Fifteen American travelers have vanished Surrendering to a corrupt mayor’s demands, the devout Muslim and police captain becomes the reluctant keeper of his city’s bloody secret – and the witness, Eliza MacKay.
Captain Sharif is horrified to discover that if he exposes the cover-up, his family will suffer dire consequences.
Sharif’s only hope is to prove his government is free of guilt. Secretly, he hunts forensic evidence and discovers the shocking truth. Cornered by a CIA agent and hitmen, Sharif and MacKay run for their lives. Murder and kidnapping derails Sharif’s resolve to see justice served.
Sharif is tortured by his deepening passion for the impetuous Eliza MacKay in spite of her struggle with PTSD. Islam forbids the intimacy he craves. In desperation to save Eliza, Sharif initiates an act most forbidden and fatal.
My Thoughts:
So I felt the first chapters had a bit of a slow start, but I did like it, it had just enough action to keep me interested, The world building was definitely vivid, I did think that the characters needed a bit of work other than that this was a good read. Overall if you like action romance and suspense and don't pay an over amount to the little things like I do then you will absolutely love this.
Thank you so very much for taking the time to read Forbidden and writing a review. You're tops.
