This was another enjoyable book from Jodi Ellen Malpas. I really liked the idea behind the story line and on the whole enjoyed the meeting of Jack and Annie. It was lots of fun and there was definitely plenty of humour in the story. 
 Annie is a great character. She's not got much time for men, and doesn't have anyone in her life. Partly because she's never felt that connection with anyone before, but also because she's concentrating on work and her career as an architect, spending her evenings doing drawings and working. 
 But when Annie meets Jack, everything she's ever known is thrown out of the window. All those feelings she's never experienced before suddenly become real. 
 I enjoyed the connection between the water characters and could really feel the predicament that Annie found herself in. It at the same time, there were elements that didn't make me think it was 'Forbidden' as such, and not quite as taboo as I was hoping for. 
 Overall the story flowed really well and I like JEM's writing style. The middle did lull a little for me, and I found the story to drag a bit. I was just wanting the characters to get on with things and make decisions. Having said that there was a great bit of action towards the end and a lovely ending to the story!! 
 Overall a very good read and one I shall be adding to my paperback collection!! 
 3.5-4 Stars
