Alexei

I’ve been a figure in her life for longer than I can even remember, and although I was married to her mother at one time, my feelings for Poppy have grown over the years. She’s smart and beautiful and knows what she wants in life. I shouldn’t want anything to do with her sexually: she’s much younger and we have a past. But I want her and screw anyone that says I can’t have Poppy.

I should be ashamed that I jerk off thinking of her, that I can’t even get hard with another woman. But I’m not. I’ll have her, one way or another, and damn the consequences.

Poppy

He was married to my mom at one point, been a person I’ve looked up to and respected. However, things have changed… I’ve changed. I shouldn’t want Alexei because of the history we share, but I’m an adult and have needs. And he’s the only man I’ve ever wanted.

This is wrong, taboo, but I am tired of being proper or appropriate when it comes to Alexei.

Sam Crescent

Sam Crescent is passionate about fiction. She loves a good erotic romance and so it only made sense for her to spread her wings and start writing. She began writing in 2009 and finally got that first acceptance in 2011 by Total-E-Bound.
She loved creating new characters and delving into the worlds that she creates. When she’s not panicking about a story or arguing with a character, she can be found in her kitchen creating all kinds of havoc. Like her stories the creations in the kitchen can be just as dubious but sometimes things turn out great.

Another A Taboo Short story and I liked it! It was a quick hot read.

The story was about Alexei, 38 and Poppy, 23.

Alexei was married to Poppy's mom for one year and it was over 4 years ago. She was not close to her mom and her mom had another husband.

They didn't see each other for a long time and when she needed money, she asked for his help. When they met again, they couldn't stop their feelings for each other and they never let each other go after that. There's also a very short but nice epilogue.

I liked the story but I know it's not for everyone especially to my safety gang friends.

self note:hmmm if he slept or did anything with her mom I'm not reading this.
Yes he did (nothing is said to confirm it) but he was married to her for a year,so I'm assuming he did! And because of that I cant read it. I just cant imagine her being with her stepdad who probably had his penis ,mouth and fingers in her mom! Lol I know too much thinking:)

Snow & Crescent took "Taboo" to a whole other level so what's taboo to some maybe just naughty to others! I like naughty best! lol

Alexei, Poppy's Russian ex-stepfather were smoking hot together in this quick read! Oh, did I mention Russian! And notice, I did say ex-stepfather which made the story great for me. Now I need to go back and read the rest of the books in this series for sure!

Meh. It was okay. Nothing too special. I like both of these authors so maybe the 'Taboo Shorts' aren't for me. I'm thinking if it had been a little longer and more background I would've liked it more. I mostly wanted a huge reaction from the mother bc THAT is actually the most taboo aspect of the story. I do think others will like it more so don't take my opinion to heart.

Awesome book if you're looking for a quick read where you do not need to keep your head in the game. No plot, just smut.

Former stepfather fucking the brains out of his fifteen years younger former stepdaughter.

A sweet jiller! Is there anything better than a man going feral for you on an ex and rewarding you in so many dirty ways?

Poppy has always had feelings for her Mother's ex-husband, Alexei and they're not the kind of feelings she should have for a father figure. The two of them were always close and he's always been there for her. Alexei was not at all happy when he was married to Poppy's Mother but he always liked Poppy and when she became a woman he liked her in a different way. When she comes to his office and asks him to borrow money he is instantly concerned because he hasn't heard from her in a while. She confesses to him that her ex-boyfriend hit her after she broke up with him and then he cleaned out her bank accounts. Alexei is furious and wants to kill the son of a bitch. Poppy wants Alexei now more than ever and doesn't realize he wants her just as badly.

Wow, that was hot! Alexei was Poppy's "stepdad" for a while, he was married to her mother. Poppy never really felt like he was a father figure. She has wanted Alexei for herself for a long time now. What she didn't know is Alexei didn't think of her as a daughter, he wanted her. Years after he divorced her mother, Poppy showed up needing help. Will they act on their feelings? Buy the book!!!

No me escondoo besties pero lo prohibido me encanta jajja sorry not sorry jaja.

Eso del ex padrastro y ex hijastra estuvo pepa. Quien diría que después del divorcio con su madre y una situación con un chico la llevaría a volver a verlo para pedirle dinero. Y para rematar terminan follando y después de un año con un bebé a bordo y una propuesta de matrimonio. Muy cute jaja.

Bueno estuvo en su punto 👌

Bueeee, de los 4 que voy leyendo de la serie creo que este es el más tabú porque ella fue su hijastra. NO la conoció desde niña, sino cuando tenía unos 18 años, porque menciona que en realidad se dio cuenta recién a los 19 que ella volvió a casa de la universidad, pero bueno. Tampoco estuvo mucho tiempo casado con su madre, solo 1 año, así que todo al límite, pero tampoco para tanto (?)
No está mal, es muy intenso y subido de tono.

Repugnante y nauseabundo. No estoy en desacuerdo con el tabú. Ese no es el problema aquí. Esto fue ejecutado tan mal y tan descuidadamente que ni siquiera es tabú, sino simplemente estúpido. Una historia plana con una heroína patética y desesperada, un héroe sin pelotas ni columna vertebral y, por último, un cursi final feliz. Qué desperdicio.

Know that right now, while I’m writing this review, I want to point out that I already forgot the story. LOL. So to say it didn't leave a mark is an understatement. I’ve read a lot of books over the weekend and this is one of them. The only good thing about it is it was short.

So yummy!

This book was so good it had everything I love a taboo love affair with a strong alpha male. Who wanted his woman and got her. And once he had her he made sure that she knew who she belong to. This was one hot sexy book.
