"Where will you hide, doll?" His deep raspy voice resonated in an empty dark classroom.
Her heart thudded in her ears. Her feet involuntarily moving back, shoulders shrinking in fear as he took threatening steps towards her like a predator.
"N-no..." She stuttered, chin wobbling lips trembling. The certainty of her being alone in the presence of this beast-like man had her legs going jello.
Emma was scared. So damn scared. "You can't deny me Belle. I'm your mate. You're fucking mine!" He growled lowly.
This book had so much potential, but then she ruined with that unnecessary and tragic storyline at the end. It had some taboo moments, like teacher and student, but other than that it was okay. There were so many times the story could have ended or could have taken a different direction, but she just poured gasoline on it and lit it on fire for no reason! Omg! I’m only giving it a 3 star rating because I objectively liked a huge chunk of it. I want to give it 1 star out of spite though.
I’m still mad thinking about her introducing this storyline just to randomly kill people! Ugh
This entire review has been hidden because of spoilers.
Emma is alone in the world at just 17. The bullies make her life hard at school. When the new math teacher takes over he's scary but everyone respects him. Emma is no longer invisible. The teacher wants her in all the kinkiest ways. Whatever will she do?
Sinful Temptation by Kathleen Hayat is a forbidden romance. Emma Belle Richardson is a smart human 18-year-old student who is treated as an outcast in her school. Xander Colt is her Math teacher who is secretly an Alpha werewolf.
Emma is mocked for her body shape, her brains, and her quiet demeanor. She prefers solitude and often finds an empty classroom to have lunch in rather than go to the cafeteria. Despite being “a nerd” she and math don’t get along, which I find weird. After all, the stereotype often is a high proficiency in most, if not all, academic subjects, where math and science are usually where they excel.
Xander is undercover as a math teacher in Emma’s school. In reality, he is a werewolf and an Alpha of a powerful pack and his enemies think he is dead. As math teachers go he really knows his stuff but looking at him “math teacher” is the last thing you would think. He is tall, good-looking, muscled, and looks like he should be walking the runway. As the girls would say … he is a god!
Their worlds collide when Xander actively seeks out Emma in school, seemingly bullying her. I’ve heard of students bullying other students, but teachers?
Xander can’t help himself. While he isn’t the nicest person, he is inexplicably drawn to Emma … especially since discovering that she is his mate. Since Emma is human, she feels a strong attraction to him but does not recognize the mate bond. All she knows is, she is his student and what Xander is doing is wrong and taboo.
Their relationship starts off rocky and continues to be so until the truth is revealed and acceptance happens.
From the way the author writes, I can tell that English is not her first language but I can forgive the faulty grammar and incorrect idiomatic expressions when the story development is engaging … I still wish she would get a good proofreader or editor, just to make the book even better.
