Not bad for a short story. I liked seeing that even though Caleb was a bad biker in a gang that Mary stopped to listen to what he had to say. I loved the fact that she choose to stay with Caleb knowing he would do everything in his power to save her. I recieved a free Arc copy of the book and I am voluntarily leaving an honest review.
As part of the ARC team, I was required to write an honest review. The story continues with Mary and Caleb as the drama and action kick in. However, I was a little underwhelmed. It was good but typical. Does it surely prove that true love is real but are we willing to fight for it?
As usual, the story was GREAT! We get a little more glimpse into the world of Caleb! It gets darker and darker and he is worried about brining Mary into it!
Mary has determined and proven that she is a big girl and can handle anything thrown her way!
I can’t wait to dive into book three to see where things go!
Gruesome Short Story – 3.0 stars
This short story depicts a fragment in time of two young lovers caught in the cross-hairs of differing familial beliefs. It is a gruesome world that the main male character lives in. It appears that unbeknownst to the main female character her background is similar to that of the main male character’s. The main male character’s existence could be quite short term.
This story ends on a cliff hanger.

Forbidden Desires is the second book in Vanessa James’ Alpha Bad Boy Forbidden series and is the continuation of Mary and Caleb’s story which began in the first book of the series entitled Forbidden Love. In Forbidden Desires, Mary and Caleb realize they love each other but their controlling fathers want to separate them. Mary learns the truth about her pastor father from Caleb. I highly recommend this great book (and series) with its interesting characters and a well written plot which will be continued in the third installment of the series entitled Forbidden Lies.
I received this book in exchange for a fair and honest review.
This series just keeps getting better and hotter. this is the second book in the Forbidden Series. We continue Caleb and Mary’s story in this book as their relationship heats up. There’s a lot of family dynamics with two controlling fathers who try to keep them apart. Caleb is one bad biker boy and Mary is a sweet college student. But you know what they say, opposites attract. This book packs a lot of action and steam into a relatively short book. Well written with likable characters and a steamy story line. No shortage of drama or suspense. ” I received this book in exchange for a fair and honest review”
In this second part of the Forbidden series, Caleb and Mary have decided to not see each other because of what Caleb’s life involves. They both care for each other but Caleb doesn’t want Mary to get hurt, until he realizes that he is the only one who can protect her at this point. Realizing all the weird things that are going on with Mary’s father and the rival gang, Caleb must make a decision to tell Mary and get her involved and then have her decide who she will side with in the end.
I liked the storyline but I didn’t really enjoy this book very much. I seemed to have a lot of repetitive words and phrases. There were also a lot of mistakes in this part of the series. The first part seemed to flow better as well. There was no fluidity here, there were only rough transitions. I also found myself confused sometimes as to what or where things were happening. The imagery was not descriptive enough. I hope that the other 3 parts are better than this
This is the first book in this series that I have read and since it is a continuing story, I am not sure what has happened up to this point. I do know that I enjoyed this part of the series that shows Mary and Caleb coming to terms with the fact they want to be together. The Skulls are no longer in control of the east side of the city but at a major loss to life. Mary learns hard facts about her father and this book ends with another cliffhanger. It will be interesting to read what happens next. I enjoyed this segment even though it is seems to be a small part of the story.
