Summary

Karia can barely stand to be around herself, never mind others. She has been confined to the Aerie, until after the birth of her child, but there are limits to what she can do to pass the time.

Mitchell understands, although there is little he can do about it. He doesn’t have the time to deal with her moods and needs.

Erin remembers what it was like for her when she had carried Karia, but the requirements of her position with the new inhabitants of Tantalus, due to Karia’s pregnancy, is taking up every moment she has to spare.

Only one, Alena, seems to know what to do to soothe her granddaughter as she enters the final stages of her pregnancy. She enters the room, sits by Karia’s chair, and begins to speak, “Let me tell you of a very young Tantalarian girl, a handsome young Tantalarian Guardian and the love they shared.”

Very enjoyable!!

Forbidden Contact, a Tantalus novella focused on Karia, Michael, and their daughter. We also get to learn about Kara's family's history of forbidden love. Overall, this was an amazingly written sci-fi alien romance, and I wholly enjoyed it. Brian Callanan does an incredible job with the narration, especially with distinguishing between the characters' voices.

I was given a free copy of this audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
