Forbidden

By: Ryan M. James, Syrie James

Narrated by: Holly Fielding

She should not exist.

He should not love her.

Claire Brennan has been attending Emerson Academy for two years now (the longest she and her mom have remained anywhere) and she’s desperate to stay put for the rest of high school. So there’s no way she’s going to tell her mom about the psychic visions she’s been having or the creepy warnings that she’s in danger.

Alec MacKenzie is fed up with his duties to watch and, when necessary, eliminate the descendants of his angelic forefathers. He chose Emerson as the ideal hiding place where he could be normal for once. He hadn’t factored Claire into his plans....

Their love is forbidden, going against everything Alec has been taught to believe. But when the reason behind Claire’s unusual powers is revealed and the threat to her life becomes clear, how far will Alec go to protect her?

Forbidden - paranormal, romance, young adult book

I found this story was put together from so many other books. I didn't find this book engaging enough. The characters were okay. I noticed parts from X-men, Twilight and others. I didn't really enjoy this book. There was some action there but again this book needed to speak for itself and not copy other story ideas. I can't continue reading this series because of the story lines. This book is not for me. I gave 2 stars because of the friends at school. I liked them.

Not what it seems! Over used plot line!

Would you recommend this book to a friend? Why or why not?

No, i found this book to boring and dull. It seemed to follow many other books with angels. It wasn't as good as i thought it would be.

What could Ryan M. James and Syrie James have done to make this a more enjoyable book for you?

Maybe not have it about angels.

What aspect of Holly Fielding’s performance would you have changed?

It was not good but not bad. It was in between. Holly could have it sound more enjoyable with the narrating.

Do you think Forbidden needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

I didn't even finish the full book and got maybe between six to eight chapters in, the paperback version and the audio version as well.
