There are many ways to describe the female anatomy. Sweetly creaming hole should never be one of them.

Well, let's see. This had semi-poor writing. The blurb was completely misleading. She wasn't "raging" over her cancelled wedding and the pregnancy was at the very end. Nor would I exactly call things forbidden. She wasn't engaged anymore when she hooked up with the dad and her fiance broke up with her because So, no, I didn't see anything forbidden.

Also big huge RED FLAG ALERT!

☠ The hero completely and in all ways touched the heroine without her consent. One: he hadn't said a word to her how he felt about her and he had no idea how she felt about him and Two: SHE WAS ASLEEP!!! Licking her nipple, putting his fingers inside her (even if she did orgasm in her sleep) is absolutely wrong. No, just no.

☠ Plus, he never told her he did it. Never apologized. I can't recall if he even said it was wrong of him to do it.

Other things to bothered me:

✘ The writing went from sexy to just bland in the book.

✘ The first sex scene was descriptive and sexy then every other one after that was closed door.

✘ The author actually used "twat" to describe the vagina. Come on, that is not sexy at all.

✘ The "extra epilogue" on her website went totally 180 and had anal happening.

✘ It was like two different authors wrote this book.

✘ The characters felt immature. The hero was 45 and the heroine 25.

✘ No clear indication if the h slept with the fiance. Kinda hinted but then kinda said they didn't. It was never clear.

✘ Characters were one dimensional and pretty boring

✘ Plus hero looked like a tool wanting to get the engagement ring back. I get that it was a family heirloom but it just came across as douchey.

The whole story was eye roll worthy, the internal dialog cringe worthy, the hero's actions were this side of illegal and the writing was bland with no heart. Pass on this author.

with this kind of premise, I expected steaminess up the roof...
instead, we have this dry AF storyline and bland characters with lots of stereotypes
not impressed at all, and I wouldn't recommend
don't plan to continue the series... even though it was short, I could have skipped it
at least I used it for a reading challenge...

DNF.@ 50 ish %

what the actual f*ck was this?! I should’ve read the reviews first :’( wasted like two hours on this.

besides the bland character, the writing was so bad I don’t think I could’ve continued reading even if the characters were okayish. one of their interactions she called him a “meanie” and that was the cringiest thing ever. I’m sorry I just can’t read about adult/ older characters acting like children.

*spoilers*

The part that made me DNF this is the fact that he sexually touched her (fingered her) while she was asleep. No consent. He didn’t even know if she was attracted to him. And he decided not to tell her the next day. wtf. He was very creepy and his POV was just red flags left and right. Her pov was boring asf and she’s a little too naive.

this book made me uncomfortable. these are just all my personal opinions/ how I felt about this.

Too many things about this didn’t work for me.


***Mild Spoiler Alerts***

Cora’s fiancé is acting strangely the day of their engagement party. Afterward he confesses he’s gay and in love with his bf, and they ride off into the sunset (with Cora’s blessing, basically).

I found Cora a bit too understanding about the whole thing. I mean, he couldn’t help being gay but he COULD help having lied to her (for who knows how long bc we didn’t get the details on the length or their relationship) and proposing when he knew his heart wasn’t in it. She wasn’t happy about it, but she wasn’t all that angry, either. I guess the author wanted us to feel that she was really okay about it so she could move on to his dad.

When Cora goes off to her family cabin to lick her wounds, her almost-FIL comes to retrieve the priceless heirloom engagement ring (and also because he has feelings toward Cora). Basically, what we get is a forced proximity romance where they’re trapped together due to a storm. That part of things was… fine. I wasn’t feeling much heat honestly. There was still a bit of that almost-DIL/FIL dynamic going on between them—not sure if that was a conscious effort on the part of the author to make it feel more taboo? And while we’re talking taboo, the author decided to sneak some unexpected somnophilic play in there where the hero violates her while sleeping—well before they’ve established a physical relationship with one another. Take that as you will.

