Taboo Passions: Sylvia & Zach Paperback – March 27, 2015

While pseudo-incest is not one of the sub-genres of erotica that typically does not top my reading list, I occasionally happen upon a story of this nature that peaks my interest enough to give it a go. Taboo Passions: Sylvia & Zach is one of those stories. I read this work initially in serialized form having received ARCs of the 3 parts from the author in exchange for my honest review. While I personally felt part of the story was lost in serialized form, it was none-the-less a really great, well written story which prompted me to purchase and add the complete novella to my collection for future enjoyment. I find many pseudo-incest stories between siblings to be simply salacious for the sake of making a few bucks and the motivations for character involvement to be weak and implausible at best. Here the 2 principals are bound by a mutual distaste for one another that transitions as the result of a incidental occurrence, in the form of Zach witness his sister masturbating, that fundamentally shifts Zach's view of his step-sister, allowing him to see past the spoiled little princess he has been teasing and taunting for years and awaken to the re-visualization of his sister as a sexual object. Though initial recognizing the taboo nature of their involvement, the 2 ultimate embrace what rapid culminates in a profound attraction for one another and ends on a happily-ever-after that is open ended enough that there honestly could be more to tell should the author wish to revisit this naughty duo. Definitely worth reading if you have even the slightest interest in the genre.

Stepbrother Zach always teased Sylvia about her flat chest and her gymnastics, and they always wrestled and fought like siblings. But when he sees her pleasing herself, and realizes she's way more into it than most of his partners, he gets obsessed. One thing leads to another and curiosity gets the better of the both of them.There's a lot of buildup to the story, and lots of sexy foreplay! Definitely a must read if you like taboo stories!

Books 1-3 in the Taboo Passions series. These are short taboo stories although they were well-written, they were not for me.

This was surprisingly a well planned out storyline between step-siblings. I like how it had been two months after first watching his step-sister (accidentally) that Zach decided to pursue her as it gave time for them to somewhat feel each out in a realistic way of the remote control fighting. I wish Sylvia was given a little more awareness during that time as well. I felt the emotions were real...at least for teenagers and there was real buildup and not insta lust there. The ending was rather abrupt and I wish the author stopped describing it as incestuous because it's NOT as they are steps and have only been that way since they were 13 years old. I took off a star for that.

The sex and emotions between the protagonists are very good. If you like to read about twisted passions, this novella is for you.The characters are pretty much caricatures, but I still give this a passing grade.

If you are looking for a hot and naughty read then this one is for you. Getting a three stories in one volume is definitely a plus.

This is one of the best brother stepsister erotica I have read. It has a great emotional side and this is not one of those books where you wait until your 80 percent finished before sex enters the picture.

If you like the Taboo erotic reads then Zach and Sylvia will fulfill that fantasy. My first time reading for this author.
