I was lucky enough to be on the Beta team for this book and let me tell you it does not disappoint.

After that serious cliffhanger in book one, we pick up right where we left off with Tomas, Liv, Mia, and the rest of the Bennington Bunch.

I didn’t think it was possible but the drama was even more intense. I was sitting on the edge of my seat for a good quarter of this book.

Liv and Tomas are trying to navigate life now that their relationship is no secret. Mia has to decide what she really wants with Matt and something is up with Lex.

I promise you’ll devour this like I did.

This is the captivating sequel to S. Trout’s Forbidden Fruit, a forbidden romance, professor/student novel. Forbidden Obsession is so much more than the ending to the story, it’s a ride all of its own that left me in tears (the sad kind) and then more tears (the happy kind) along with disbelief, shock, anger, and all the feelings you want to experience when being captivated by a story!!! Releasing soon, go grab book 1 in time to read this on release day!!

Welcome back to Bennington University! Oh my gosh, this steamy little number was such a good read. I had the privilege of beta-reading this and it was freaking hot. If you loved the first one, you'll be hooked on this one too. You get to see characters develop, some more suspense, and truths revealed! Totally recommend!

gaaaaah! loved it!

I absolutely adore Liv and Tomas.
I can relate fully to this book as I am a TNBC survivor. My heart broke into a million pieces when Liv found out. I remember having that same conversation.
Forbidden Obsessions was packed with spice, longing, sadness. It was such a great read!

You will be obsessed!

This book is the sequel to Forbidden Fruit. You will see how Tomas handles the situation with Olivia and Vanessa and Olivia's family. This series is so worth the read!

The first 2 chapters suck. Like WTF was that in chapter 2. It was so unnecessary.
