My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This book! Like I am legit struggling with how to properly blubber on about it with as much passion and excitement that I want to without giving away too much and spoiling this gem for anyone else. This is a new author to me and honestly I went in blind solely based off the bada** cover that graces it. I was so glad to find that the contents behind that cover would blow me away just as much as it did. This book will take you on a journey you didn’t know was missing from your life and leave you addicted and craving the next fix/book as soon as you possibly can get your hands on it. I know that is exactly where I am right now. Only saving grace for me was I can go read other released novels of hers while I wait!

Summer Princess is quite the tale of love, drama, danger, fae, and mystical creatures that will surely steal your heart away. Almost immediately you are thrust into this dark and disparaging world with the main character, Emilia. She is forced to find a way to survive in the darkness right along with the fae themselves. What will ensue will be an adventure and a romance you don’t want to miss. I can’t say enough good about this book so go read it for yourself and find out just what you are missing!

Summer Princess by Sloane Murphy was an incredible novel! I was completely captured and enraptured in this story from the beginning to the end. It was so very well written and detailed, I was amazed. The drama and suspense and slight mystery only added to the appeal of the novel. This one reminds me a bit of the Throne of Glass novels in a way. Fae books have quickly become some of my favorites to read and this one certainly didn’t disappoint! I can’t wait to read the second installment!

In this opposites attract story, we are introduced to Emilia Daarke and Cade Vasara. Emilia is destined for a life she doesn’t want but Cade has to make her acquainted with her new lifestyle. Emilia was caught by her father but thrown into a deadly game where she has to win for herself and her loved ones as well.
Cade is caught between a rock and a hard place as he struggles to find balance between love and his sworn duty. Can Cade have the best of both worlds? This book will answer this question as the story continues to unfold for the reader.
Betrayal and secrets will either push these two to work together or push them apart. Another action-packed read for me from the start to the finish. It’s full of romance, action, unpredictable, and steamy scenes to keep you captivated till the end.

Summer Princess by Sloan Murphy is the first book in the Dark Fae series. This is an interesting story that really hooks you from the start.
Emilia and Cade for me are definitely what make this book. They are such strong characters that I was instantly drawn to them. It was so easy to connect with them as a reader. The author does a great job of building the story and keeping the development going.
I thought this was a really strong start to a series and can’t wait to read more.

I absolutely love a good fantasy book and was so excited to find this book and author. I am so pleased to say that this book met my expectations. A grand universe has been created with some fantastic characters and plot development. I sped through this story and read it in one session. It reminded me in scale of several beloved authors in my library, Sarah J Maass, Stacey Marie Brown. Just a fantastic story that I cannot wait to continue reading.

5 out of 5 stars

The story Summer Princess (Dark Fae Book 1) by Sloane Murphy is a paranormal/dark fantasy book. It is a story that had me hooked from the start and I found myself not wanting to put it down until I had finished the last page. It is a story that includes secrets, betrayal, and family ties. I enjoyed reading about the character of Emilia Daarke. She is a young woman who has fallen for the wrong person and finds herself being manipulated into a deadly game. Emilia is headstrong and independent. Will she be able to save the one that she loves? Cade Vasara is still in love with Emelia. He finds himself having to choose between his love for her and his duties. What does the future hold for Emilia and Cade? Read this book to find out. This story has some dark themes and very emotional moments. There are heartbreaking moments that left me angry with what was happening and also feeling for Emilia and what she is having to go through. There are twists and turns that I didn’t see coming and I was always wondering what was going to happen or be revealed next. This is a story that you don’t want to miss out on. Highly recommended reading.

I enjoyed this book. It is a dark fantasy story that has a lot happening but it kept me turning pages just to see what will happen next with the characters. This story is written in such a way that you can picture the vivid details of the story. This is a well developed story with creative characters that are strong and connectable. Emilia has fallen in love but the problem is she can’t have him. Her father has other plans for her that puts her in a game that if she loses, she could lose those she loves. Cade is torn between duty and the one person he has loved. This story is full of secrets, betrayal and love which made it really easy to read. I highly recommend reading this book to find out what happens with Emilia and Cade.

Forbidden (Tales of Passion, Lust & Betrayal Vol. 1) by Autumn Sand – Review by Sara Oxton

ForbiddenForbidden by Autumn Sand
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Forbidden by Autumn Sand a complex four-star read. I don’t know what to say about this one without telling you what’s behind the seven doors, other than be warned you will need a tall glass of something cold to cool you off after taking a peep behind each door. Each story is individual having its own characters and naughtiness, it’s fascinating that all of these things could come from one mind. What a mind you must have Autumn Sand, I know I would love to sit with you over cocktails and pick your brain.

