Our agreement was strictly professional…until it wasn’t.
As an escort to the ultra-rich, I knew my place in the world. I’d mastered the art of blending in and keeping my true self—and my desires—hidden. When billionaire Eric Maxim hired me to be his date to an exclusive art show, I expected another impersonal arrangement. But Eric, with his piercing blue eyes and arrogant charm, was anything but ordinary.
Eric didn’t want complications. All he needed was a polished date for various events—not someone like me—a much younger woman who challenged him, exasperated him, and worst of all, made him feel.
Just as we were on the brink of something real, shadows from my past threatened to tear us apart. Would Eric and I find a way to overcome our fears and fight for the connection we never saw coming, or would doubt and betrayal destroy our chance at happiness?
Forbidden Desires is a steamy, age gap, billionaire romance about love, redemption, and finding the courage to truly be seen. One-click today to follow Jasmine and Eric’s story of love, betrayal and ultimately…happiness—HEA guaranteed!

“You’re very beautiful in this dress, you know,” I said, my voice low and husky.
“T-thank you.” Her words were breathless, and a pretty pink flush suffused her cheeks, as if she wasn’t used to such compliments.
As I continued to stare into her eyes, her lips parted, her chest rising and falling a bit more rapidly. Was it my proximity, or the unwavering way in which I looked at her?
I asked no questions because it didn’t matter. Instead, I leaned in, pressing my mouth to hers, kissing her openly where she stood. Jasmine melted into me, a soft groan in the back of her throat that I was all too willing to capitalize on. My tongue slipped between her lips, and my fingers tangled into the hair at the base of her neck, enjoying its silkiness from where it had fallen loose from her ponytail in between changing dresses.
“If you wanted them, I’d buy you every single dress you just tried on,” I said against her mouth before moving my head back a few inches to look into those soulful eyes again. “But I think with how much you like this one, I’ll just settle on making this a memorable experience. If you’ll permit me?”
Confusion flickered across her features, even as she nodded her consent to whatever I intended.
Holding her sultry gaze, I slid my hand down the front of her body, fingers trailing between her full, firm breasts, then over the beading on her stomach.
She licked her damp lower lip, her expression hesitant. “Here?” she asked, and I knew she meant here, this place, but I also couldn’t help but read here, where I was touching her, where I wanted to go lower.
“Here,” I repeated, letting my hand slip down to the hem of her dress. I pushed it up, and felt my dick harden at the first brush of my fingers against her silky, smooth thighs. “And here.”

My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Jasmine’s life was thrown upside down when she was 18. She was struggling with grief and found a lady who help her make something out of her life. She never thought being an escort would bring her the sort of stability she desperately needed. And just as she was thinking that she needed something new and more in her s life, she’ put in the path of someone like Eric.
He was older, sophisticated and his life was ruled by rules. Their time spent together brings them closer together and soon feelings they both thought wasn’t for them come rushing out in the open.
And just when you think things are going to turn out great, both their pasts come knocking, disturbing the fragile relationship.
And here is where my problem with this story is; I don’t like too much drama in my books. My eye rolling abilities are strong, and I was hoping that some of it would come in handy here, but instead she acted all grown up and took him back without so much as a proper sorry. The whole story plot was great, and I really like this story, but that ending felt a bit unsatisfying, not gonna lie.
