I think (but am not sure) that you need to use NAT 
(Network Address Translation) on your laptop.

I think many people do what you are asking,
except that it is normally the other way round -
with a desktop linked to the internet,
and laptop getting to the internet via the desktop.

I have this, and use shorewall on my desktop.
This is the standard Fedora firewall,
but it also includes the option to use NAT.
I think the installation is reasonably clear.

I actually have two local networks, for ethernet and WiFi,
and a third link to the internet.
It all seems to work OK.