Forbidden by Autumn Sand made me feel like a voyeur looking in a window at the neighbors. I have read several books by Ms. Sand, enjoyed them but knew she wasn’t the rainbow love type of author and she proved it once again.

Each one of the doors was a different story with a different plot and was incredibly well written. Of them all I liked door one the best, just something about the story that grabbed me.

If you want to peek into the lives of others and have time for a short book then give this one a try.

Forbidden was a hot and steamy 5 star read.

I was excited to read this book. The book starts with us going into club Forbidden, we meet Neria who is our hostess. She takes us through the club to seven doors, behind each door there is a different sexual scenario.

We get some very hot and steamy scenes that include some erotica as well. We also get some unexpected twists that added great elements to each story. Autumn does a great job of pulling you right in, once I started I couldn’t stop reading. This is a quick read that should be read with an open mind. I look forward to reading the next book.

Forbidden is a short book. It’s basically a story per chapter. Every door at forbidden gives you a different story. There’s something for everyone. Some of these were amazing reads. I have never read anything by this author that had this amount of heat. This is definitely worth a chance. I’m sure you will find a few of these that you will enjoy. I hope Autumn gives her readers more books like this one.

Let me start by saying, this is a one click author for me and ive loved every single thing she’s written. But this one, while its her writing style, it also wasn’t. I’m used to the character development and deep stories and this one didn’t do that for me.
Its very different and i’ve not read anything like this before. Dive into different fantasies and choose the door you like the most.

Hmmmm. How does one review this book? This is a novella that contains 7 short stories. Each story is a stand alone with a beginning, middle, and end. What they have in common is the narrator who introduces the story.

Each story is a “forbidden” tale that is meant to titillate and excite. An enjoyable quick read on a Friday night.

Forbidden (Tales of Passion, Lust & Betrayal Vol. 1) by Autumn Sand. Let me just say Autumn Sand is one of my favorite authors. This book is amazing. Its pretty short and pretty HOT! Its about a club named Forbidden which is an exclusive club. Not just everyone can get in. Neria is the hostess and there are 7 doors that you can enter that all lead to tantalizing pleasures that seem to get steamier and steamier as you progress. There are emotions involved as well that suck you in and of course the characters you come to care about. If you like Hot & Spicy reads then this is the book for you! Read Forbidden you won’t regret it!

WOW Forbidden is the first book in this erotic series written by Autumn Sand. This isn’t my first read by this author but I have to say she blew my mind with this book. I didn’t know if I liked or hated the book but it turned out I loved it.

Each chapter is with a different unique couple and their troubles in their relationships and sex lives. We walk through seven doors with forbidden pleasures and we don’t know what we are walking into because in Forbidden there are no rules.

I really enjoyed this story and I loved the strong woman and how they either put their men in place or just walked away from said men. I can’t wait to see what Ms. Sand has in-stored for us in her next installment.

Oh mylanta! This book is hot! So very hot. Now, it is obvious from the cover, and the name of the talented author that this will be a hot read, but I think it is probably underestimated. I loved that this book was a short and fast read. It sweeps you off your feet right away from chapter one and thrusts you into club Forbidden. Each trip behind the doors of forbidden pleasures will get hotter and hotter and leave you with a thirst for more. I was only disappointed when I had reached the end because I so badly wanted more. I will say this book being so quick of a read didn’t give you a lot on specific characters to invest in. It is more of a tease or taste of what the characters life entails. I like the lightness that this gave the read. It was a nice change of pace to have a bit of a mindless enjoyment for the afternoon. I look forward to seeing what forbidden sins await us in volume two.

Autumn Sand is one of my all-time favourite authors, I think I have read and loved every book that she has written so I was really excited to get started on her new release Forbidden! And as expected I was not disappointed at all – it was a short and sexy read which had me hooked from the very beginning. I think I was hooked from the moment I read the blurb! I loved the way the author decided to write this story it was really refreshing actually to read something structured differently. Her descriptive language was good and not too over the top for an erotic read! It definitely made you want to keep reading to find out just what is behind those doors that’s for sure!
Overall another fantastic read from this author and one that I would highly recommend! It is an erotic novel so I think readers definitely need to remember that when thinking about whether to read or not!

