- Reviewed in the United States on October 18, 2017A Forbidden Affair was the first book I've read by Kizzie Darker. OMG, it was amazing. The chemistry between Matthew Lockhart, a married man that has had a hard time dealing with his wife cheating on him with not only his own brother but a few others as well and Ruby the landscaper that his wife has hired to redo the gardens of their Mansion is undeniably hot. After meeting Ruby he realizes that he may never have truly loved Erica at all. Ruby has tugged on his heartstrings and brought him back to life. A must read to follow their story and see where it all goes.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 12, 2020I don't where to begin with this review - the book was such a mess. From the very beginning wrong words are used and phrases are repeated. The story had no flow at all - one thing happens and never finishes telling the rest before moving on to something else. There is an age gap which is fine but both Matthew and Rudy are very immature for their ages. Most of the things written in this book was just unbelievable, making it a struggle to even finish the book. The ending was just ridiculous and ended in a cliffhanger.
On a positive note - I give authors a chance to redeem themselves, I don't let one bad book dictate if I will read any more of their books, so I will read book two ( A Sensual Attraction). You never know if this was their first book or first book with this type of storyline, so you have to give them a chance.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 3, 2017I gave this love story three stars because of the many repeated words throughout the book. The story itself is very good. There just wasn't a good flow.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2019This book is okay for a new author but it does have some holes in it and not completed action by the characters, they are small but I believe important. It is a cliff book so be warned. It's a great length and reasonably written.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 26, 2018One of my favorite books to date! Kizzy has outdone herself again!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 18, 2019Although the title of this story sets the tone for Forbidden Affair, you don't expect the twist and turns this story takes. Matthew is drawn to Ruby and can't help but want to be with her. She is at his home at the request of his wife to do a job. How will this end?

- Reviewed in the United States on June 23, 2019I truly hate leaving “negative” reasons but I have to be honest. This book didn’t work for me at all. I didn’t enjoy the writing style.
It’s an insta-love story between landscaper ruby and her clients husband.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2019Slight Spoilers. Affair is right. I am not a reader who refuses to abide cheating in a book; I only ask that the reason for cheating is a "good" one (if such exists). The H and h were madly and uncontrollably in love within hours of meeting each other. Insta-love is fine too, but again, these two had no reason whatsoever to feel such unquenchable passion in the given time frame. The catalyst for me giving up is h abandoning her work, completely, for a few moments of time with H. She was supposedly dedicated to her work, and longed for recognition in her field. Blowing off the biggest job of her life for a roll in the hay with her client didn't scream I love my job. For me, there was no emotion. I won't be returning to this story, and I doubt I'll read more.

5.0 out of 5 stars really good read.
Kizzie Darker is a new author to me but have to say i will be reading more of her books.
this books from the start makes you love the characters and go on there journey with them falling in love.
i also love how the age difference was explored in this book it shows age really is just a number when it comes to who you fall in love with. this book ended on such a cliff hanger i can`t wait for book 2.

5.0 out of 5 stars So worth reading
Loved the book it was great the story was well written and the characters were interesting. Matthew's wife organized the garden landscaped so Ruby went around to look and that is when Matthew and Ruby had instant attraction. Matthew is in a loveless marriage with his ex, Ruby made him feel things that he thought was gone.
Thank you for allowing me to review this book it was great.

The story was quite boring
- KM LoweReviewed in the United Kingdom on April 10, 2020
4.0 out of 5 stars Okay!
This is the first book I've read by this author. I had no idea what to expect, but from the cover alone I expected a sexy, erotic type of novel. It wasn't, it was an Insta love. Very Insta love. I can't say that I liked Matt, he come across as very arrogant at the beginning. I understood why he behaved the way he did towards his wife, but he could have ended it all, so I didn't like that side of him. However, when he was with Ruby, we got to see the true Matt. The devoted, attentive Matt.
Ruby was young, impulsive, and quite childish at times. However, her and Matt seems to compliment each other well, considering the age gap.
There was a couple of moments that I didn't understand why Ruby flew off the handle, especially the end scene. Matt didn't do anything wrong, and her running has left us wondering what happens next. will they get a happy ending? I guess we'll need to read on for more.
All that said and done, the story flowed reasonably well, the characters all complimented one another and they just worked. If you like an insta love romance then this is a series for you.
