With the Sheikh in His Harem Volume 5 Review
With the Sheikh in His Harem continues to handle a sheikh x commoner romance better than a lot of its Harlequin novel cousins do.

With the Sheikh in His Harem Volume 2 Review
It's hard to dislike With the Sheikh in His Harem, as it has a heroine doing more than just be the object of the male lead's affections.
