REVIEW: Pregnant by the Sheikh by Olivia Gates

Pregnant by the Sheikh by Olivia Gates is the third part in The Billionaire’s of Blackcastle series and can be easily read as a standalone. Princess Jenan Aal Ghamdi thought that she was doomed to marry a man she hates for the greater good but that was until Sheikh Numair Al Aswad rescues her from an arranged marriage. But he has a shocking price…an heir! Though logic screams no, her body and soul burn for him.

Numair has come from the darkest of pasts to exact revenge—and to claim his throne. Jenan is vital to his plans. But his cold-blooded scheme melts under the heat of their passion. Now he must choose: his lifelong ambitions or the woman who carries his unborn child.

Pregnant by the Sheikh by Olivia Gates was certainly a treat to read from the first page to the end. Numair has overcome a lot and his need for revenge is somewhat justified. I loved his lethal personality which made me swoon a lot. His being a tortured hero just added more intensity to his character. Jenan is a strong, independent heroine who cannot help being affected by Numair despite her past. She too had some issues to deal with before she could get her happily ever after. I loved her because she was fiercely protective of her independence which for me personally is always a good quality in a heroine. She was also strong enough to love Numair and show him the right path.

The romance is hot as it is always the case with the author’s books.The explosive chemistry and the great dialogues adds even more intensity to the passionate verbal clashes between the characters. As this is a revenge sheikh romance, the drama and over the top element was always lurking somewhere and this made the story even more interesting!
