Forbidden

By: Katrina Snow

Narrated by: Mary Jane Wells

Secrets too dangerous to share. Sorcerers too powerful to defeat. Desire too enticing to resist. Dive into this steamy Romantasy with an adult fairytale vibe.

Lady Katherine Durant has the kind of innate magikal powers most sorcerers dream of. Her uncle is no exception. The man has spent years pressuring Kate to use her gifts for his ruthless aims, but she wants no part of that.

When he invokes dark magik to trap her in his most terrifying scheme yet, Kate flees to a distant land where magik is forbidden and a royal festival is underway. She needs to hide her powers and figure out her next move, but gets thrown into the games instead—games that involve a devilish prince intent on making her life even more complicated.

Bachelor prince Bregovi Tennerelli lives to explore. Discovering new lands, cultures, and healing remedies fuels his soul like rain fuels the desert. Now, his father has cut off all funding unless Bregovi weds the winner of a spirited bride-finding contest. The king has invited nobles far and wide to compete, intending to secure a marriage alliance to help ward off sorcerers.

With no desire to settle down, especially with a bride not of his choosing, Bregovi comes up with another solution to the sorcerer problem. He will catch them. Then a surprising encounter with a bewitching maiden upsets all his plans.

Fantastic

I loved this book and the narrator hit it out of the park. I loved all the characters and their fun personalities and the narrator brought them all to life. I cannot wait for the next books in the series! I liked that I didn’t know what was gonna happen.

Great Story

Loved the novel, it was well written and kept me listening. Love love Mary Jane Wells, she is a brilliant narrator!!

Yes, more please

I followed a Mary Jane Wells trail and it led to this most wonderful story. I truly enjoyed the mix of historical, fantasy, and romance. Yay! Please say there is more coming soon.

So much fun!

This isn’t my genre - like others, I’ll listen to anything Mary Jane Wells reads. But I was pleasantly surprised! It was like an adult Harry Potter fairy tale. Really enjoyed it and will listen to again, which is rare.

Spellbinding!

I loved it! I was swept along the journey from beginning to end. The narrator was excellent in bringing all the characters to life! So good that I found myself giggling or laughing out loud on occasion. I also enjoyed the love story. Kate and Bregovi were perfect for each other. I couldn’t wait to get back to listening every day! Captivating!
