Forbidden Flavors

7 Spicy Scenes

Part of the Home for the Holidays series—three sex-positive college roommates, three winter break stories, three unforgettable journeys of desire and discovery.

Forbidden Flavors is a spicy Non-Traditional Multicultural romance that blends new adult self-discovery with polyamorous-adjacent relationships, power exchange, and the complexities of ethical non-monogamy.

Featuring an age-gap romance, an open marriage, group dynamics, and a fierce Latina heroine fighting for her community, this story serves up explicit heat alongside authentic family drama and social justice themes.

When 21-year-old pre-law student Sofia Ramos returns home to Savannah for winter break, she expects the usual chaos at her family's Puerto Rican restaurant. What she doesn't expect is to become entangled in a web of corruption, desire, and self-discovery that will change her forever.

Between helping fight corrupt city officials threatening her family's livelihood, navigating an asylum case for a beloved friend, and reconnecting with Teo—the sweet busboy she's known since childhood—Sofia finds herself drawn into a world of passion she never imagined. When she meets Alex and Naomi, an interracial couple with an open marriage and deviant appetites that match her own, Sofia discovers dark desires she didn't know she possessed.

Features a Happy-For-Now ending (HFN) as Sofia returns to college with new connections and experiences that will continue to evolve.
