Sheik Issam was driven by the need to keep his family safe. Security was what he lived and breathed by. Meeting Mckenzie was definitely a whirlwind. The man who needed a wife and a woman who need to be saved. They would compliment one another and solve the problems his country faced. Great ending to the series.

I totally loved this book! The characters were wonderful and could easy connect with them. I love their interactions and storyline! I highly recommend this sexy, steamy romance! Happy reading! Totally recommend

This was my first read by Leslie North, and I liked it. I thought it was a decent read but it did not blow me away. I would like to try something else by this author at another time.

A big thank you to NetGalley and Relay Publishing for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. This is part of a series -3. It reads well as a stand alone. The part that he has to be married by the age of 30, to retain his royal place, just seems forced. This had an interesting meeting!! I loved that her crashed and that's how they met, it got crazy from there. Insta attraction, and her with a hidden agenda leads to drama! Overall an interesting read. I give it 3 stars.

Sheikh Issam doesn’t have time to find a bride. He’d rather a sign would appear to him, signaling the perfect woman and save him the trouble of finding her. However, he didn’t foresee the sign being.When I started reading I couldn't put it down.Leslie North is magnifysent and amazing writer.I cannot wait to read more of there books.Keep up the great work.You should definitely read this book.Can't wait for the next book.

Driving himself to the mosque had been Sheikh Issam second mistake. The first one was letting himself get sucked into this family drama. Issam was in charge of - in one way or another- hundreds of people and held responsibility of millions. Kyril -he was Issam oldest brother-had called and said he needed a favor. He needed Issam to go to the mosque and pick up Inan- Kyril’s oldest child who was five years old. There was a special folder on issams phone . the foldert had a collection of dossiers on potential wives. Issam had to be married by the time he was thirty which was very soon or he would lose his position in the royal family. He would choose his wife on cold, hard, facts. He wanted a wife who is suitable on paper, nothing more. He needed someone who could stay calm, who could stay the course. He didn’t have time to get into an emotional mess like his brothers. He didn’t want anything that looked like love. There was a woman Issam had noticed in her car than another car came barreling down on her car. She turned heading for the sidewalk, for Inan. She avoided hitting any kids but hit the mosque. The side column of the mosque was ready to fall Issam got the woman out of the car and into his arms and ran and as he went he grabbed Inan’s arm and dragged him back. The column fell. Mackenzie’s car was crushed by the column . She probably would have died. Than mackenzie realized who had saved her-sheikh issam - the man who she came here to meet. She was there to negotiate a deal. Than the imam from the mosque came out and told Issam there was an ancient law for damaging the mosque MacKenzie must be put to death. The Issam grabbed her by the elbow. MacKenzie was furious as she paced the holding cell. Mackenzie was an American citizen as well as a lawyer. Mackenzie had been scheduled for an afternoon meeting with Issam. The president- who was her brother -in-law - had sent her a shis representative- so she said but actually she had been forced to leave Al-Madeza. If issam didn’t stop MacKenzie’s sentence from being carried out he would be at war on three fronts: The U. S., Al-madeza, and Caldad. There was one way for Issam to save Mackenzie it was to marry her. He said it would be a political marriage. Mackenzie agreed to the marriage. Mackenzie told issa she threw herself into her work. She never fell below anyone’s standards because hers were so high. Issam thought MacKenzie was bottled lightning and wanted more of her. He kissed her and she hesitate and kissed him back. Issam wanted badly to see what mackenzie was like when she lost control. He wanted to make her lose control. But mackenzie had a power all her own. Issam thought this won’t be as he had imagined.
This was another great book by Ms. North. I loved it. I read it on one setting. I just didn’t want to put it down. Issam and MacKenzie were such strong and smart people. I loved them together. I understood why but didn’t appreciate how Issam didn’t listen to MacKenzie but when it was crucial he did. I know it wasn’t the way of his culture but…. In the end her way with help from the NGO was the right way. I loved the plot and pace of this book. I loved how Issam’s family accepted MacKenzie right from the start even knowing why he had planned to marry her. I loved the characters and the ins and outs of this book and I highly recommend it.

This is a voluntary review of an advanced copy.

I think this is my favorite of the three books in this series. Issam decides to marry Mackenzie to save her from a death penalty and to meet the conditions of his marrying before he turns 30.

You can tell that things are not going to go well when Mackenzie tries so hard to help Issam with the border dispute and he keeps pushing her to focus on the wedding.

It was fun to see bits of Kyril and Hannah and at the wedding Rami and Catelyn from the previous books. I do hope that their sister, Adira, will get a chance for love in her own book! Good thing that she was able to help Issam see that he needed Mackenzie and to quit focusing on the wrong things! Great HEA!

Book three of Leslie North’s Sheikhs of Al-Dashalid series, is finished off perfectly with The Sheikh's Fierce Fiancee. Issam and Mackenzie are a dynamic couple, who exhibit strength and commitment while pursuing their perspective causes. But sometimes you need to take a step back, re-evaluate your beliefs, and allow others to share the load.

This is another example of a well-rounded story by Ms North with charismatic characters, a strong foundation and passion that ignites a fire so hot it scorches the pages. Once again I thank the author for providing readers with a fast-paced, easy to read, thoroughly enjoyable tale. I wait with bated breath for the next exciting adventure.

Issam and Mackenzie work out so well together. It's too bad that he does not listen to her more when it comes to the safety and political issues that they both have in common. This was a great book.

Love at first sight. Or more accurately, lust.

Issam offers to marry Mackenzie, despite meeting her once, to save her from a death sentence. He seems to be all about the facts in the first chapter and it makes me wander... what happened? The main problem in the story could have been solved if Issam took the time and researched it.

Besides that, it was a quick read and ended in a HEA, like most romance novels. I wish there was more depth to the characters and the storyline was eh. Nothing to read twice, but a decent read

Another wonderful romantic trek through the desert by Leslie North.
The author has once again written a tale of love that grabs you right from the start and maintains its hold until the end. A very satisfying book with an extremely strong female character who maintains her determination and intelligence throughout.
Oh but I wish I could live in that palace, and you will too!

I received a free copy of this book via NetGalley and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Wow what a book the characters were great. Really good storyline and it was strong kept my focus on the characters and story.
