DEFINITELY erotica w/ unfinished ending

This is the short, unfinished tale of Riley (h) and her exploits during a climbing expedition to Mount Gangkar, the forbidden mountain. With Riley, there is an international grouping of males from all continents except Africa. And there is a great amount of sexism in this story, which is a tool the author acknowledges and uses well.

This story has some of the best quickie sex scenes I’ve come across. There is no romance in them, yet there is still an underlying depth in some of the 3-4 sexual encounters. Riley is not a direct actor in all of them. The sex scenes become a little redundant, but they are so good, so explicit, so erotic, that it doesn’t matter. There is a little bit of everything, m/f vaginal intercourse, fem masturbation, male oral sex, and voyeurism.
There is also superb intrigue in the story. This intrigue is great until the end when you are left hanging, not knowing what has happened, who has won the carnal games. And the ending is a great cliffhanger. It’s a very creative story. The narrator did a good job with all of the characters.

Interesting first part of the story

If you could sum up Forbidden Peak in three words, what would they be?

Intriguing, descriptive, short

What was one of the most memorable moments of Forbidden Peak?

There are many elements to this book that are memorable. The whole idea of finding Shangrala and being trapped there is interesting. There are also many groups to meet throughout the story. While I generally liked the lead character Riley, I was confused by the way she interacted with the others. Not sure I would have been so friendly. I loved the moment she has at the end. Total Girl Power!!

What does Marascha Black bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

Really fantastic tone and delicious pace in the smexy scene. She really added action to the book with her voice. She had quite a few accents to tackle, great job keeping them distinct and consistent. I hope she stays with the books and we get to hear more of her great characterizations!

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

It is a very short read and terrific for listening in one sitting. You could also break it up if you wanted to. Maybe take a break after the uber smexy scene at the waterfall!

Any additional comments?

This book is mostly story with a few erotic scenes in the mix. I would not classify it as a romance at this point, no real feeling have been displayed. It also ends abruptly. It seems to be part of one book broken into a series of sections, not my favorite style. I like to get the whole story in one shot, I suck at waiting for the next book. Still it is a solid listen and I am curious to know what the games entail.
