Want a Forbidden's ARC?

I am looking for readers of ARCs of the second edition of my novel Forbidden. Forbidden Supernatural Erotic Romance (Forbidden, #1) by Haru Ichiban New cover, more descriptions and a more decent grammar compared to the first one! WARNING: This book is intended for mature audiences!



Is living the life of your dreams worth risking eternal punishment?

Detective student Sween is hell-bent on making her tall, dark, handsome classmate Lei fall in love with her, despite him being madly in love and dating all-round perfect Dessande.
As she concocts one failed scheme after another while getting in petty fights with Lei every chance, the realm of the supernatural around everyone becomes more and more apparent. Just who are Sween and Dessande? Perhaps nothing and nobody are what they seem to be?
Only one thing is clear: Sween’s love for Lei. But even if she managed to date him, what would await her? Being branded a criminal and chased down every night by her kind would only be the beginning of her problems. However, if only Lei loved her back, she would not mind breaking every law for him. No matter the consequences. Even if it meant living a forbidden love with a dubious future as she defied everyone and everything in Heaven... and everything she once stood for.

Forbidden is the first book in a long saga of romance full of sweetness and carnal delights, plots with substance, smart heroines, manly and sensitive heroes, morally ambiguous main characters, a mysterious supernatural world, detectives and humor.


Additional information:
Genres: erotic romance, paranormal romance, mature young adult, romantic comedy.
Length: Like in all erotic stories, length is very important, and you will be pleased with this book’s 108,000 words/494 pages.
Part of a series: Yes.
Standalone: Yes.
Erotic themes: M/F penetration, M to F masturbation, M masturbation, cunnilingus, fellatio, M to F tantric massage, flashing, fondling, erotic show, dry humping, heavy making out, breast play and more. Further Forbidden stories will explore more themes.
BDSM: No.
Cheating: No.
Vampires: In the world of Forbidden, any supernatural creature (angel, demon, spirit, ghost) can feed off human blood. You’ll see bites, including one during an erotic scene.
Death, gore, etc.: Only one scene, not exceedingly traumatic, and happens to a villain.
Dark themes: No. Other books will include topics like killing for pleasure and rape, but they will never go extremely dark. Forbidden is uplifting, full of hope and joie de vivre, not disturbing.
HEA: A trademark of mine is what I call a “light gray ending”: the outcome is overall good; however, some kind of price has to be paid for it.
Haru Ichiban’s comments: The story starts very light, kinda like college comedy. It progressively turns more and more intense, until the situation turns into inescapable persecution and personal war where someone has to win and someone lose.



A little about the main characters:
The hero, Lei Synge-Sturmmond: Explosive-tempered and extremely proud. Of brooding disposition, he’d rather be on his own or just in the company of the special lady in his life. Despises his rich, cold, cruel, elitist family. While a billionaire, he carries a past of financial scarcity. He’s a bona fide caffeine addict and always wears black. Wants to be a great detective, but institutional education and him are not the best of friends. Despite his tough appearance, he’s a hopeless romantic. Weird and inexplicable happenings seem to have a fixation on him.
Type III antihero (dangerous antihero). While he prefers to follow the path of good, if need arises he’ll get the job done.

The heroine, Sween Funew: Lots of mysteries about this girl’s origins and true nature pile up as the story unfolds. She may be human… she may be not. Exceedingly smart and bright; however, she has the emotional maturity of a ten-years-old, so she usually comes off as childish and capricious. Likes anything cute, the more the better. The same age as Lei, but looks much younger. She’s also a female pervert. Fiercely loyal and faithful.
Type IV antihero (vicious antihero). Don’t be fooled by her sweet and cute appearance: she’ll pay evil unto evil, and when protecting herself or someone she loves, she has no qualms about anything.



If the story appeals to you and you can post a review at Amazon, please send me a private message with your mail. I will send the ARCs by the 21st May and you need to post a review before the 17th June. I’m counting on you!
