Story only had one rule: don't fall in love with the cruel prince. She broke it. When the clock struck twelve, she went back to being a servant. He promised to let her go with her heart in pieces...but Grayson Crowne always was king at breaking promises.
Story refuses to let Grayson lock her in a tower. She has no choice but to take the only out offered her - another cruel prince. Refuge in a man she loathes. Rescued from the man she loves.
Story wanted to forget Grayson, forget Crowne Hall, and hide, however fate has other plans. But if Grayson and Story are fated, then their fate is forbidden. Their happily ever after will only end one way...in a heartbreak.
I have been waiting to read Forbidden Fate since I finished reading the previously book in this series, Stolen Soulmate, the beginning of Grayson and Story's story. I remember not being able to put the previous book down and I thought that would be the same with Forbidden Fate but that was not the case. I just could not seem to get an into Forbidden Fate at all.
One issue I have with Forbidden Fate is that I went into this book thinking it was the conclusion to Grayson and Story's story but apparently that was not the case and there is yet another book that will be coming out. One major pet peeve I have with stories like these is when an author says a series will have a certain number of books in it, whether its supposed to be a standalone or a duet, and then the author changes it. It's always a change with more books not less and its times like this when I really think the author sees a series is popular and wants to capitalize on it. More times than not this does not work in the authors favor as the story loses something when they try to drag it along and adds information that does not necessarily have to be included. And that's exactly what happened here, there was not nearly enough happening in Forbidden Fate to have made it worth adding another book to this series. I could barley get through this book because it was all just useless information.
With that being said, do I want to continue on with this series and find out what happens next for Grayson and Story? I don't know and a one of the reasons is the price, the price was not worth paying for this book let alone paying the same price for this next book that I am already indecisive about.
Another reason being, nowhere does it state that this next book is the last one for Grayson and Story. What happens if I go into this one, not like it and then find out there's one more book to this series?
Overall would I recommend this series, no because as much as I enjoyed the first book I didn't enjoyed this second one at all. And again I don't think the price was worth this reading especially when you consider how hard it was for me to get through. It's weird for as many positive reviews I have seen regarding Forbidden Fate I have to agree with the few negative reviews I seen.
