Damien, Forever: A Friends-to-Lovers Romance (Art of Sinners) Kindle Edition
Damien
She's everyone's favorite princess. Gorgeous girl next door. Homecoming queen. But to me, she'll always be so much more. The light in my dark, my best friend, my everything. But there's one thing she can't ever be. And that's mine. Because I'll make damn sure to keep my filthy hands off her. Even if it kills me.
Bella
He's the boy of broken whispers. The one dripping ink. The one sowing fear. But to me, he'll always be so much more. The music in my soul, my best friend, my everything. And pretty soon, he'll be between my sheets, too. Because what baby girl wants, she gets. Just watch.
The ART OF SINNERS Series... An exquisite fall from grace.
Dear Reader: Damien, Forever is the book of my heart, and I hope you enjoy the slow burn. While it isn't a dark romance, this friends-to-lovers, second-chance romance contains quite a bit of angst, in addition to material that could elicit a strong emotional response in some readers. If that's not your jam, Dame and Bella's story might not be for you. If it is, welcome to the tribe!
Kisses + Bites,
Tempest

About the author

Tempest Phan loves ink, words, leather pants, K-pop, and (scr)e(a)mo (#SorryNotSorry). She's married to her own tattooed lawyer, and when she's not running after their littles and pups, she spends her time snuggling with book boyfriends and writing about broken heroes and indomitable heroines. (By the way, she’s never met a bar of dark chocolate that she hasn’t fallen head-over-Loubs for).
DAMIEN, FOREVER, her debut novel, launched in December 2020. It kicked off the ART OF SINNERS series where each book can also be read as a standalone. Stay tuned for LUKAS, SOMETIMES releasing on September 29th, 2022.

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 30 December 2020Dear Tempest,
Do you know which agency you should be reported to for theft? Serious question. I did not give you permission to steal a bit of my soul with your novel. How very dare you.
Unfortunately, the sheer quantity of tears shed over this angsty debut of yours cannot be blamed on an overly hormonal PMS. Since it can't be blamed on that, then it must, therefore, be placed on you.
Damien, Forever is extremely well written. It is beautiful and gut-wrenching and heartbreaking and stunning. That this is a debut novel is simply...unimaginable. I've never read anything quite like it, and I will be sure to read everything else she writes.
For those that have an issue with this sort of thing, I will add a warning ⚠️ There is a love triangle and 1 sharing scene.
Tempest, we really do need to discuss the return of my soul, at your earliest convenience.
Sincerely,
Michaella

- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 December 2020What an amazing book to announce your arrival on the indie book scene. I wasn't really sure what to expect from this book but the synopsis intrigued me and that cover is just beautiful.
Bella and Damien are the very definition of soul mates. The story follows them through all the heartaches and pain of friendship then love. Damien is not the usual hero and I loved that he wasn't given the typical rockstar treatment. He was the kind thoughtful emo rocker who has his demons which make him think he's not good enough for Bella. Then there is sweet Bella who see's the good in him, I love how determined she was to win him over. This is a slow burn romance that follows them for years it is an angsty heartbreakingly beautiful story.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 September 2021I can't express how amazing this story was. Oh my heart for Dame and Bella. A true Raw love story, but oh boy did they go through it, I absolutely loved these characters and I did feel for Lukas, I can't wait for his story next. It's going to be amazing.
Thank you Tempest for such an amazing story. Your writing is spot on and I know I'm going to love everything you write.
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 27 December 2020I fell head first into this & connected with the characters on a completely different level. Damien and Bella's relationship had me captivated, i loved, laughed and silently cried reading this breathtaking book. PLUS there are some seriously jaw dropping scenes!! (Did it just get hot in here)🥵😉
"𝓘’𝓵𝓵 𝓼𝓪𝔂 𝓽𝓱𝓪𝓽 𝓘 𝓱𝓪𝓿𝓮 𝓪𝓵𝔀𝓪𝔂𝓼 𝔀𝓪𝓷𝓽𝓮𝓭 𝔂𝓸𝓾, 𝓽𝓱𝓪𝓽 𝓘 𝓱𝓪𝓿𝓮 𝓪𝓵𝔀𝓪𝔂𝓼 𝓬𝓻𝓪𝓿𝓮𝓭 𝔂𝓸𝓾. 𝓘 𝓯𝓮𝓮𝓵 𝓼𝓲𝓬𝓴 𝔀𝓲𝓽𝓱 𝓱𝓸𝔀 𝓶𝓾𝓬𝓱 𝓘’𝓿𝓮 𝓪𝓵𝔀𝓪𝔂𝓼 𝓬𝓻𝓪𝓿𝓮𝓭 𝔂𝓸𝓾. 𝓨𝓸𝓾’𝓻𝓮 𝓮𝓿𝓮𝓻𝔂𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓷𝓰 𝓽𝓱𝓪𝓽’𝓼 𝓰𝓸𝓸𝓭 𝓲𝓷 𝓽𝓱𝓲𝓼 𝔀𝓸𝓻𝓵𝓭, 𝓫𝓪𝓫𝔂 𝓰𝓲𝓻𝓵.”
Damien & Bella are life long friends but Dame is a tortured being from the wrong side of the tracks. But Bella's fierceness and loyality to him is pure fire and she would jump through pain & fire to protect him and vice versa.
My heart broke several times throughout but when Bella was powerful to express her emotions and feelings for her best friend. Their passion and love is raw and real and i see Damien is protecting her but god damn MY HEART. COME ON DAME!! ❤
“𝐆𝐨𝐨𝐝𝐛𝐲𝐞, 𝐤𝐢𝐬𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐛𝐢𝐭𝐞𝐬'
Wow, the way Tempest Phan writes, its a whirlwind of emotions and passion. The mental health element was so beautifully written and feels real but yet relatable!
This a must read on everyone's tbr list!
Thank you for this incredible journey!
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 24 March 2021I may have to come back & edit this review at some point, as my head is all over the place after reading this stunning, epic, masterpiece.
Damien!
My Damien James!
My heart broke for him & I think he stole a little bit of my heart too through these pages. His story was heart wrenching, raw, real & beautiful. I’m so glad I found this author & read this book. Bella & Damien’s love story is a must read.
A highly recommended 5+ kisses and bites stars.
Now bring on Lukas....
- Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 12 October 2021I loved Bella and Damien and the book is beautifully written but I didn't like the story. I thought I knew what a romance novel was but I was wrong. This is romance/drama so for anyone who has read action/romance or romance /mystery and think they know what a romance novel is, you don't.
This is pure romance with heartbreaks, the family drama, the 'i love you neither' and other romance things. But for true romance fans, I am sure they will love the book and bonus, a book two is coming.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wow totally blown away
This book was such an incredible read. It was one of the hardest books to read in the fact that my emotions were so strong. I immediately fell in love with all the characters and wanted a happy ending. I just want to scream, this book was absolutely fantastic and I will definitely be reading the next one. This book definitely toys with your emotions and meets all your wants and needs from a book. I am a bit speeches and don't know exactly what to write because I don't want to provide any Spoilers. This is a MUST read.

