BOOK SUMMARY
|
Jule Casale is the perfect daughter. Obedient. Trustworthy.
Loyal. With her high profile Italian family, her public image must be
impeccable. And now to gain the respect and position she’s desired in the
academic world, she hopes to discover the unknown artist behind a masterpiece
of Renaissance art.
Rom Montgomery seeks the unobtainable: forgiveness. Those
who could grant him relief are dead. Instead, he wanders across continents and
through time searching for salvation and the means to right an ancient wrong.
But when Jule comes knocking on his door, it’s the closest he’s ever come to
finally finding redemption.
The closer Rom draws to correcting his past mistakes, the
more his secrets threaten to destroy the woman who might hold the key to his
future.
MY THOUGHTS
|
I liked the world created by Shannon Leigh in which Rom was
trying to resolve an ancient wrong in a present day setting. It’s an
interesting depiction of the what-ifs of a classic romance and tragedy story with
a modern day twist. It was well-written and the backstory was nicely woven into
the story. Although some things were the same it still remained different.
I would recommend Forbidden Kiss for adults who enjoy
paranormal stories of tragedy and forbidden yet eternal love.
Rating 4/5
I received an e-arc of Forbidden Kiss from the publisher in exchange for an honest review.
