What a fabulous start to a new series and a new author and I am so thankful book 2 is out already. From the opening pages this story had my attention and I found the wanting to go out and have one night of celebration so easy to relate to. Mia is a college student who meets Hudson on her last night before college and the chemistry between the two is off the charts. I love the dark alpha that is Hudson and this author had so many incredible mini story lines built into the main story. The author did a great job developing the characters and really leaving the reader longing for more. I am now left hanging on the edge of my seat and getting ready to dive into book two
4 stars for Forbidden Lust by Brooke Summers. This is book 1 in the Kingpin series. I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. All opinions states are my own. OMG I just finished this and it left off with one hell of a cliffhanger. Mia had one amazing night where she lost her virginity to a one-night stand. She left the next mourning with out so much as leaving a note. Hudson had an amazing night with Mia and has been looking for her since. Now 2 years later the two meet again, but now they are step brother and sister. Hudson is keeping secrets, but he still isn’t going to give her up no matter what. Hudson is the Kingpin and has lots of enemies. Man, this story had me hooked from the beginning. It was filled with suspense, drama and lots of steam. I can not wait for book 2.
I received a copy of this book from the publisher/author to review.

Forbidden Lust in the first book in Brooke Summers Kingpin Series. Mia and Hudson have one of the most amazing one night stands. However that doesn’t stop her from leaving the next morning never knowing his name. However that doesn’t stop her from thinking of him from time to time. However all that is about to change when she goes home to meet her new stepfather and his son Hudson. The one night stand. Now that Hudson has found Mia again she is not letting her go. However things are about to get really interesting since Hudson is carrying around huge secrets that Mia knows nothing about. You have to read to find out what happens but I promise this book is well worth reading.
This is the 1st in a series and is Mia and Hudson’s story. This author has done an awesome job in penning this tale which is a fast paced read and is raw, gritty, intense, dark and steamy as well as being filled with angst, action and lust which all lead to an engaging and riveting tale which had me intrigued and hooked throughout. I look forward to reading the 2nd book in this series and recommend for all.
This is a new to me author that I’ve heard good things about so was dying to try.
Love how she’s made the heroine relatable to fellow booknerds.
The beginning chapter or so felt a bit disjointed for me but after that the puzzle pieces started more smoothly and felt myself getting sucked in. A lot happened during and because of that one night for many people/couples. Will Hudson’s rise in ranks fix or break things? Will Mia be able to follow her heart or continue to put those around her first.
There is a reason why there’s a saying about how things get messy before they get better. Watch as “problems” start flying from all directions. You won’t know who to trust or believe until a gun is pointed at them and maybe not even then. There is always another agenda or player in the dark corners of the world.
Impressive first book of a series, surprised me after the start. Looking forward to rest of series.
Mia and Hudson have a great one night stand only for her to leave the next morning with no names exchanged but neither has forgot about each other but that all changes when Mia meets her new step dad and step brother and it’s the man she can’t stop dreaming of and this time he’s not keen on letting her get away so quickly but there’s a lot of things she doesn’t know about Hudson yet. Can’t wait to start the next book
I loved this book!! I just finished it and I have to say I’m reeling!! That ending though!! I love a good Mafia story and a good stepbrother story so mixing them together is just perfect! I loved the different characters and hated others when they deserved it. I’m still up in the air about her mom… So like I said reeling!! Can’t wait to get my hands on part 2! Hudson and Jagger belong in my harem right now!
I have a thing for hot dangerous men.
That’s why this story my attention. And let me tell you that we have many sexy possessive men here.
It also has others of my favorite: age Gap couple, instant attraction, innocent girl and dangerous man…
Mia and Hudson meet for one explosive night. When Hudson wakes the next morning Mia is gone. Names were never exchanged so Hudson has no way of knowing who is mystery girl is, but he can’t stop thinking of her. Mia gets a surprise new step-father and goes home over summer break to meet her name family, including her new step-brother. Sparks fly when they take one look at each other. But Mia is surrounded by secrets that just keep coming. When Hudson’s big secret be too much? This was a good read. I’m not a big fan of instalove, but I’m a sucker for a mafia story. The only thing that kept it from being a 5 star for me is that I wanted more of the mafia side of the story. I love the action! It does end on a cliff-hanger so there is your warning. I can’t wait for the next book!
Seriously??? I’m pretty sure No one told me this book was a cliff hanger! I don’t like them!
