About this listen
Luca Gray Hart
I have everything I could ever want—a great family, awesome friends, a girlfriend, and I’m headed off to my dream college. But the past is always there, lurking like a shadow in the night....
Branson Joseph Adler
I love men. I love everything about them. Their feel. Their smell. Their taste. It’s no secret to my friends and family that I’m gay. But I do have one secret....
What happens when you give in to the temptation and your world turns upside down?
It’s forbidden.
But it’s ours.
Barred Desires is the first book in the Deepest Desires interconnected series. It is a forbidden MM stepbrother romance, and it is angsty, emotional, and steamy.

This is the first book of Ashley's that I have read, and it won't be my last. I really enjoyed the relationship between Luca and Branson. I liked that we got both of their points of views throughout the book. It really brought the story to life.
I can't wait for the next book in the series Forsaken Desires to be released on audio so I can get Aston and Knox's story.
Eric and Michael did a great job on the narration. I look forward to listening to more of their work in the future.
I would recommend this book if you like forbidden romances, stepbrother romances, or MM romances.

Luca and Branson were... wow just wow, I don't even have the words to describe it.
The intensity of their feelings and the amount of push and pull between the two was spectacular. I loved the whole thing.
I loved the way these two fit together like they were meant to be and I loved the way things played out in this story. This is definitely one I will be revisiting regularly!
Eric Corbyn and Michael Gallagher nailed it!! They completely brought this book full circle! It was such a great experience!
FIRE!! Absolute Fire!!

Forbidden stepbrother romance may not be an immediate ‘go to’ for me, but ‘Barred Desires’ is amongst the few I find myself being drawn to.
Branson and Luca have been in each others lives from a very young age. Their attraction to one another wasn’t.
The element of surprise was, therefore, very well thought of and written.
Another great thing about Ashley James is how she writes ‘boys’. They’re messy, awkward, impulsive and (often) brash but… guess what? Early twenty something boys act just like that. Their angst is never too far apart from a struggle for comprehension and, especially, patience. They might read as unpolished, but they’re certainly genuine.
Also, if you’re not familiar with the series, the next two titles are definitely worth reading, with ‘Forsaken Desires’ being my favourite (I really loved hating ‘Finny’!). Quite a bit darker and heavier, though.
🎧 Both narrators did an AMAZING job portraying these newly minted adults.
I wasn’t familiar with either, but will definitely keep an eye out for their work from now on.
Stepbrother romance done right