Other criticisms:

I don't love when authors lean into gay stereotypes, and I don’t like it when they beat me over the head with descriptions of the main characters. How many times did I have to read about how handsome he was, with his blue eyes and black hair. Or worse, how Cora is just full of curvy curves with an ample ass and bosom. Every time the hero looks at her, he’s admiring her “full, womanly figure” or “full breasts” or “full hips.” Did the author think I was going to forget she was a curvy girl?

It’s just so unnecessary. I don’t need constant reminders of what the characters look like. I think a lot of readers would agree that after some initial description, less is more! We will fill in our own stuff and don’t need the repetition of words like slim, toned, muscular, curvy, full, ample, huge, tiny, voluptuous, whatever thrown in there all the time.

Overall, it was a quick, somewhat predictable read. I’d maybe try this author again if it was free but I wouldn’t go out of my way to look for it.

The blub of his one was super misleading not what I was expecting at all.

Clear issue around consent in this as well which had me frowning.

Slow and rather bland.

I know this book is supposed to be just fairly lighthearted fun, but I spent most of my time shaking my head. First, the beginning was borderline offensive with the stereotypes. The fiancee, Mary (Marky? Really? How old is this guy?) comes out to her and she should have known because he is specific in his compliments on her outfits but not her. And because he buys high end facial products.

“Honestly Marky? I’m not saying any of this to hurt you – I’m upset with myself maybe more than you. I should have asked you about why you’re so physically distant or how in the world you came to care so much about face creams and under-eye serums.

As much I admire Marky’s gorgeous looks and perfect skin, the man has a more complicated beauty regimen than most women. I’ve seen him drop hundreds of dollars on creams, masks, colognes, and hair products. His wardrobe is meticulous and full of perfectly cut blazers, bright polos, and Italian loafers. He loves fashion magazines and is always suggesting different outfit ideas for me. I’d always assumed his interest was just because he likes looking good, and that’s a positive, right? I could be dating a guy who wears sweats everyday and smells like a locker room.

So she goes to stay at her family cabin that she has been to many times before in her youth, but never learned how to start a fire. Storm rolls in and she starts a fire. With lighter fluid. And old newspaper. And, surprise! the fire gets out of control. So she goes to get a pot of water, not a fire extinguisher, to pour on the fire. But now the fire is so big that she is hot. So she takes off all her clothes and is down to her underwear, trying to put out the fire.

Our heroine is sleepy because fighting fires in your underwear and being slightly shocky are tiring, so the hero leads her upstairs where he then molests her in her sleep.

I'm going to stop here, but you get the idea.

It's one thing to have the age difference and taboo aspects of the relationship between an older man and his son's ex-fiance. It's another thing for the H to sexually molest the h when she is sleeping, even if her body did respond. Her unconscious response does not equal consent and I lost all respect for the H when he could not control his desires in that moment.

Oh and for God's sake the woman deserved a new ring!

Otherwise this book is ok, and likely would have received three stars from me.

Forbidden

Wow I can't say about this author! I have read many books by S.E Law and can they don't disappoint! So if you love forbidden romance with just the right amount of angst this book is it. A must read! I can't read them fast enough so I end up re-reading them and they are still just as good if not better. You can easily fall in love with the charters.

Having enjoyed Blackmailing My Dad's Best Friend by the same author, I decided to read this one next but unfortunately it missed the mark for me.

- Dubious consent
- The leads had no chemistry
- Angry Alpha Male trope ugh
- Overly far-fetched and contrived plot (not buying the whole ring thing)

Overall, the story felt dull and listless while also bordering on creepy. It's very different from Blackmailing My Dad's Best Friend, which I couldn't put down.

Also, does every book really have to end in pregnancy and babies to be considered a happy ever after? Nope.

A little slow

Not bad, a little bit slow in some places, but still a decent read. A girl and her future father-in-law lusting after each other. The end seems a bit rushed and the awkwardness of telling their families were glossed over.

Short and sweet, but not exactly spicy

My Fiancé's Dad weaves an intricate tale of the curvy girl who finally got the guy of her dream- her crush in high school, only to be dumped (for a very valid reason) after the engagement party.

Needing to escape and decompress, our heroine escaped to get family cabin in the woods. Upon arrival she promptly accidently starts a massive fire, but her ex's dad arrives to retrieve the family heirloom jewelery that was her engagement ring. He puts out the fire and then is stranded up there with her during a massive storm, setting the scene for the rest of the book.

