Short and Sweet

Forbidden Desires is a short novel full of passion and desire surrounding a love triangle. Michael Goody is a cop with a bright future in law enforcement. He is married to Carmen but his soul mate is the sexy, vivacious Renee Devine. Their love triangle begins when Carmen betrays Michael.

After Carmen’s betrayal, Michael tries to get his life back on track; he immerses himself into his new position within the police force and finds himself falling in love with Renee. What he finds as he moves through the ranks from cop to detective, is how confused he is about his feelings for Renee, because he still harbors love for his wife, Carmen. The reader is enveloped into the lives of these characters as they try to find love and desire over a span of several years. As his career advances, Michael learns some valuable lessons about life and love.

Forbidden Desires boasts some sexy, erotic and memorable sex scenes. It is one of the best parts of this novel. Christopher J. Lewis has an interesting novella type story. It is short and concise. If the reader keeps this in the context of a short story or novella, it is a wonderful read. As far as a novel, it has the potential to be expanded into a full-length story. The author sums up the gaps within the story with narrative explanations, which is fine except the reader sometimes wants to participate as the story unfolds. This is a quick read that will definitely keep the reader engrossed to the very end. If nothing more, the reader will get a nice little twist at the novel’s conclusion. This small novel packs a great deal into its 96 pages.
