Sheik’s Rule
by Ryshia Kennie
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
GENRE: Romantic Suspense
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
BLURB:
His sister's life is at
stake, and despite his wealth and power, Sheik Emir Al-Nassar feels helpless.
At least heading his family's security agency provides him with resources to
track down her kidnappers. But when the ace profiler he's sent turns out to be
K. J.—Kate—Gelinsky, Emir is furious. Finding the kidnappers' desert hideout is
dangerous enough without the distraction of a beautiful woman.
But K.J. is unlike any
woman he's ever known. Her fearlessness and incisive mind inspires Emir's
admiration. And her compassion breaches his guarded heart. Still, rescuing his
sister is a perilous mission. And allowing desire to cloud his focus could
endanger them all.

EXCERPT:
“I’m puzzled. Why did
they send the video to me?” Kate murmured.
“How did they know about me?”
“They’ve got some sort of inside information. Or maybe they contacted the others when they
saw you at the airport.”
“How did they find out my name?”
“I don’t know,” he said looking at her in a way that had
nothing to do with what she was saying.
She was unprepared when he bent and kissed her and even more
so for her own reaction, for the need and want that made her put her arms
around his neck and, for a few seconds, to allow herself to sink into that
kiss.
It was instinctive and so very wrong. She pushed him back, her hands on his
shoulders, creating a distance between them.
They were trapped in an emotional situation and it was a natural human
reaction to turn from trauma to passion.
He stood there for a moment then his eyes met hers and a
truth seemed to pass between them. That
what happened was real, as real as the tragedy unfolding around them. But now it was Tara who eclipsed all and they
both knew it.
“She’ll die if we don’t get her out of there soon,” he
said. “Let’s move.”

AUTHOR Bio and Links:
The Canadian
prairies are my home and while the prairie landscape is blessed with beautiful
blue skies, it also has four seasons that come on full throttle – especially
winter and because of that I like to travel.
Often on those trips, stories are born.
In 2011 I won my
city's writing award, and was the first romance writer to do so since its
inception. In 2013 my romantic suspense
was a semi-finalist in the Kindle Book Awards.
Published in historic romance and paranormal romance as well as romantic
suspense, in February 2016, my first novel was published by Harlequin Intrigue.
There’s no lack
of places to set a story as my imagination and the too long prairie winters may
find me seeking adventure. The memories
of those worlds both near and far, the words of a stranger, the furtive look
one man gives another, often become the catalyst for a suspenseful story with a
deadly villain and an intrepid hero and heroine who must battle for their right
to love or even their right to live.
When not dreaming
of other stories, I can be found scouting out a garage sale or two, dusting off
my roller blades or just thinking about the next adventure that may be miles
away or in my own backyard.

RispondiEliminaThank you so much for having me.
RispondiEliminaI’m excited to be here and for this day to finally arrive – Sheik’s Rule published and sharing it with all of you. It seems forever ago and yesterday that I was dreaming of how Emir and Kate would get past their differences, how they would possibly stop the kidnappers on time, how… They’re a fiery couple but made for each other just like the Moroccan setting was made for their romance. Have you ever fallen in love with a setting, a place? I think I do with each book I write. But Morocco was different, I visited it on my honeymoon so it brought back great memories to “travel” back to today’s Morocco.
I’ll pop in and out through the day. I’m looking forward to any questions or comments – in fact I have the first cup of coffee ready to go!
The book sounds interesting. Sexy book cover.
RispondiEliminaSounds good. love the cover.
