Gambling with the Crown (Heirs to the Throne of Kyr)

This sheikh plays to win! 

The crown of Kyr holds no appeal for pleasure-seeking sheikh Kadir al-Hassan—his memories of the kingdom are as dark as a desert's night. But neither will he shirk his duty…. Instead, Kadir returns home with a bride so unsuitable, no one will want him to be king! 
Long-suffering assistant Emily Bryant is the most important person in Kadir's high-octane life, and the most invisible—until she's promoted to royal bride! Sealing their marriage bargain with a scorching kiss leaves Kadir craving more…. 
Now Kadir must decide what's really at stake in his royal game—his desert duty, or Emily!

I liked the romance, but for me this story is much more than just that and we can see a difficult time for Kadir as his father died and now someone has to become the new sheikh. The romance was a little obvious and we can see that Kadir and Emily are meant to be, but at the same time is clichè, because she's like his secretary and they have a great working vibe.
For me some things were missing, like Kadir brother took forever to finally arrive and of course everything was already in course, and we know Emily father is suffering and she's doing everything to give him some peace and quiet time, but they never discussed this. To me the relationship was more important to Kadir and nothing about Emily life was ever the center of his attention, he knew next to nothing about her.

I liked more of the big story.
