Romance Series

When the Prince, Sheikh Fareed Aal Zaafer, learns of his most beloved brother's accident, he travels to the States. Finding himself too late, instead claims the body to take home to Jizaan, but not before Hesham extracts a promise from him. His woman, Lyn, and a small child are to be found and protected against their father, the King. Fareed spends months interviewing multitudes of women after searching endlessly in an effort to find the woman and child that were connected to his brother.

Tired after interviewing imposters declaring to be the woman he seeks, a golden vision of his dreams appears to have an audience with Fareed, who is world renowned for being a surgeon. Gwen McNeal appeals to Fareed to look at her baby's case. Eight month old Ryan has spinal bifida and Gwen trusts only the acclaimed Fareed to help her ailing child. Will the royal surgeon place his personal mission on hold to help a child? Will his attraction to the child's mother cause even more issues for the already distracted Prince?

Gwen is a dedicated woman protecting the most important thing in her life, her baby. Facing off with the powerful Prince becomes a battle of wills. A SECRET BIRTHRIGHT moves quickly and is a definite page turner. Once you start the story, you can't put it down until the last page has been read. Olivia Gates has a way with words to turn the heart with sympathy and compassion for the characters. I thoroughly enjoyed this read!

Prince Fareed Aal Zaafer is driven by one purpose—to find his late brother's family. But when Gwen McNeal arrives, needing his help, Fareed is relieved she is not the woman he seeks, for he must claim her for his own. Fareed is Gwen's last—and most dangerous—hope. For he doesn't just overwhelm her senses, he sweeps her and her baby away to his kingdom—the last place she should ever go. Now she must hide the truth, and deny the desire between them at any cost. For if she fails, the result will be unthinkable….
