I advise you to read the other books in this series for the background as well as a smoother read. I chuckled at times while reading this book and I also choked up at times.. I didn’t want to put this down. This book had my attention from the first page until the last page. I really hated when Sawyer was so cruel to Kenzie. I loved Sawyer and Kenzie together and how they interacted without the hatred. I did get annoyed with Sawyer at times. I loved the suspense and action. My heart broke for Kenzie with how much Sawyer was cruel and hurt her. I loved the characters and the ins and outs of this book and I highly recommend it.

Forbidden temptation by rl kenderson.
Since one fateful evening at a nightclub, Kenzie Swanson and Sawyer Lennar have shared an undeniable attraction. They’ve had moments where they couldn’t ignore their desires, succumbing to their needs, and Sawyer has marked Kenzie in a way that no other man can.
A really enjoyable read with great characters. Really enjoying this series. Loved how sawyer and kenzie were with each other.
I really enjoyed this book. I loved the characters. Love this series and I'm looking forward to next one. 5*.

Human, Mackenzie (Kenzie) Swanson, and cat shapeshifter, Sawyer Lennar, were kidnapped by mistake and were able to escape their kidnappers and hide out for a while. Sawyer hated humans so when he got amnesia from a blow to the head and his personality changed for the better, Kenzie was grateful for small favors. In the past, he was downright cruel to her, but now he was sweet and accommodating. How long would this last, why did he hate humans so much and why did she let him mark her?

Cat shapeshifter and female sentinel, Phoenix Kaplan, was drawn to vampire and Guardian, Dante Leonidas, after he saved her from a dire situation. He had once fed from her which had embarrassingly resulted in her first ever orgasm. She was a she-cat and seemed to not like sex, but he would die before letting her get hurt. Why does a vampire make her feel so safe?

Vampire and Guardian, Lexine Harlow, didn’t understand why Dante liked a shifter who dressed like a homeless man and had a surly attitude. She had been in love with him for five years. She disliked the cat-shifter, and she deserved to be with Dante. Will her new friends help her make her wish come true?

This is story three from Kenderson’s Forbidden series and even though I haven’t read the first two stories in the series, this one stands on its own. The humans, cat-shifters and vampires are well-developed and interesting characters. It was an all night read for me which is a great compliment to this book. A definite must read, and I plan to read the other stories in the series!

"Forbidden Temptation" is a strong shifter romance with a solid plot. Kept me reading.

'Forbidden Temptation' by R.L. Kenderson is Book Three in the "Forbidden" series. This is the story of Kenzie Swanson and Sawyer Lennar. I have read the previous book and feel this is not really a standalone book. It can be, but to fully enjoy their story you should read the previous books.
Sawyer doesn't care for humans but he is having a hard time previously fighting his feelings for Kenzie. But they were kidnapped and this is where this book opens to them escaping and Sawyer being unconscious and drugged. This has left Sawyer without his memory of who he was and this Sawyer is a different acting person than the old one. But he and Kenzie are still on the run from the people that are after them. But can this open Sawyer to let his guard down with Kenzie and maybe get their happy ending.
