Forbidden Forest by Tenaya Jayne follows Shape Shifter/Elf hybrid, Forest. From an birth she was cast away from society because of her shameful figure. While still young, a noble vampire placed an illegal slave mark on her and she is forced to obey him and do as he says. As she ages, she grows tired of the world that she knows and begins to abandon the prejudice of Regia. She leaves that world behind and takes a job on Earth, guarding a portal and using her skills as a warrior to enforce the laws. But, she gets called home for a special mission and is charged with the duty to protect and transport a vampire prince. And although deep down, she has always been trained to despise vampires, there is no way to hide their mutual attraction. Will they be able to fight it?
Phew … this book is definitely detailed and takes you to a whole new world. Surprisingly, I had a lot of fun with this book. At first I was expecting it to be similar to the movie Avatar (blame the cover) and I guess in a way it is, yet it is also very different. I loved the descriptions of the scenery and the worlds and I also thought that Tenaya did a wonderful job developing the characters. Overall, this was a very enjoyable read from a different genre than what I am used to reading. Everything about this book was so visual, I definitely had a reel going the entire time in my head. I would definitely recommend this book.
