FORBIDDEN
What is there to celebrate when you turn 32, you’re still desperately single and thousands of miles away from home?
As Ashley contemplates her life, a lesbian stuck in the middle of the Syrian oil fields surrounded by more men than there is sand, a blast from the past brings with it the opportunity to rekindle old flames.
But what of the local chef, Iman? As she awakens to her sexuality, in a country where such love is forbidden, will her heart’s yearning be satisfied or forever denied?
Love knows no boundaries
“Once again, Emma’s writing style with such attention to the little details, took me on a trip to Syria where I sat back & soaked up the atmosphere I quickly found myself in. I walked in the shadows, watching events unfold, cried with Kate, Craig, Ash & Immy at times, & ultimately cheered at the end. Thanks Emma, for another classic read.”
“Absolutely loved this book other people’s views or beliefs don’t matter because love always wins in the end. Have loved all Emma’s books.”
“Once I started reading I couldn’t put it down. This book made me feel so much for all of the characters. They all had much to conquer in their respective love lives, especially Iman and Ash. Emma Nichols has written a very beautiful, gripping and emotionally charged book. I can’t recommend it enough.”
“I loved this book. I loved the characters, the setting. The author paints a picture of a culture that is in many ways oppressive, but she also describes the inherent beauty of the landscape, the food and the hope for change. The characters are well developed. It was truly a pleasure to read.”
