La sinossi di questo romance di prossima uscita mi aveva incuriosito, lo sceicco ha sempre il suo fascino, soprattutto quando la sua realtà si incontra con il nostro occidente, ma soprattutto non mi ha delusa una volta terminata la lettura.
La trama e' molto realistica, così come le caratteristiche dei due personaggi principali.
Sayid al Katar si e' ritrovato a essere il nuovo sceicco del suo Paese, dopo l'improvvisa morte in un incidente stradale del fratello e della cognata. La cosa non lo entusiasma, e' stato allevato sin dalla più tenera infanzia a essere il guerriero, il protettore del regno, a costo di grandi sacrifici e sofferenze psicologiche e fisiche inflitte dallo zio, che si occupava della sua educazione. All'improvviso scopre, che in realtà, esiste un erede al trono, il figlio del fratello, che in gran segreto e' stato concepito grazie a una madre surrogato, Chloe, sorella della moglie dello sceicco defunto.
La donna aveva altri progetti per la sua vita, e' una scienziata, una matematica che in un futuro sogna di conquistare una cattedra universitaria; ha accettato di dare alla luce il futuro erede per aiutare la sorella, ma il destino le ha riservato una bella sorpresa, lasciandola da sola con un bambino che non ha mai desiderato e dipende da lei.
Sayid vuole l'erede al trono del suo Paese, Chloe, nonostante tutto, non e' disposta ad abbandonare il piccolo nelle mani di quest'uomo così distaccato, votato solo al suo dovere verso il popolo. I due dovranno collaborare per il bene del bambino, ma per poterlo fare, salvare le apparenze e tutelare il piccolo saranno costretti a un matrimonio di copertura, anche se le scintille che nascono dai loro confronti impediscono loro di avere il rapporto freddo e distaccato che vorrebbero.
Il libro e' molto bello, la scrittura scorrevole e in men che non si dica, ci si trova immersi nella realtà di questo racconto, catturati dalla personalità complessa e tormentata di Sayid e dalla forza e tenacia di Chloe. L'ho veramente divorato in poche ore e versato anche qualche lacrimuccia.
In futuro cercherò ancora altri libri di questa scrittrice, molto molto brava.

The synopsis of this upcoming romance intrigued me , Sheikh always has his charms, especially when its actually meets with our culture, but I was very pleased altre the reading.
The plot is very realistic, as well as the characteristics of the two main characters.
Sayid al Katar is the new ruler of his country, after the sudden death in a car accident of his brother and sister-in-law. He's not so happy about this, he was formed since the earliest childhood to be the Warrior, the protector of the realm, at the cost of great sacrifices and psychological and physical suffering inflicted by his uncle, who took care of his education. Suddenly discovers, that in fact, there is an heir to the throne, the son of his brother, who in great secrecy was born by a surrogate mother, Chloe, sister of the wife of the Sheikh.
The woman had other plans for her life, she is a scientist, a mathematics in a future she has dreams to teach to a University; She has agreed to give birth to the future heir to help her sister, but the fate has reserved a nice surprise, leaving her alone with a child She never wanted to and depends on her.
Sayid wants the heir to the throne of his country, Chloe, in spite of everything, is not willing to abandon the baby in the hands of this man so detached, voted only to his duty towards his people. The two must work together for the good of the child, but in order to do so, save the appearances and protect the child they will be forced to a wedding coverage, although the sparks that arise from them are preventing them from having the cold and detached relationship they want.
The book is very nice, smooth writing and in no time, you find yourself immersed in the reality of this tale, captured by Sayid' s complex and tortured personality and the strength and tenacity of Chloe. I read it in a few hours and I spilled some tears from my eyes.
In the future I will try other books by this author, She 's very very good.
