Sinful Desires (The Sinful Series Book 4)
By erikawilde
Raevynn and Collin were young high school sweethearts, he 18 and she 17. They were in love and had only just consummated their love once, when they were ripped apart. Collin broke her heart (and his own) when he told her they were nothing, then he walked away. Now years later, she’s a bona fide superstar singer, with money and fame and the glamorous life. Collin’s never forgotten or gotten over her, and he’s watching her perform, so close to her he can practically reach out and touch her. But he doubts she’d ever want to be near him considering he broke her heart. But perhaps she’s never gotten over him, too, and just might need him to take her away from her suffocating life. Will her prince rescue her?
Rae wants nothing but to live a normal life. But how can she when she’s surrounded by paparazzi, bodyguards, and most significantly, her controlling, suffocating mother/manager. When Collin appears like a lifeline, she grabs a hold of him, knowing she can probably only be with him for a few days at most before her life comes calling. Might a second chance be on their horizon, or is this Rapunzel doomed to stay locked in her isolated tower?
Erika Wilde’s writing is always sexy and effortlessly entertaining, but I think this one in particular is one of my favorites even though it’s fairly short, because Rae & Collin struck a chord with me. Their second chance felt so organic, and it was clear these two had never gotten over each other, that their love had only grown in the years since they had last seen each other. I’m not sure which fairy tale is getting a modern makeover next in the Dirty Sexy Fairy Tales world, but I know it will be as sexy and emotionally layered as Unforgotten Passion.
Paperback. I loved reading book 4 in this dirty sexy fairy tales series. I liked how the author started all the books at the same party and spread out the characters from one central point. Collin and Raevynn where great characters. Young loves until they weren’t. With Raevynn off to be a singer and Collin off to college it seems these two are destined to be apart. This is seven years later at the party. Collin sees her and Tempest gives him the go ahead to see her. Then from there Rae gets her freedom, they have time together and a few home truths come out. A very good story from start to finish.
I loved Collin and Raevynn’s amazing second chance love story in Unforgotten Passion by Erika Wilde, book four in her Dirty Sexy Fairy Tales Series; this one paralleling Rapunzel. Raevynn is a famous rock star who is surrounded by fame and fortune. Unfortunately, every choice or decision about her life has been controlled by others; especially her mother. Rae dreams of breaking free; able to make decisions for herself. Collin couldn’t resist the opportunity to attend the Wilder Way Fairy Tale Ball if only to catch a glimpse of the famous singer; a girl he once loved but was forced to let go. Seeing each other backstage, Raevynn asks Collin to rescue her from her crazy life, even if only a short time. Being together was like turning the clock back to when they were teens as they rekindled the passions they thought were forgotten. As their time approaches an end, Raevynn needs a game plan to save herself from her tower and take control of her life. Only then can she return to Collin, free of her shackles and ready to embrace a life together.
Ms. Wilde has written an amazing series that is fun, romantic, and smoking hot; with lovable characters. I highly recommend Unforgotten Passion to other readers.
I voluntarily reviewed a complimentary copy of this book.
Sometimes dreams to come true. Collin went to the ball not expecting to see Raevynn but fate stepped in. Raevynn needed a break and Collin was her escape as well as the man she couldn’t get over. I loved that these two get a second chance at love.
FINALLY! Raevynn and Collin’s story in Unforgotten Passion by Erika Wilde is here!
Erika never fails, ever, to write a story that is truly unique to others I normally read.
Raevynn and Collin have a past, and when Collin sees her at a fundraiser event singing, he’s completely taken with her and those sparks ignite once again. When the two of them escape Raevynn’s security, the two of them come together in heat and passion so intense it’s something that can’t be ignored. But, Raevynn is trapped. Her controlling mother is her agent, and she isn’t sure she’ll ever be able to get out from her controlling thumb.
This book was an amazing addition to the Dirty Sexy Fairy Tales books. I couldn’t stop reading it once I started.
If you want a book full of heat, passion, and love, this is the one for you!
This book is the perfect addition to the Fairy Tales series. Raevynn and Collin are amazing and their story is so lovely and romantic that it was hard to put the book down. I love every single book in this series. I received an advance reader copy in exchange of my honest review.
This book was really good. I’m a sucker for a good second chance romance and this one was done really well. Raevynn was a pop star and Collin was the guy who let her get away. The two of them had a chance second chance meeting and time to learn if they still had feelings for each other. Of course this has an HEA so there were all the feelings between them but this was an enjoyable quick read. No crazy twists or anything. It was pretty much what you would expect.
*I received an ARC for an honest review*
Raevynn and Colin was the first love of each other, a pure and true love, that even evil and time can separate.
Rae and Colin were seven years apart, Without ever seeing each other, but fate put them in the same place at the best possible time for both of them.
Raevyn is a rising music star and in a benefit show for the company where Colin works he has the opportunity to see and hear her and remember the love they lived… When he approaches her, they are both surprised by the reunion and Rae’s unexpected request.