Brilliant story though, Insta lust, hot and heavy, drama, mafia, the works. Love it! Second book better not take long!
After one night everything change for Mia and Hudson.
They both wondering if one night really can change your life?
This book is so intense. The suspense was killing me, well, still kills me every time i remember about it and can’t wait for book 2!!
Well, i will just say that finding her wasn’t an easy task for Hudson, and found out who is he, was not something she expected to be true.
But life has strange ways to put two together…so this is their strange and intense story.
Mia and Hudson take you on a action packed, emotional, romantic read that will have you laughing one minute and crying the next. Pulls you in and keeps you there and wanting more and more. Can’t wait to see what happens next.

This book and author is a first for me.
This is going to be book one in the Kingpin series. ( Kingpin #1)
The story is about Mia and Hudson.
Mia has a one night stand with a man that she now can’t get out of her head, he’s flipped her world.
Her mum gets married to a man and over the summer Mia goes home to meet him but while there Mia gets the shock of her life.
Hudson is not a nice guy, he’s a complete alpha male and a badass kingpin he’s took over from his dad with the business and he’s quite unpredictable.
Hudson goes to the party and meets Mia, she’s looking at him stunned while he’s already thinking about her naked body.
Hudson is Mia’s step brother and is also harbouring a secret.
These characters do have great chemistry between each other, but this is a forbidden love story. This is a dangerous story and someone is bound to get hurt.
In this case the past should stay the past.
I think the author writes brilliantly however I just wasn’t feeling the story line.
I wasn’t really sure about this book and I think that this time that this story wasn’t for me, and a tad predictable at times.
Thank you to the author and publishers for allowing me to read an early copy of this book.
ARC provided in exchange for an honest review.
This book is out now.
Rolling good start to this new series
—>>> A lot of emotional as well as mafia drama unfolds in this story, beginning with a night of fun at a club where two best friends met guys who changed their hearts. Mia meets a sexy man who would be her first, but he would just remain an unforgettable and nameless presence in her heart for nearly the next two years…until Mia meets him again. This time around, though, he has a name, and he is now the son of the man her mother married just two weeks ago. Quite unexpectedly. Hudson does not intend to let Mia slip through his fingers this time, but what with all the goings-on occurring all around him as well as bodies stacking up now that he has taken over “business” from his father, his attention is divided with putting out fires everywhere. The only thing is, he has not told Mia what he does for work, but she is going to find out definitely sooner rather than later because now she has a target on her back, and they mean business. Hudson’s worst fear come true. The cliffhanger that this book ends on will definitely leave you wanting to read more about all the characters introduced!
This book… I loved this book! This was my first Brooke Summers book! I picked it because it was the first book of a new series that she is writing (Kingpin #1). I am so glad that I took a chance on this one!
This book was fast moving and easy to read. I loved the characters!! Hudson Brady is one hot character!!
It started with a one night stand to a surprise that nether of them expected! Sorry, not sorry… You will have to read this one to know what I am talking about…
I can’t wait to see what else is coming for this series!
My personal goal for 2020 was to try out new author that I haven’t read before. I am so glad that I discovered Brooke Summers!! This will not be my last Brooke Summers book!
~ Review by Heidi Pharo
Forbidden Lust is hot from the get go! I fell head over heels for Hudson. This man. Damn. He’s cold and ruthless, which he has to be since he’s a Kingpin. But when he’s with Mia? He’s sweet and comforting. He has so much heart for Mia. It was truly beautiful to watch their relationship blossom. Not only was the sex hot and the relationship beautiful, the side characters were phenomenal. I found myself wanting to know more about them as much as the main characters.
Forbidden Lust is chock full of lust, sex, heat, sweet, and beautiful heartfelt love. That being said, I’m going to need the next book like now! Why you do me like this Brooke Summers?
Forbidden Lust by Brooke Summers is the First Book in the Kingpin Series. This is the story of Mia and Hudson. Mia and her friend Sarah both sneak out for a last night before moving onto collage. They go to a club/bar where the drink and dance. There Mia meets a mystery man who tells her that she is going home with him. Mia does go home with him and sneaks away the next morning. Fast forward to their present day Mia finds out that her mother has married and she has a new Step-Brother. When they meet Mia knows him already…he is her one night stand before college.
Hudson has taken over the business since his father has decided to step down. Hudson is dangerous and usually gets what he wants, so when he gets Mia back into his life he focus points to her.
But he is a dangerous Kingpin and of course there is more to their story. I can’t wait for the next book!