5.0 out of 5 stars Devastatingly beautiful tragic love story
angsty friends-to-lovers plus second chance that will break your heart (a lot!) before putting it back together for MF HEA with bittersweet aftertaste 🖤 this is standalone for Bella and Damien's story, though there are more stories planned for the "Art of Sinners" series 🖤
"My heart ached at the exquisite tragedy of it all."
This quote pretty much sums up my review. I was completely transfixed by Bella and Damien 🖤🖤 The writing is exquisite and often poetic. The characters are incredibly rich, complex, layered, imperfect - and I felt EVERYTHING along their journey. They have that all-consuming, soul-deep love; they are each other's biggest supporters and protectors. But life, difficult circumstances, and drastically different socicioeconomic status place many obstacles and hard choices in their path. Their story is told in Dual-POV over about a ten year period, starting from age 17.
One of the things I love about second chance romance is that it acknowledges that even 'written in the stars fated love' does not mean that each person is where and who they need to be for a relationship with the other and lets the reader follow the characters' growth, including all the stumbles along the way. One of my favorite things about this story is that it is second chance on a few different levels -- there's the second chance romance for Bella and Damien; there's second chance pivotal life moments for a few characters; there's second chance repairing relationships with others.
This is so much more than a tragic love story ... It touches on grief, mental health, self worth, addiction, and behind-the-scenes glimpses of the rock star's rise to fame. Every moment is written with an emotional depth and intensity that makes reading this story an incredible experience.
"I’m yours, my Damien James. Always. Only. Yours." 🌸🖤
Tempest has bled her heart and soul into every single page of this incredible debut novel -- seriously one-click this one and grab some tissues for the emotional journey 😭😭 - it's soooo good! I'm both ready to re-read and ready for her next release 🖤🖤

5.0 out of 5 stars Damien Forever
A beautiful teen romance at the start, sweet romantic scenes, making my heart melt over and over, so full of love and desire, but turning into endless pain, darkness and the torture of both their souls.
Damien's tortured heart shredded into pieces continuously, so full of self-doubt, believing the lie that he is not worthy of Bella, the one and only love of his life.....
Damien, haunted by nightmares and unresolved rejection, combined with accusations of false guilt, forced on him daily by his sick mum, reaching far back into his childhood, when Bella had already been his best friend, his comforter, his reason for living.
Every page is so full of emotions, feelings, heartbreaking pain, making me feel breathless and starting to feel Damien and Bella's pain in my own heart, wanting to reach out to them and cover them with my prayers for everything turning out o.k.
And it does at the end. But not without leaving another broken heart behind. Lukas. His story soon to come in another book by Tempest Phan, I am already looking forward to it!!!
"Damien Forever" has touched my heart deeply.
I could feel the strong passion of Tempest Phan's writing, dripping onto every page, like the falling tears of a rockstar's cherry blossom, tattooed in black and grey ink with a touch of pale pink, covering his tortured heart, letting the power of strengh and beauty slowly sinking into it's veins.
Clearly five stars,
kisses and bites for tempestphan's Damien forever.

5.0 out of 5 stars Can’t believe this is a debut novel !
“...Stop trying to hold my heart while you also break it. If you’re going to break it, just f***ing break it.”
Trust me when I say nothing will prepare you for the angst filled heartbreaking journey that is Damien and Bella’s love story.
Damien, Forever is a angsty new adult slow burn, friends to lovers, second chance romance, rockstar romance that you will not be able to put down.
From the very beginning this book completely consumed me and it had everything I look for in a book. It had heartbreak, angst, sexual tension, swoon worthy moments and so many emotions.
I loved how raw and relatable the MCs were, how they developed throughout the book and how easily I fell in love with the supporting characters.
I honestly couldn’t believe that this was Tempest’s debut novel and I cannot wait for to see what she has in store for us next !

4.0 out of 5 stars My Damien James & His Bella!
Damien, Forever is Tempest Phan debut novel, and I think she did a marvelous job. It was a childhood friends to lovers, full of anguish, rockstar, and it's over a period of time. The characters Damien, and Mirabella were likeable, and so relatable. They were so in love! My Damien James, has many demons to overcome before he can be the man he wants to be for Bella. I liked the supporting characters as well, especially Lukas. (His story is next) I was drawn into this story from the start, it was slow burning journey, full of emotions, and I was cheering for them to get their happily ever after. Looking forward to reading many more stories from this author.