A retelling of a fairy tale, in this case, Rapunzel, Erika Wilde shows us the ‘princess’ who lived trapped in the tower for many years taking her life back with the help of a beautiful and loving ‘prince charming’.
Loved it!
Collin and Raevyn’s story is one of my favorite second chance romances this year! This book had everything, hot, sexy times and unforgettable love. Definitely recommend this book.
I absolutely loved Collin and Rae’s story. Going to a ball is the last thing that Collin wanted to do but he did it so he could get a glimpse of Rae, the one who got away. He’s loved her from the moment he met her and she him, but circumstances broke them apart when he was eighteen and now a grown man and seeing her again after all these years, there’s no way he’s letting her go again. Rae has had a great life, only it’s not what she wanted, it’s what her mother wanted. She’s tired of it, needs space and time to think about what is best for her and when she hears her name and the person attached to that breath, she knows this is her chance to get back what she’s always wanted, Collin. These two are electric, sexy, smoldering hot together! I’ve loved all of the stories in this series but I have to say I think Collin and Rae’s story is my favorite by far. Loved it, highly recommend it. It can be read as a standalone, but why not read the whole series to get a feel for all the characters.
Unforgotten Passion was a sexy retelling of the story of Repunzel, and the fourth story in the Dirty Sexy Fair Tales series. What a great second chance love story that has so much sizzle, you won’t be able to put it down. You will love Collin and Raevynn’s story. Erika Wilde is such a great storyteller that you will be hooked from the opening page. I highly recommend this story and this series.
Unforgotten Passion is a great story. Collin and Raevynn have known each other for ever but have been apart for a few years and Collin and Raevynn have always regretted that. Now Collin sees Raevynn at a fundraiser and she does the unthinkable and runs away with him for a week. Will this week bring them back together? Erika does amazing job with her stories and this is no exception. Make sure to one click.
This is a cute take on Rapunzel. It’s a story about high school sweethearts reunited 7 years later and realizing they are still in love.
I love a good second chance romance, don’t you? Collin Donovan and Raevynn (Rae) Walsh grew up next door to one another. For a few short months before Collin left for college and Rae was headed to the singing competition show Encore, the teenagers snuck around together, only getting caught by Rae’s mother the same day they took things to a new level. Collin was forced to make the hard decision to let Rae go or face the wrath of her mother.
Now 7 years later, Collin works for Mad-X Tech as an Analyst and Rae was brought in as the entertainment for this year’s Wilder Charity Ball. He can’t keep his eyes off of her. Their paths cross again and Rae asks Collin to sweep her away from her life, even if it’s for a short reprieve. They hideaway from her reality at his family’s beach house and rediscover one another. Now knowing what made Collin walk away all those years ago, Rae understands she needs to make a few changes to her career if she wants to have an actual life. The question is will Rae be strong enough to stand up to her mother or will Collin lose his chance to be with the only woman he has ever loved?
Raevynn is the hottest pop star and Collin is the boy who loved her once upon a time. In this modern day retelling of Rapunzel, we see a man who never lost his love and a woman who finds herself. Not to say she never got over him either. Rae has some huge decisions about where her life needs to go but never has the space to think things through. Collin gives her that and more to think about. Their high school love was quickly over but the feelings they had lasted so much longer. It is amazing to me how invested i was able to become in this quick story. Erika Wilde has this ability to have a reader hooked from the first few words.
A great addition to the fairy tale series. Collin and Raevynn grew up together, did everything together and eventually the friendship turned into so much more. But when her stardom became more important in her mother’s eyes the two were torn apart. With one brief encounter many years later the two reunite. Can you runaway from stardom and be with your one true love? Or will responsibility and obligation be the deciding factor? I instantly fell in love with the characters. Erika Wilde continues to give the reader a perfect storyline to break us away from life’s uncharted path. A great read.
Unforgotten Passion was such a sweet and sexy second chance romance with a very beautiful Rapunzel-like heroine. I finished this story in one day and then had to go back to the beginning to reread it again. It was just so great! I absolutely loved Raevynn and Collin. They had so much heart and lots of heat! You will definitely fall in love with this couple and this very adult fairy tale.
This is a modern retelling of Rapunzel and I fell in love. Collin and Rae get a second chance at being together after years apart. This is sweet, sexy, and totally irresistible.
Dirty and pure are a total contradiction. Wilde proves herself a genius when it comes to making them work. Unforgotten Passion is an imaginative, stroll into the dark side of a fairytale. Behind the beautiful dressing lies heartache as tempting as it is dangerous. Raevynn and Collin are magic. Their dance of love is a masterful blend of past regrets and present shadows. Secrets haunt them. Danger stalks them. Will their happy ending forever elude them. Wilde has crafted a mesmerizing enigma that sticks in your heart and stays on your mind.
Such a sweet rendition of Prince Charming (Collin) and Rapunzel ( Raevynn). And a second chance romance to boot. I loved everything about this book…it was heart felt and recommend everyone go read it, it doesn’t have to be read with the rest in the series. It is a great stand alone book.
