About this listen
Welcome back to Charybdis Station and the crew of the Blue Solace (sixth book in the series)
Draif Ando started life as a slave on Vextonar. When he was 15, he met his best friend, Leti Ando, and life got a lot better. Now, he's a Charybdis Station captain and works closely with the lord admiral of the station. He is a free man, finally has a purpose of his own, and has the the best lieutenant in the galaxy by his side. If he's so content, why does he yearn for more, and why is he suddenly picturing children with his eyes and Lucas' ears and tail?
Lucas Meluth knew that Draif was his life mate from the moment they met. He also knew that Draif was demisexual and wasn't attracted to Lucas. Not at first. Now, Lucas notices the way Draif's eyes follow him and the way Draif's innocent touches are suddenly not so innocent. Has the time come for their friendship to turn into more?
Draif and Lucas may finally be figuring their relationship out, but their enemies are approaching and it's time to protect Charybdis station and rid the galaxy of Humans First, once and for all.
Author's Note: This is a sci-fi/fantasy, M/M love story with no angst and no cheating, just a HEA. There is lots of action, a little sex, MPREG, and a few potty mouths involved in the story. Only 18 and up listeners, please. It is also the sixth book in a series that is best listened to in order. Listen to The Mercenary's Mate, The General's Mate, The Soldier's Mate, The Lieutenant's Mate, and The Engineer's Mate first!

Story
A psychic without an anchor. A student in trouble. A shooter on the loose.I’m Jonathan Bane, a licensed psychic who consults for the police. I routinely help the police put the bad guys away and, for that reason, the criminal world doesn’t like me much. People like to take a swing at me, or go stabbity, or try for a gun. It makes for interesting times. My psychic ability prevents me from handling anything electronic—and I do mean ANYTHING, I fry it in seconds—so calling for help isn’t always a possibility.

Ari had a game plan for life: shoot people. Get money. Hang out with fellow criminal friends. He saw absolutely no reason to change that plan until one dark night in Memphis, when a little girl reached out to him with pocket change and a desperate plea for him to help her. Adopting an abused little girl off the streets was, needless to say, not part of the plan. Ari had no idea what he was doing with an eight year old. He especially didn’t know how to juggle taking contracts and raising a little girl.

I really love this series
I haven't come across many romance books, let alone LGBTQ+ romance books that are as full of plot and world building as this series. I've listened to all of them and it's so easy to get attached to the characters. It also doesn't hurt that MPreg is my jam! Waiting (im)patiently (lol) for The Rebel's Mate to come to Audible.

Wow, just wow!!! I love this series ❤️
I could go on and wax poetic about writing and characters and MM romance and sci-fi romance and mpreg but even if that is or isn't your thing, what I have found above all the great story telling in these books is acceptance. The author doesn't just make the MM romance accepting but the normal within whatever your society is. They also show how if you don't have a family or friends, you find them. You cobble together your tribe and the more open minded you are, the more accepting you are, the more you grow your heart and only happiness will follow. There will be people who don't approve but the people who do will completely outweigh those that don't. And all you have to do is find that tribe, those people that will love and protect you then wrap them around you as your shield against the haters and let love win. Thank you to the author. These stories and this huge family are soooooo needed right now ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Love this series!
I didn't want this to end. I just absolutely love Lucas and Draif! This is another one I have been waiting for their story. I love how Lucas is so patience with Draif. Just everything about this story is amazing. Not as much fighting but I just love see the relationship between these two characters. Conner Brown does it again with bring this story to life. He has done an amazing job with this world series. I love it so much.
