4.5 stars — Their love may not sit well for some around them, there isn’t another for them. Sure, there are some timeline issues in some of these books but overlooking that I found stories of tragic loss and the strength and love to find a way forward. The chemistry is scorching and undeniable. I voluntarily reviewed an Advance Reader Copy of this book.

Wow, wow, wow! Ms Rose did it again with these great set of stories. Overcoming hurt to find love again is a wonderful feeling. Putting your heart on the line more than once and hoping for a different outcome is what you will find in some of these stories. Putting family first and losing out on the best thing to happen to you and then it comes back to you. Losing everything that is important to you to one day finding a little slice of it again. You will find all of this and more in these books. Make sure you have at least 24 hours to read this book because you will not want to put it down. It story is heartfelt and warms your soul. Great Job Annie

This is an amazing 5 book box set. I was on the ARC team for each of the 5 books in this set. Below is the reviews to each books individually. As a whole, this box set will have you feeling what the characters feel. It will have you rooting for some of the characters while wanting some of the characters to figure out what you already know. Each book is unique while all still have the romance and intrigue to keep you interested. The characters are well thought of, developed and written in a way that is relatable.
Dating my best friend..Khloe and Jasper are well written, relatable characters. The struggle that they go through are what makes them real. Their chemistry is amazing. The story flows smoothly. This is another home run by Annie J Rose.

Picture perfect…This is a second chance at romance book. It is a great and realistic book. One has to give up on their dreams while the other gets a chance to pursue theirs. Alanna had hoped to spend her life with Bradley. Fast forward to now Bradley is a sought after photographer and Alanna is working in a bakery in their hometown to help her mother pay off her dad’s medical bills. There is a lot of anger coming from Alanna towards Bradley. The characters were great but can they overcome everything in order to truly get their HEA.

A wonderful set of forbidden romances.
This is a set of five different stories about forbidden romances. Each storyline is different and has a different theme as these men find women that maybe taboo but their attraction can’t be denied. They have a journey to get to their HEA but the journey is worth it! The characters are developed and and will pull you into each story.

This 5 Book Box Set kept me turning the pages until the very end! Each and every book in this wonderful collection had well written storylines and well created characters that kept me totally engaged in this must have box set!
This is a really great box set, I’ve read a couple already but now it’s better with them all on my kindle together. They each have their own wonderful characters & go through a range of emotions, I loved every one so couldn’t pick a favourite this is definately a set I’d recommend to anybody.

A sham marriage done for publicity, a seemingly rejected lover and potential second chance romance, a Hollywood “showmance” that becomes so much more, and former lovers reunited. Very different tales but all united by excellent story crafting with wonderful romance. Annie J. Rose is a master of this, and Forbidden Desires: A Contemporary Romance Box Set is a sampler of wonderful standalone tales showing her talent. Highly recommended.
His Muse:
His Muse is an emotional second chance love story that pulled at my heartstrings. Ben and Winnie had a summer fling that changed both of their lives forever. Years later they are reunited when he moves back home and the spark is still there. Secrets are revealed and they are given a second chance at love. This story had me breaking out the Kleenex and turning the pages to find out how their story would end. Great writing and believable characters make this a great read.
Filthy Mistake:
I enjoyed reading this fake marriage romance between a rockstar with a bad reputation and a school teacher. Emma wrote songs with Jax/Jeremy and had a crush on him in school. When he shows up back in their hometown his assistant thinks a fake marriage with Emma will help him with his bad rep. What starts out as a fake marriage turns into so much more but will it last. This is a beautiful, entertaining rockstar romance filled with drama, angst, emotions, steam and a great ending.
Pretend Wife:
Josh is an actor who wants to get better, mature roles. Abby is a tv writer and together they decide a fake relationship will help them both out with their careers. The more time they spend together the relationship turns from a fake one into a fake marriage then so much more. Their feelings grow for each other but they are both afraid to admit how they feel for each other. Great writing, well developed characters and a sweet love story make this a great read.
Picture Perfect:
Alanna and Bradley were high school sweethearts and they broke up when Alanna’s father got cancer. He went off to college and she stayed home to help her mom. Years later Bradley is headed home. This story really pulled on my heartstrings because of how Alanna seemed to give up on her dreams and life while Bradley went on and fulfilled his. Picture Perfect is a great read filled with heartbreak, angst, tears, regret and a perfect ending. My only complaint is that I wish the book was longer.
Dating my Best Friend:
Jasper and Khloe’s second chance love story is an emotional one. They were best friends growing up until a tragedy strikes changing their lives forever. Fifteen years later he’s back in their home town and he wants to reconnect with her. This author took on the sensitive subjects of death, PTSD and depression with care. Believable characters and an emotional storyline make this a good read.
Ok so I’m tired and keep forgetting names of characters in all the books. They are all good. I’m a sucker for second chance and fake relationships/marriage stories. I enjoyed all of the books. I’d recommend that they all be read.
