Hello and welcome to our stop on the Hot Summer Nights Erotica Bloghop! Many thanks to Skye Warren for organizing and hosting this awesome event.
In case you’re new to our site, here’s a little info about us: The Forbidden Bookshelf was launched in October 2010 by two book blog buddies, Diana and Tanya. We wanted a site that featured edgier erotic fiction, especially BDSM and kinky books (our favorite!). Since then, we’ve posted about 200 book reviews and almost as many author guest posts and interviews. One of the perks of running this blog is getting to work with the amazing authors we love. We’re just a couple of fangirls at heart. 
We’ve grown a lot over the past 20 months, but we did not do it alone! We have a fabulous review team whom we couldn’t live without: Aisha, Artemis, Ashleigh, AsianCocoa, Breezy, Buffy Kennedy, DavinciKittie, Gabrielle, Kel P, Lady Raven, Mandy, Shelley and Stella.
So, that’s a little about us, now on to the giveaways! There are over 100 authors and bloggers participating in this bloghop, so be sure to comment on each and every post! (Links to the other hop participants are at the bottom of this post.)
Our Giveaway: We’re offering TWO winners their choice of TWO kinky eBooks each from the list below. Yep, the winners get to pick two of our recent favorites! To enter, please leave a comment on this post (include your email address). The digital books will be gifted through Amazon, Barnes & Noble or All Romance eBooks (winners’ choice). Here are the books the winners may choose from:
RECLAIMED SURRENDER by Riley Murphy

DEMON’S CAPTIVE by Stephanie Snow
BURN FOR YOU by Annabel Joseph
DOM FOR SALE by Christine d’Abo
