author and/or narrator and/or publisher and I voluntarily wrote this honest review.

Another hot as Sheikh listen!

I absolutely cannot get enough of the Almasi Sheikhs! Super sweet story and a quick listen but do not let that deter you!! With Ms. North's characters and story and Mr. Van Ness's narration you cannot go wrong! Craig Van Ness brings life and emotion to these characters....every. single. one. And every. single. time. There's never any confusion as to who is whom and who feels what because the performance is solid! Give this book a try, I don't think you will regret it! I know I was hooked from the beginning of Book 1.*

*Note: You do not have to read/hear Book 1 to know what is going on in Book 2.

Good Story

I enjoyed the back and forth between Omar and Marion. Kelly was a complete jerk and I also didn't like how in a "forward" thinking country women are still thought down on so much. I'm also not really a fan of being held back by the dead wife, but its understandable (though it contradicts completely with how most men in this country see women). Aside from those things it was still a great story. I am not a fan of Craig's voice at all. At times his voice sounds like a bad Disney imitation of an Indian voice and there are many ways that he pronounces things that bother me. I'm just not a fan of him as a narrator.

Wonderful second book

Now that the merger between Arab and an American business is complete Marian heads to Arab with her boss to meet with Sheikh Omar. The three of them are hoping to sign a big contract, bringing more revenue to their joint company.
When Marian's boss is fired for offending a room full of Arab business men she is thrilled to step in and prove to everyone she can get the job done and done right.
Can Marian free Sheikh Omar's heart. She had hoped to. But he didn't try to stop her from going home. Will Sheikh Omar realize what he let go, or will he close his heart again and live his life through his dead wife's letters?

Craig Can Ness is quickly becoming one of my favorite narrators. His work is very good and you can tell he enjoys narrating.

I received this audible free of cost and am happy to give my honest unbiased review.

Almasi Sheikhs Book 2

I have come to enjoy Leslie books and specially love to learn about the unique locations her characters are set in! This one is a great addition to the Almasi Sheikhs series. Omar is such a great character and I can’t help but fall for him. He is such a good man and has not gotten over the loss of his wife. Mariam is outgoing and bold. They do seem to balance each other out.

Narration was outstanding and brought the story to life.

Leslie North is an outstanding writer and I have enjoyed several of her books. Her books are sure to warm your heart and put a smile on your face.

I’m looking forward to the third book in this outstanding series.

Good story!

This is the second book in the Almasi Seikhs Series. This is a good second chance love story with a HEA ending, of course! I like the story of Omar and Marian. I'm looking forward for the next book in this Series. The narration was great and easy to listen.

Competing with a Ghost

Mariam and Omar are featured in this second chance at love book. Omar has much to overcome, and that includes his first wife's memory. Mariam is a strong and independent woman who works for the same company that was featured in Almasi Sheiks, book 1. Besides being a female in a male dominated field and culture, she is determined. I loved how she gave as good as she got in this story. Craig Van Ness did an excellent performance with his various characters and gave them distinguishable voices. Leslie North once again proved that she is a wonderful writer. I love how her books include exotic locations and have endearing characters, and how I feel good listening to them. I requested this review copy audiobook and have voluntarily written this review. I cannot wait for the next brother to have his story told.

YesYes to Omar

A great addition to the series, Omar and Marian story is a bit more emotional than the previous story. Loosing his wife, Omar is so closed off from love, I didn't think Marian had a chance. But they do get their HEA, loved the scene at the end in the restaurant with the butterflies, so romantic.
Love Mr. Van Ness' voice and how he can modulate it to fit the characters and portray their emotions, especially Omar is my fave.

Great Short Story

I received this audiobook free for an honest review. As in the other Leslie North books, this one takes place in the Middle East. The relationship between Marian and Omar was quick. In this book Marian shows her intelligence and pulls off the a big deal as an assistant. Most impressive as she uses her resources and her skills. The narrator did a pretty good job with the Middle East accent.
