I can't believe what I'm saying but I kind of liked Weldon here. He's patient with Jake and doesn't want to hurt him. I was all like "what?! wasn't he supposed to be the bad guy here?" Well he surprised me, that's all I'm admitting right now. He's still hard to read and maybe he won't change so much. I don't really know what to expect. I mean, I really thought he'll manipulate Jake's young mind (19) and he'll make him say yes when he really didn't want to say it.

It's not dark enough. For now. So if you do grab this series, make sure to keep reading. Or it won't make an impact. Not for what you're looking for.

It's hard to believe Weldon changed his heart for Jake. And it's also hard to believe he just changed his life completely, out of the blue .

I just need to get ready for what comes next, because I can feel it won't be pretty. I just hope Trey will help somehow and not make it worse. I'm not sure I want him to fit in here, but I can only hope it will end well for Jake.

Review by The Blogger Girls.

And, just when you think you know where the story is going…it goes down a totally different path. We find out more about Trey right off the bat, and I totally didn’t see that coming. Jury is still out on him, though I think he may have just as many, albeit different, issues than Weldon.

When we left Jake, he was not in good shape, to put it mildly. The story picks up as Jake is taken to the “company” doctor for fixing. While it first appeared there was nothing but more torture in store for poor Jake, things change direction a bit. I won’t say more so as to not give away any of the “fun” twists.

This segment was a little bit different than the first in that there were small jumps in time; we didn’t get to see any in-depth activities at the hands of Weldon and his goons, but that’s probably a good thing. What we did get was more character development and plot twisting where people you thought were bad might not be so bad, and those you thought were good or were pinning your hopes on, might not be the safest bet after all.

Time will tell, and I’m super excited to see what Mr. Kol comes up with next, as I’m sure he won’t let us off that easily, and it’s a pretty strong bet that he has a few things up his sleeve for the next installment.

Shall I start with the cursing and then continue the review....?

The amazing thing with this story is you'll be thrown back and forth rational and up and down emotional.
Interesting guy this Weldon you could almost like him... no no....did I said that out loud? Sick girl...
Jake......Jaaaaakhh *crying* *bawling*
Trey .... disappointing shittertheshit
Again Weldon damn.. I think he has two heads, a sort of Jekyll and Hyde.... just guessing
And where are daddy and Colton? So much to come....or was it cum....

The different pov works very well. To see it through the villains mind is very satisfying, I can't help it. You always get to view a rogue through other eyes or opinions and now to taste his feelings and motivations does just concretize it.
The absolute power......damn.... Only is everything as it looks? I must say... i don't think so....

I think the cards are turning.
Only I'm afraid to believe my eyes.....as mind-fucked as this author's stories always goes
I'm will not try to fill this in and just patiently (read:*tap tap impatient*) wait for book 3
Great piece of work.... I loved it!!

When the master of MM angst sets the tone for a new series with an explosive first instalment, then gives you the best WTF follow-up that foreshadows so many daFuq moments to come, what else can you do but revel in the braingasm that follows?

Kol again manages to bring in tenderness and contrast it with a mad obsession with power his characters struggle with. It's a juxtaposition few authors are able to contrast as well as Kol has managed to do over the years. There are literary moments of brilliance scattered throughout book 1 and book 2 of Taboo, and I hope we'll be treated to more in the upcoming releases.

A part of me feels bad for Jake, but a bigger part of me...envy him? I'm just as confused by that statement as anyone who reads this review would be, so don't look to me to shed any light on that.

Maybe it's the point, after all, Kol loves delivering a mindfuck, and he consistently delivers. Thank you thank you thank you for sharing your talent with a world desperately in need of it.

Please carry on

Signed

Book two in Kol Anderson's Taboo series is definitely the mind fuck of all four I've read in the collection. If you venture into Taboo you will need to read them in order.

The story begins with Jake recovering from his abuse and Weldon revealing his plan to completely own Jake, body and soul. Weldon is human, almost boyfriend material (fly, meet the spider), and beautifully messed up. Initially driven by his desire for ‘power’, Weldon is conflicted by the depth of his unexpected reactions to Jake.

Weldon has all this interesting baggage with his family and we get to see him interacting with his sister and dad. Unbelievably I found myself really liking the seductive bastard in this one. Weldon is showing his complexity, his duality, and the author has lain the groundwork for amazing things to come.

"Are you truly lucky if you feel something more than desire?

Love and desire have always been connected… Fucking is the most intimate, most personal thing you can do. Fucking changes everything."


Weldon is starting to unravel and the scene at the end with Jake, well, fucking does indeed change everything.

I almost wish I didn’t know what was coming next for Jake, but I am sure the delicious mess that is Weldon can only get more intriguing.

Kol Anderson is building a dark and intense story. If you want to delve deep into the mind of some crazy then you’ll love the Taboo series.

The next installment in Kol Anderson’s Taboo series is here! Now, when Vol 1 ended we were all like, “Ahhhhh OMG OMG, JAKE!” We were left feeling dread and hopelessness….Remember? We met quite a few characters. The main three seem to be Jake, Trey, and Weldon.

In this one it took me by surprise. I was expecting the worst environment imaginable. More depravity! Right? I mean it IS KOL! But no. This was a shockingly calm and almost sweet story. Which only terrifies me more because that means it’s all calm before the storm. I’m freaked out about Vol 3.

