  1. Sauieh Noushin

    This is a short, dark, taboo novella.
    A Forbidden love between Lucy and Dylan.
    A dark past that gets worse by Tony.
    A BDSM club meeting that leads to HOT, DARK, TABOO sex.
    And a bloody family revenge!!!

  2. Cheryl Koch

    Another good, quickie read form Dani Rose. I like how caring but at the same time Dylan being a DOM. As a DOM it is not just about being in charge but also caring for the one that you are with. That is what Dylan does for Lucy. He understands what she needs and helps to give her a voice.

    While a short, quick read, there is a nice steamy scene. it is a good one. If you are new to Dani Rose, this would be a good novella to start with. You will enjoy it.

  3. Samantha Scaife Harris

    This was a fun and taboo read. A little lighter for this author but still dark for sure. I liked the way this fmc past trauma was explored, it was very honest.

  4. BetweenTheCovers

    This was a great forbidden step-sibling short read and hated it was over so quickly. I loved Dylan and Lucy and their taboo relationship. I am glad justice was served for Lucy from all the she had to endure.

    Please check the TW’s! This book was so good. Dylan the MMC was OTT. Lucy is so lucky to have him.

  10. darkromance1982

    This one is a step-sibling forbidden romance. After graduating Lucy agrees to work for stepbrother Dylan so move across the country to start over.

    We find out that bad things happened to Lucy when she was younger, she uses sex as her escape and that Dylan’s best friend Tony is a total sleaze.

    I like that Dylan realized that their was something wrong with Lucy and didn’t doubt her when she told him what happened. I also really like how he played Tony to get the best outcome for Lucy.

    Gotta love a step-sibling story when the parents only seem to care for about 2 minutes.

    As with all Emily Klepp / Dani Rose book check the triggers.

  12. Anice

    Yes to another great taboo read by Dani Rose.
    Lucy and Dylan are step siblings. And through the trauma she has been through as a teenager they have bonded. Dylan has always been there for her.
    This step sibling forbidden romance is a quick spicy read and the revenge for his best friends betrayal is bittersweet. And a very HEA. Yay.
    Please check TW before reading.
    I highly recommend this book.

  13. GlacierRose

    It’s a quick read with some triggers so be aware of that going in. It was a good read. Some may think its taboo but others might find it hot. Along side a side of BDSM. The characters are hot together.

  14. Theresa Murray

    Another fabulous dark and taboo novella in true Dani Rose style, A Forbidden Step delivers exactly what fans of edgy, boundary pushing romance are looking for. It masterfully blends multiple tropes into one gripping, fast paced story that keeps the tension, and the heat, dialed all the way up. This is a wild, spicy ride where the forbidden takes center stage and the villains ultimately get what they deserve. If you’re a fan of step sibling dynamics, touch her and die, BDSM, and a satisfying thread of revenge, this novella is a solid choice. It’s bold, unapologetic, and exactly what you’d expect from Dani Rose.

Dani Rose is a dark taboo pen name for the dark romance author, Emily Klepp. She is creating stories that make you question your morals and wonder why you chose to read taboo at all. Keeping separate from her usual trauma healing stories, this is the place where her intrusive thoughts run wild.
