A review by juliereadsromance
The Forbidden Rose by Joanna Bourne

5.0

This is an excellent book- it’s epic, with a long and complex plot. I really loved Margerite and loooooved Guillaume. Like he might be my favorite book boyfriend. There were moments in the book that dragged, or times when Bourne’s writing style got a little tiresome, but there were far more moments that were exciting and romantic and times where her writing was unique and memorable. I strongly recommend the book, and I think it’s worth hanging in there even if it starts to drag in the middle.
