Publisher's summary

I’m living the life I’ve always wanted. The only thing holding me back is something I’ve kept hidden for so long that I barely understand it anymore.

Kieran

I’ve worked hard to get to the top, and now that I have the life and career I want, nothing is going to stand in my way. Becoming the golden child in an up-and-coming legal firm is no small feat, and I’ve got my sights set on the future.

Unfortunately my bosses have other ideas. They’ve been watching me more closely than I realized. I know they have my best intentions at heart, but they’re interrupting my plans.

The company I work for makes sure their employees take care of themselves. After a few failed attempts at stress management, they’re packing me off to a retreat specializing in difficult cases. If I want to keep my job, I have to go.

I was expecting a few weeks of shallow introspection and meditation. What I didn’t expect was the same loneliness and isolation as I felt in the real world, or that I would make a friend like Cole.

Cole

Kieran doesn’t know the retreat I work for is much more than talking about feelings. Our kind of healing reaches back in time, digging out long-buried secrets. When the truth comes out, the change he discovers will cause him to reevaluate his entire life.

Torn between the world he’s forged for himself, and the one he’s found in Cole’s arms, Kieran will have to make the hardest choice of his life, or risk losing everything. Will he be able to step up to the challenge?

Forbidden Instinct is a standalone, gay shifter romance featuring deep secrets, steamy encounters between hot shifter men, and a few rounds of Kumbaya.

This sexy gay romance is best enjoyed by those over 18 years of age.

An interesting psychological storyline

I started listening to this audiobook and after an hour thought ‘this story isn’t going to be very special’. But right then and there it picked up itself and whirled me through pack land in a tale of a shifter who didn’t know he was one. Interesting perspective. This is what I respect in great authors: that they can katapult me into their story and make me listen and love it.i love strong MCs, I love a solid story, which means there must be one and I should become emotionally involved, l experience the events through the eyes of the MCs, the story that the author wants me to feel through the characters he sees in his mind’s eye. That’s it. I’m happy. And Mr. DeVille was masterful in this. ❤️

Great listen.

This is another great listen to Noah Harris story. I love Kieran and Cole's story. I just couldn't stop listening and A.L. Deville did a great job with the narration. He brings this story to life.

Kieran and Cole

I loved seeing past characters Apollo and Artemis back for more fun. Great world building and secondary characters kept the storyline engaging and interesting. Self discovery and opening up to love!! sighs!! I enjoyed Kieran and Cole's story. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a great job bringing it to life.

Forbidden instinct

At first I hated it but then realized that the story wasn’t hideous. The whole time I felt like I was being read to. It made it very difficult to focus on the story.

Finding love sometimes takes finding yourself

Kieran is a hot shot, New York lawyer, climbing toward the top of his firm. But before he gets there, he's told that he has to find a way to deal with stress and self control. Sent halfway across the country to a retreat in the woods, he finds out more about himself than he EVER imagined. And when he does, life and love as he's known them before will never be the same.

Thank you for the ARC

Thank you for the ARC audio, I voluntarily give this book an honest review. The narrator did a fantastic job of the characters.
Kieran's boss's sent him on a job of discovery only at the time it more of a chore to him. From Martin to  Artemis and Apollo. Leading hi to self worth and things he was denying himself. Meeting Cole made him reach for more then just a high life as a lawyer but more. He could have love and happiness too. I just loved this story, it was moving in the best of ways.
