“Once you enter, anything goes. No fantasy–however dark and dirty and depraved it may be–is forbidden. You have no past, no inhibitions, no morals…and no memory.
All you have to cling to is the memory of a scorching touch, a searing kiss, the wet slide of skin on skin, and the heat of breath across your flesh.
Step forward…
Turn the knob…
Step through into THE BLACK ROOM.” (Book #1)
“Silence. Perfect, utter silence. A drowning quiet. A longing, deep and unfulfilled, soul-deep, a bone-deep need for something I cannot have; the first sensation. Pang of loss, gnaw of guilt, acid bite of shame, burning heat of lust, a deep delicious soreness in all the right places—all of these sensations roil and coil and mingle together, wedded; the second sensation. I open my eyes; the third sensation.
I’m in the room of black doors.” (Book #2)
The Black Room Series By Jasinda Wilder and Jade London kept me enthralled from beginning to end. I really didn’t know what to expect going into this series, but the synopsis intrigued me so much that I went on a one-clicking frenzy and snapped up the entire series to devour- and devour them I did.
The books are all quite short, quick and easy reads. But each one packs a punch, keeping you guessing, and completely engrossed by the story. I had so many questions right from the outset. There is a real mysteriousness to the whole story that had me trying to guess where the it was leading, and entirely unsure of the outcome.
Each book adds another layer to this complex and intriguing story- there are so many facets, which when layered on top of one another begin to build a truly fascinating story. From book one where we are really not sure where we are, how we got there, or what the heck is happening, the black room, all the doors, all the discoveries, and encounters, book after book, door after door, layer upon layer- things are never quite as they appear- and they way this series/story is pieced together, and the ‘revelation’ at the end was really clever!
This book/series is HOT, erotic, dark, delicious, and unputdownable. I read the entire series back to back- and enjoyed every second. This is definitely a story/series I won’t soon forget. It’s one I can see myself revisiting again in the future.
Brilliant!
Thank you, Ms. Wilder and Ms. London!!

This was available free to me for my kindle on Amazon and you all know the deal. The author is beginning her series, “The Black Room” with this introductory novel.
Well, my dear readers, what a beginning!!! The setting is mysterious and your reader “senses” seem to be misfiring when trying to put together the mental picture of where the character is as you begin the read. You’re not sure if the speaker is awake, dreaming, fully within their normal faculties of consciousness. Where is she going?
The more you read the more you need to know. The beautifully descriptive language is telling you everything but not enough…Then there is him.
How the author describes him is virtuosic of the English language. She gives us every detail we for which we hunger…we need to know.
What he does to her!!! OMFG!!! He is a dream “devil” master lover and we are transported by their “sexual congress”. Time is frozen in their heat.
She steals a kiss…she should not have.
Whether you are ready to begin the series or not…you need to read this haunting, beautiful beginning in the dark. It’s a classic. It produces cinema in your mind. It’s almost meditative but not…it bothers you in the very best way.
I do believe I’m hooked and ready to take the larger journey to solve the mystery of such an intense, offbeat and curious beginning. One-click if you are curious too.
