Jeanne St. James – Forever Him

Forever Him is the first installment in the Obsessed Novella series by Jeanne St. James and was released in 2018.

Here’s more about the book, along with our free Enticing Eight downloadable discussion guide for your spicy book club.

Book description

This is not just a love story, it’s an obsession…

I can’t keep my eyes off the tall, dark, and confident man who stops in the coffee shop every morning. I want this stranger more than I’ve ever wanted anyone before, even though I only know his first name. As an author, my imagination is my ultimate writing tool, men like Kane my muse. And the minute he leaves, I’m overcome with fantasies I can’t control and my fingers fly across the keyboard… until one day, I almost snap. My embarrassing outburst has me running out the door when he catches me and takes me to his home.

Though it’s risky, I can’t resist him. And with one kiss, he now owns me. This man will capture my sanity and trap it forever. He’ll steal me one piece at a time until he possesses me completely. He’ll ruin me for any other man. But I don’t want anyone else, for it’ll always be forever him.

Forever Him book club discussion guide

**PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THIS DISCUSSION GUIDE MIGHT INCLUDE SPOILERS**

We’ve provided the Enticing Eight below; eight spicy and intriguing questions to spark discussion and help you uncover the spine-tingling depths of the story.

The Enticing Eight

Foreplay – Warm Up Questions

1. What’s the overall spice level? 1 (Not Spicy) – 10 (Spiciest Thing I’ve Ever Read)?

2. How does the spice level compare to the other books we’ve read together?

3. Jeanne St. James doesn’t shy away from over-the-top metaphors (Chinese fans, filet mignon, dinghy-sized shrimp). Did these descriptions pull you deeper into the drama, or did they yank you right out of the moment?

The Spicy Bits – Gettin’ Down and Dirty with the Plot

4. From the first scene in the coffee shop, she’s drawn to Kane with an obsession that borders on reckless. Do you think lust at first sight can ever truly evolve into love, or does it always stay rooted in fantasy?

5. The danger play during the nipple-bite scene is described as thrilling but also edged with fear. How did you read this—sexy intensity, or a red flag moment?

6. Kane is written as dark, controlling, and magnetic, with the heroine willingly swept up. Did you find their power dynamic exciting, problematic, or a mix of both?

7. The sex is constant, graphic, and tied to obsession. Do you think the story delivered genuine intimacy, or was it more about feeding a fantasy of being consumed?

Aftercare – Final Thoughts

8. Discuss that plot twist ending. Was it a satisfying dark-romance fantasy, or is that trope overdone?

Bonus: What questions do you have for the author? If you could dog-ear a page with a question for the author, what would it be?

Please feel free to use this post as a starting point for your spicy book club discussions and use the comments below to share your thoughts and insights about the book. You can also get a free downloadable copy of the discussion guide using the button below.
