He made the choice between the life he wanted and the woman he loves. Just not in the way I’d hoped.
Now I might never see him again.
In an instant, my life is turned upside down. I’m no longer who I thought I was…and I no longer know who to trust.
Max has rescued me from the depths of my despair before. Now, if I can find my way back to him, I want to do the same–because both of us know the truth, no matter how hard we try to fight it.
I’m his obsession, his temptation, his salvation–and he’s mine. With both of our worlds devastated, there’s no point in running from it any longer.
Prepare to be captivated by the sensational world of M. James, the mastermind behind a genre-defying realm of romance and intrigue. With a pen dipped in passion and a heart that beats to the rhythm of forbidden desires, M. James weaves tantalizing tales that will leave you breathless and yearning for more.
Follow her to the dark side where strong heroines fearlessly navigate treacherous paths and damaged heroes find solace in their darkest corners. Her words will wrap around your senses like a seductive embrace, transporting you to a world where love and danger dance a wicked tango.
M. James resides in the suburbs of Chicago but lives for the big moments that make life interesting. Although writing brings her passion and darkest fantasies alive, watching suspenseful thrillers with her two dogs and loving husband brings her excitement in the most exhilarating way. Nonetheless, getting lost in a dark mafia romance along with a tall glass of wine makes any day a bit juicier.
From enemies to lovers to forbidden romances, M. James' stories of passion, intrigue, and betrayal will keep you hooked until the very end. If your appetite craves the intoxicating prose of Rina Kent or the allure of Sophie Lark, prepare to be entangled in M. James' captivating new series. But be warned, dear reader, for her world is not for the faint of heart. It is a world where inhibitions are shed, and inhibitions are tested. It is a world where passion reigns supreme, and where the pursuit of love can ignite a blaze that consumes all in its path.
I wish there was an official epilogue of sorts!! I’m a big epilogue person. But also I was kind of hoping to get some Levin and Natalia?? Give this man justice 😭😭😭
3.5 stars I certainly looked forward to this conclusion of Max and Sasha’s story. And it was a good and engrossing tale. But, sex scenes that are almost a chapter long? For a priest, Max wastes no time once he commits to loving Sasha. I thought they were so long and so many as to become boring. I think I’m glad that Natalia will get her own story. She was a surprise character, in a good way. Pretty sure, as with previous trilogies of M James, this could have been a duet. There’s lots of repetition in thoughts for both main characters. And as above, far too many and far to long, sex scenes that cease to be sexy after a while.
Finally, we get to see the amazing conclusion to a Max & Sash’s love story. This has been an epic slow burn but it was worth every page. M. James has blown it out of the water with their amazing story. There is so much passion, devotion, sacrifice, and love that you will devour every page of this final book in their trilogy. These two characters have been to hell and back without ever giving up on their hopes for a future. Max’s tortured soul and Sasha’s fierceness is no match for what the world has to throw at them. This book is very powerful and full soon you will not be disappointed, as if we ever are with James’ books but this one is all heart! Watching them overcome so much and finding their way is so powerful and empowering. These are my two favorite characters from her interlocking series and Max & Sasha are by far the most lovable characters. This story is so full of drama and joy that you won’t be able to stop until the last word. So powerful and beautiful you will thoroughly enjoy their story and their foundation is so solid. You will not be disappointed. Happy Reading!!!
We get the rest of their story. Max's recovery. Sasha's imprisonment. Max's attempt to save Sasha. Them on the run. A final ultimatum with Max's brother. The culmination on their safe haven leading to their future.
There aren't many love scenes in this book for obvious reasons. But we do get the reminiscing of previous scenes and once together a few more very sensual and beautiful scenes.
There are a few mistakes with the wrong spelling of a name or word. But you know who they are talking about. Natalie is Natalia.
I do wish that we got a time stated in the last chapter to know how long before the 'event' especially that so many important people weren't there. I also think that when Sasha was rescued there should've been a Dr at the safe house. She was sick in captivity and imprisonment and then better all the sudden. Also, with the end of the book you know that's why she was sick so there should've been a scene with her and him finding out and having to discuss it especially that it was NEVER in Max's future and Sasha didn't know. It would've made for a poignant moment in the book and relationship.
The Forbidden Trilogy by M. James concludes with Forbidden Forever. This final book in the series creates a very worthwhile ending to the Sasha and Max saga. You will not be disappointed though your senses will be kept in limbo to the very last page!