4 Stars

Giving any book by this author only 4 stars is killing me, she is literally one of my favorite authors of all time but I have to be honest when I say, this one just didn’t hook me like her books normally do and I had high hopes for it.

The writing was spot on as usual and the whole idea of the book was definitely unique. This is going to sound odd but it was almost a bit too steamy for me, not something I expect from this author. It could just be my mood and a second try would make a difference but even though I knew there were some things I wouldn’t like going in, it still was just too much I think for me right now.

This does not change anything about my feelings for this authors books, this is just not my favorite and I can’t wait for her next book. You really must read this book yourself.. There was a lot to love and on any other day I may have loved it LOL The writing is as always amazing.

Love this author!

Forbidden (Tales of Passion, Lust & Betrayal Vol. 1) by Autumn Sand – Review by Randall Murphy
The setting is unique and very intriguing from the very start. It wasn’t what I expected, but the presentation of the story made it more intriguing and erotic. There is definitely some erotic naughtiness, but there is also some intrigue, disappointment, and pain. The rollercoaster of emotions will have you reviewing how you look at things. It’s not all happily ever after, but there are some edge of your seat moments and several surprises in store. This book is a great bridge between the happily ever after romance group and the hardcore erotica group in how that it has a little of both, but doesn’t fit entirely in either category.

ForbiddenForbidden by Autumn Sand
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Forbidden is a tantalising, erotic novella from Autumn Sand. I have read several of her books over the last year or so and have become a huge fan of her writing. I would have read this book anyway even without reading the blurb as I’ve loved everything I’ve read so far, but the blurb made me REALLY want to read this book.
I love the way the book is structured, with the ‘narrator’ Neria introducing each story and teasing the reader as to their ‘reaction’ to each story.
There are 7 separate short stories, each described as being in a different room in a sex club for the reader to ‘watch’.
I don’t know how Autumn Sand did it but she threw in a curveball or twist to every story and I did not see any of them coming. Either I’m totally rubbish at guessing where a story is going, or the author has a very wicked, devious mind. I think it’s a little of the first and a lot of the latter.
Each story was uniquely different, although all had a very sexual content. If you are a bit of a prude then this book is not or you. You need to read this book with a very open mind. If you like a bit of erotica in your books then this is definitely the book for you.
A must read!

Forbidden by Autumn Sand is a quick and easy read. I read this book on a whim because it isn’t very long and it seemed interesting enough to me. As it turns out the book wasn’t really what I was expecting, and I don’t mean that in a bad way.
In this book you are at club Forbidden and there are “7 doors” readers enter and go through, each of these doors have different short stories complete with different characters and setting. Each door is unique to itself. Mostly all of the stories have some kind of steamy scene in them. Some of the stories will leave you feeling content and satisfied and others will leave you irritated. Some of the characters are loveable and some who are less than that. I finished this book in a few hours. If you would like to see what happens here at club Forbidden, don’t miss out on reading this book.

Forbidden (Tales of Passion, Lust & Betrayal Vol. 1) is such a sexy, steamy little story by Autumn Sand. It is a novella length book which makes it a very quick and easy read- albeit a very HOT and spicy read.
I was completely hooked right from the blurb- and I couldn’t wait to dive in. I loved the concept of club Forbidden and the seven doors that lead to all the tantalizingly tales of forbidden pleasures, that seem to get hotter the more we progress.
The book lived up to all my expectations, but it’s Autumn Sand, so of course it would. I really recommend diving in with an open mind and let the book surprise you. I also recommend having something cool on hand because this book is sizzling hot- you will need something cool to alleviate the heat wave these tales will induce.
If you like your stories on the spicy side, then this is definitely the book for you.
Five Red Hot Stars!

Thank you, Autumn Sand!

Forbidden is the first volume of the Tales of Passion, Lust, & Betrayal series. It is a collection of steamy short stories. I will be honest, the tone of the narrator in the hostess sections was not my favorite. I love the idea of the club and the doorways, but the narration really didn’t fit. I will give kudos for creativity though. The short stories are entertaining and cover a variety of scenarios to keep you entertained until the last page. I found this book to be a quick and easy read. It makes for a great bedtime reading experience.

It invites you to participate in the darker side of life and forbidden sexual desires. It is a short read and a very clever idea.

Your hostess Neria makes you feel like you are truly there, walking through the seven doors, each one more forbidden than the last, and watching the tales unfold before your eyes. This book contains well written, sexy scenes that do contain cheating, told in a unique and tantalizing way! Grab your copy of Forbidden, your favorite beverage, sit back, relax, and enjoy the show!