Unfortunately, there is SO MUCH to the story that there are only 2 spicy scenes, and in all honesty that was a bit disappointing. I mean, they are in a cabin together, sharing a bed together, and the author has them doing the mundane stuff for days- reading, board games, puzzles- which leaves the reader wondering "is it ever actually going to happen?"

Cringy and forced

I picked this up expecting it to be cheesy but the story line was just uncomfortably awkward. The descriptions of her intimate being steamy and her twat like what?? The constantly descriptions of her chest made it feel like a teenage boy wrote part of it

Spoilers here **

Night one he can’t keep his hands off her while she sleeps then nothing for 4 days then suddenly they are a couple, atleast the author was honest their physical relations only lasted a few minutes at a time didn’t try to drag that out

She’s a smart girl who went to that cabin every summer you’re telling me she didn’t understand lighter fluid?? Very unlikely she knew to check the fire place for damage first….

They separate for 2 weeks but she knows she pregnant how would she know??

And of course we send with a cheesy proposal and pregnancy again

DNF @ 34%

Another book that's more tell than show. This one had an exciting premise. Taboo romance? Oooooh. That would be so hot, right?

Nah. Not really. The writing just wasn't selling it. I would have expected something like, "Our eyes meet across the room, and I shiver, the world falling away and narrowing down to his gaze. It's wrong for me to look at him this way, but I can't help myself." Instead, we get, "Matt is hot. Oops, he's my fiancé's dad. I shouldn't think that way."

Yeah. No.

It's the same from his POV, too.

Another thing that I hated? He called her "that curvy girl". Not to her face, but still.

We get it, author. She's curvy. You didn't have to freaking repeat it so many times like shoving it down our throat.

I hate giving novels zero stars but I have to with this one. Absolutely awful. The only good thing about this short story is that it is free on Kindle but it still feels like a waste of time. I love taboo romances but there is no drama in this. It feels rushed. There is no character development. The characters are one dimensional. There is no conflict that lasts. It's unrelatable and easily forgettable.

Midway through there is a sexual assault scene where the so called romantic lead fingers the girl while she is unconscious and it's treated like that invasion is swept under the rug. I hate romanticizing sexual assault. This story is problematic and ugly.

Will Cora get her HEA?

After the shocking revelation she decides to takes a little time to herself at her family's cabin, but ends up getting an unexpected visitor. Can Cora get her HEA with a different man? This is a great read and I highly recommend it!

Wonderful story by S.E. Law about a young curvy woman and her fiancé finding out that for reasons I won't mention they cannot be together, at their engagement dinner to boot!
The ex father-in-law has always been attracted to her but under the guise of getting the engagement ring back he follows her to her family cabin and things are on fire 🔥, no pun intended!
Spicy quick to read story that was very entertaining! 💘

First and foremost, I read this because I'm looking for something different to read. The premise of this one is a bit on the unusual side but I still decided to jump into it.

This is actually not taboo, on my opinion. It reads as a whirlwind romance with an age gap trope/theme thrown into it.

I love the chemistry between Matt and Cora. It was really great.❤

Some too convenient things happened along the way. The major conflict was brushed off at the end but I still enjoyed reading this.😅

If you're looking for a fun quick read with not that much conflict and an age gap, whirlwind romance, this one's for you.👍

A quick short story, but all the sweeter in the end. Couldn't ask for a better story with a couple twists. This was I was happy with it all. It doesn't seem like anything is missing in this story. I'm a bit behind in placing this review due to family things going on. But regardless I'm doing it now that I'm quickly catching up.
Cora is just a sweet girl with a great boyfriend who proposed to her. Only everything isn't as it seems in her world. And with the shi.. hits the fan, it's a roller coaster ride that Cora never wants to get off of. She'd prefer to stay on it in the very end if it can be so.

3 ⭐️⭐️⭐️ For the most part this is a sweet and steamy romance. There was a sex scene involving a sleeping woman who had not give consent before hand. I found that to be disturbing and triggering.