We see a side to Weldon. He actually has FAMILY! He has a nephew and a niece. We learn that Jake is known by his sister. But the mystery grows as well. Who is Jake to Weldon? We also know Trey knows the story….. I’m so curious.

This is a very intriguing series and I’m desperate for more.

Ok.. I'm completely in shock..dumbfounded...confused as hell...heck I don't know exactly how I'm suppose to feel. Like I'm pretty sure this was a KOL ANDERSON book. He definitely has me asking WTH? I would honestly have to say Kol is building this story slow and steady. I am so excited to see just how far and deep this one will go. Taboo, book two is all about our villain.

This one really gets in depth with Weldon. We get some family and we see that he can function as somewhat normal. We also become a reader with lots of questions about Weldon's past relationship with his father. Do I still think he is the devil himself...YES INDEED!!! Kol manages to give us poignant clues throughout the story that he is still psychotic.

Jake is just starving for positivity in his life and Weldon is playing the manipulation game brilliantly. Trey is experiencing everything from deep concern for Jake to down right desperate jealousy over Weldon and Jake.

This is a very twisted but intriguing plot so far. I know we can expect much more intensity with these three characters as this tale continues. I know I'm holding on tightly because if I know anything about Mr. Anderson's writing it's going to be a very raw, jaw-dropping, cursing, fiery read before this story is told. I would most definitely say read Taboo, book one and the dive right on in to this one...but hold your breath cause I have a sneaky feeling Kol Anderson is just getting started!

I had no clue this book was going to be a mini series. Had I known that first... I probably wouldn't have started it. I'm not a fan of never ending series. The only reason why I'm reading the second book is because I bought the first and second book together.

As for this books itself (1&2). I really enjoyed it. I wish it was a full length book!
I would like to know how it all ends. I'm really rooting for Trey!
I'm not sure about Weldon. But I know for sure I want him to die a horrible death! LOL

I will only read the rest of this series if it comes out as a already finished bundle.

Hopefully I won't have to wait that long. It's just a shame that this book is a series.
And hopefully it will be up on Amazon. I really don't like buying my books anywhere else.

Well damn....I don't know what to make of this one....I mean Weldon seems nearly normal to Jake and is treating him almost like a real boyfriend....I'm thinking his darker side will come out to play again but what is in store for Jake....I really want him to not get attached to Weldon and that Trey can help him get out of there.....Because I really think deep down he doesn't want to be there x

Weldon's a seductive bastard and I found myself really liking him in this one. The scene at the end with Jake... wow.

Fucking is the most intimate, most personal thing you can do.
Fucking changes everything.


Yeah, and changes everything for Jake too...

Weldon has all this interesting baggage with his family and we get to see him interacting with his sister and dad. I hope we see more of this side of him again soon.

I feel worse for Jake in this book and I almost wish I didn't know what comes next.

REVIEWED FOR PRISM BOOK ALLIANCE

4.5 Stars

Frustratingly short once more and the almost a 180 in Weldon’s behaviour is just creepy! Does anyone else agree?

Kol always makes his brutalised MC’s appear soft to the reader making the subsequent abuse seem that much worse. Jake didn’t live a life that was flowers and roses by any stretch of the imagination but nor did he know such pain and depravity. But just as suddenly as he was damaged his abuser’s behaviour changes once again and you can’t help feeling nervous and wondering whether it’s the calm before another storm.

Still no sign of his brother. I’m amazed and slightly pissed off that his father that his father is still alive. Where does Trey fit into all of this? Also, where is Zach and what is his role? So many questions Kol – so many dilemma’s and the only thing guaranteed is that you are going to fuck this poor boy up some more before there is any relief!

Bring on part 3.

It was nice, but I just didn’t liked it as much as part one. I guess it felt like something was missing. It sure wasn’t a sweet book, but there was some dark elements, so well made in the first part, that just wasn’t present in this one. The tension was definitely at a lower point, which was a bit of an issue for me, because I remember I was unable to put the book down the first time, and I didn’t get the same feeling this time.

Welman didn’t seemed like the same person, there was some human side of him that I just didn’t wasn’t to see. I want to hate him, I really do. But I think there was some events that were put there to make him more sympathetic, and I just don’t want to like him, I don’t right now and I just don’t want to go there.

Jake, I don’t know, at the beginning he was just the amazing, I loved him so much and got very protective towards him, but as I kept reading, something change in him. He just felt different. As for Trey, he just seemed unimportant, I couldn’t care much for him.

I just don’t know. I want to love this story, but it was so different. It also felt a little rushed Maybe if it would have been a bit longer the relationships might have developed in a more realistic way. Right now, I’m just not believing any feeling from any of the characters. Still, I’m very intrigued for what it might come next and I have no doubt I’ll keep reading the next instalments on this series.

Fantastic again. ....
I think there is so much more to Weldon then we're seeing. Yes he's dangerous twisted, powerful, cruel and cold. Alot of this "act" is for the outside. I think Jake is seeing the real weldon, and that scares him. . Jake, although scared for his life, the pain and cruel damaging things that were done to him, broke him some, but I think he is sees more of Weldon. I don't think Kol has even touch the surface with him, I believe there's more to him. Why was him obsessed with Jake? People knew before Jake was even there?
I Need more!!!! AWESOME

I just want this to be all in one place. Not a million short stories! I like it a lot, but the fact that they're not all bundled together makes me want to just drop the whole thing.
