While I do like her written I'm just not enjoying it like I use to .With that said I don't think she's the author for me any more

Interesting story. I took a chance and I'm glad I did. I love a HEA. In fact, if I know that there is no HEA, I won't buy it. Thankfully this one had the required HEA. Yeah !!!!

Anastasia sister has signed her up for “Recover Love Rehab”. It's on a man-made island in the Middle East. So that Anastasia can imagine kicking her ex's backside.

An enjoyable book by Leslie North, although it took me some time to get into the story; the first couple of chapters seemed choppy and didn't have a seamless flow. Thankfully that doesn't last too long and the story really begins to pick up. Love the chemistry between Anastasia and Rehaj.

Just the right mix of romance and chemistry that kept me glued to the pages. I found myself staying up way into the night because I just could not put this book down. Loved it.

After being replaced by a much younger model, Anastasia embarks on a vacation her sister arranged. Alone in paradise is not all it is cracked up to be especially since she has no access to any electronic devices. Meeting Rehaj was something that definitely made her vacation better since they are both stuck in a couple’s paradise. Stuck with one another they find they both have much more in common than they initially thought. Great continuation of the series!

Sheikh Rehaj bin Haik Al Nazari went to Amour Island and and he knew he made the three mistakes of his life. . The second mistake was letting his troublesome sisters talking him into going there. A place meant for lovers definitely not him. Still Rehaj had promised his sisters he would give the place a chance and he was a man of his word, a get it done kind of man. Rejah dealt with much of the tedious paperwork from the ground up required. This island had a fourteen day long “Love Rehab” session. On this island all technology was banned. Rehaj was private in his professional life but even more so in his personal life. The longest Rehaj had been in a relationship since he was seventeen was six months. Before him was a blonde woman begging to be allowed to use her cell phone one last time but she was denied by the staff. Then he seen the woman run out sobbing . He followed her as he could never stand seeing a damsel in distress. Anastacia/Ani knew she was being dramatic . But she felt like her whole world was leaving on a jet plane and she had missed the plane. Ani felt too exposed, to vulnerable, too on edge to convey the slick professional easy breezy confidence that was expected from the daughter of such a prominent family and ex girlfriend of a Titan -Marcus- of the business world. Ani had wanted to call her sister Gwen who could usually calm Ani down. Eight months ago Ani boyfriend had traded her in for a younger woman. Then a few days ago Marcus’s new marriage had v=been splashed across the tabloids and his new wife was barely legal and a budding supermodel. He had been ten years older than Ani. Ani had met Marcus when she was seventeen. They had meant working together at a mission’s clinic in Africa for her family’s charity. She had been a senior in HS and hung on to Marcus’s every word. Then two years later they met again. Then two years later they met again when Ani was in college and Marcus was there to speak to the MBA graduates. Now he treated Ani as an adult and wined and dined her and three weeks later Marcus was her first and only lover. Nine years they were together. Ani had turned a blind eye to his philandering and lies. Rajah asked Ani what her name was and Ani told him and asked what his was. Then Rahaj she would show Rahaj she would show him where his villa was as she had been on the island for two hours so she knew her way then it turns out she is next store to Rahaj. Ari liked helping people it always ,made her feel better. She had practically grown up helping her mother. Ari came to the island to forget - forget her past with her mother and the horrific break up with Marcus.Ani was to forget all jer problems and just concentrate on herself for once. Rahaj knew loss with the loss of his father and at seventeen when he loved Ayesha and planned his future with her then she was gone-dead and he felt it was his fault and never forgot that. Ari was to be Rahaj partner as they were the only single people left on the island although at dinner one evening the staff came to ask if they wanted to try other partners that were in a more open relationship they both said no and Ani was getting upset so Rahaj stood and kissed and then deepened the kiss when she responded to him. Ani wasn’t really Rehaj type of woman was one who knew the score and didn’t mind disappearing at the first whiff of media coverage. Ani wasn’t looking for a relationship and neither was Rahaj. Rahaj went out on his balcony and the waves of the ocean soothed him. For the first time he wasn’t thinking about his next cabinet meeting or his big proposal - to lead his brothers cabinet advisors or the new rules and stimpy motions that his brother’s cabinet should be releasing at any time. Ani and Rahaj have dinner on the beach and got a little drunk- Rahaj never drank and Ani rarely did but the desert had a lot of alcohol in it and it was delicious. Ani and Rahaj became lovers that night.
I loved this book. Leslie North has done it again with another excellent book involving sheikhs I loved Rahaj and Ani together they so needed each other and didn’t know it at first. I also loved the way they interacted with each other. I loved that Ani helpede Rahaj relax and with his speeches. I loved the pace and plot. I loved how Rajah was able to help ANi with her confidence. It was a easy fun romantic read. I advise you to read the other books in this series it just makes everything click. I happily could find nothing to criticize in this book as usual when reading one of Leslie North’s novels. I loved the characters and the ins and outs of this book and I highly recommend.

Received this book as an ARC from NetGalley and the publishers in exchange for and honest rewiev.

I'm not sure if this was my first book by Leslie North. The sheikh novels are familiars to me, but not sure if this author is one of author which books I have read before that. Characters were ok and there wasn't anything which can make this different than many other sheikh book. Sad but also true. And sometimes I need to ask myself, that are you kinding me, when the plot makes 180* turns even in the same pages. Characters were quite normal, woman which ex were cheating bastard and man with sad memories. So it wasn't anything new, I think, but still it was ok to read and I enjoyed with this book. It doesn't takes so many hours to read, so it was okay to me.

There is nothing like a Leslie North Sheikh novel. I loved the characters in this book. Rehaj was a tortured hero after he lost his school sweetheart as a teenager. Ani's fiancee dumped her for another woman. They click and their island retreat becomes a passionate escape. I liked how Rehaj and Ani complete and compliment each other. This was a passionate romance!

I received a complimentary ARC from NetGalley and the publisher. Thank you!

Loved reading the second book in The Meddlesome Sisters series. Anatasia's sister sends her to an island in the Middle East to recover from her ex-fiance. Read the highlyrecommended love story of Sheikh ReHaj and Anatasia. I reviewed a copy of the book.

Anastasia knows she’s been wallowing, but what else can she do when her ex-fiancé slips her three-carat diamond ring onto another woman’s finger? Her sister, however, has had enough of the pity party, and shoves a suitcase in Anastasia’s hand instead. She’s signed Anastasia up for “Recover Love Rehab” on one of those man-made islands in the Middle East. It’s the height of luxury and Anastasia’s last chance to kick her ex to the curb. So, try as she might, the sight of the frothy pink sundress and the promise of relaxation does her in. When I started reading I couldn't put it down.Leslie North is magnifysent writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book.

What are the odds of two people, thrown into a scenario, in this case a romance getaway. One's a Sheikh and the other, a bold woman who's been put down so many times in the past-and meeting this Sheikh ignites a fire she thought she never had.
I got this off NetGalley and I was to read it and give an honest review- and here's my final take: if you love a good romance, then this will heat things up a bit for you and definitely serve you some love.

I enjoyed this second book of the, Sheikh's Meddling Sisters series. I just wish there were more meddling being done, could add a humorous side to the books.
