Vipers Are Forbidden: A Why Choose Romance (Gods Among Men Book 3) Kindle Edition
Until you meet me, that is.
My venom is far more toxic than the four men who have declared me their enemy.
They seek vengeance and launch a twisted game of give and take.
I’ll play in their dark world, because it’s where I thrive.
I’ll dance with their debauchery, for I surely know the steps.
But then I discover just how wrong I am. Their four, not only matches, but beats, my one.
With each wicked move they make, they become my obsession.
I crave them until they consume all thought.
The temptation to give them everything they desire becomes too much.
I’m entering their world, and there is no light to guide my way. My blindness full of lust will be my defeat.
Yes… I am the viper and am forbidden.
But they are the end of my beginning.

About the author

Alta Hensley is a USA Today bestselling author of dark romance where the villain always gets the happily ever after.
Twisted, clever, and occasionally unhinged, her books deliver morally gray anti-heroes, sharp-tongued heroines, and happily ever afters that taste even sweeter after a little ruin. With a signature blend of grit, wit, and heat, Alta’s stories prove one thing: villains deserve love too.
Alta lives on the foggy coast of Oregon with her husband, two daughters, and a pair of dogs who think they’re in charge. When she’s not writing redemption for the irredeemable, she’s walking the coastline or sipping craft beer in eccentric little bars that feel like they belong in her books.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 9, 2024She was the head of the family business and cold as ice queen that men feared her. She found out a secret that was kept from her siblings. She had to leave the city to attend a reading of a will. She just wanted to close the strings to go back home and work within the company. She meet four men who were in the will reading.
- Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2024I wish they would have said the FMC was the one who’s a billionaire with the power. Then I could adjusted my expectations. Still… an Enjoyable read with some witty dialogue. Is a quick read but perhaps I was taken aback by the villain in the story but non the less, was a fun time. Spice a 3.5 (only because I had to skip a lot of it for my personal taste… it was a bit boring) but overall a 3.75 star read. I had fun reading this.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2023This is the final book in the series GODS AMONG MEN written by Alta Hensley. I think it's my favorite, but I've said that with each book. This is a dark STEAMY read that I read in one sitting. I couldn't wait to see how it would end. The suspense not only had me on edge, but the conclusion broke my heart. This one will sit with me for a bit. I look forward to reading more by this author.
- Reviewed in the United States on April 5, 2024I loved the character development and the twist. Kept me on edge and not wanting to put it down. Athena is a force and the men are super hot! The spice was amazing, the chemistry off the charts. A highly recommended read for sure.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2023WoW! this book will knock your socks off. This story is slippery just when you think you've got a handle on what's happening there's one helluva twist and your taken in a whole different direction.I couldn't read it fast enough or put it down. Alta Hensley is one incredibly author I have never been disappointed reading any of her books.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 5, 2023Vipers Are Forbidden is one you will not want to miss. I loved this one so much. It gave me everything I was hoping for and then some when it comes to Athena's book. This is book 3 and I loved how everything unfolds. With the help of a PI Athena finally gets the answers she and her brothers have sought after about their mother. Facing off against the 4 men in her mothers life, Athena proves she has what it takes to take on any men. I love how everything unfolds between all of them. There is this guarded yet protective aspect that is present as to what happened to Athena's mother Freya starts to come to light. Hang onto your seat and enjoy the twist, the turns, the erotic love that Athena did not realize was missing. I could not put this down. I love the Gods Among Men series so much. You need to one click this one today.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 4, 2024The God's of Heathens Hollow are ruthless! I enjoyed this series about the Godwin's! Twisted, mysterious and down right filthy! Alta Hensley is the master of dark tales! I look to reading Heathens!
- Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2023The unattainable and forbidden sister of the Godwin siblings. The Viper, Athena, a cold and calculating villainous woman with a huge ❤️ hidden behind her walls of ice 🧊
Picks up with a bit of everlap from Phoenix's plot with the two of them hunting for answers behind her mother's "death"
Which leads her to be entwined with the lives of four "mouthwatering misfits":
Perseus, Heph, Eros, and Paris. Lots of steamy 💋🔥 scenes to include MM 😘
Lots of inner reflection addressing and overcoming their own misgivings that leads the group to a melded future with a shocking 🐀 twist 🤐
Surprised there is a fourth book coming out, but it definitely intrigued me:
"Curious about the secrets of Heathens Hollow?" Oooo Heathens 🤩
