Jace is 6 years older and them 3 had a very weird family dynamic, after Farrah’s parents died he moved in to kind of help out. Heroine is the ‘little sister’ who lost a lot at a young age, only has her older brother who is very protective of her and JACE the hero. Yes there is a reason but still felt rushed.

And I do have a little downfall because of the actions through out the book the ending did feel kind of rushed. I say reverse because it did feel a little backwards at the end but there is a reason. This is a forbidden, brothers-best-friend reverse romance. I am going to try and not give out too much, after all I do spoiler-free review’s but this one it’s going to be hard not to blurb it out. Okay I have to say it but THE FORBIDDEN in this give me ALL. Not my first read by the author, I am a huge can and have read all of her books from beginning to now! The knowledge of that wasn’t enough to stop the inevitable, though.īut more than the physical attraction, we’d developed a strong connection. Still, I assumed he would never…go there. Like on movie night, I’d casually rest my leg against his, and he wouldn’t exactly shift away. I was pretty much hot and bothered twenty-four-seven. That was what made things so complicated. Living under our roof, Jace was as bossy and protective as ever.īut he certainly didn’t look at me like a sister anymore. It was just the three of us-an odd family dynamic. Jace had moved in with my brother, Nathan, and me to help us make ends meet after our parents died. He was six years older and always treated me like the sister he never had. And for as long as I could remember, I’d secretly wanted my brother’s best friend, Jace. It’s natural to want the one you can’t have.
