Hannah, Vincenz, and Julian are the main characters and
lovers of CAPTIVATED. Vincenz and Julian have "adopted"
Hannah as theirs. Hannah is, at first, more like the new
"toy", but later in CAPTIVATED she becomes more of
a partner in their love triangle.
The love scenes
begin within the first couple of chapters and get hotter
from there. CAPTIVATED is serious erotica and contains
M/M/F and M/F/M scenes. Readers have to appreciate these
types of scenes to enjoy CAPTIVATED at all.
Hannah's character is nice enough, though she seems a bit
whiny
at times and was jealous of a dead woman even though she
has no problem sharing her two lovers. Julian and Vincenz
are also nice enough, but seem a bit too interested in each
other.
The plot itself is okay and the love scenes
drive the storyline. Lauren Dane does do a good job with
the
emotional relationship between the characters. Readers
will buy into the fact that they truly loved each
other. Fan of erotica will want to make sure they add
CAPTIVATED to their shelves!
Vincenz Fardelle, exiled son of the Supreme Leader of the
Imperialist Universe, has spent much of the last ten years
working to stop the threat his father poses. But he's not
alone in his quest. Julian Marsters has lost his best friend
and countless others in the war and has made vengeance his
only goal. In each other, Julian and Vincenz find not only
like minds, but kindred spirits.
However unexpected their relationship, everything changes
for Vincenz and Julian when Hannah Black comes into their
lives. Having been captured and held in near total isolation
by imperialist troops, their immediate response is to
protect her.
Emotionally shattered but resilient, Hannah rebuilds
herself. Because of the warm safety she finds in the arms of
Julian--and Vincenz she becomes someone harder, stronger and
bent on preventing the Imperialists from harming anyone else.
For the two men, wrestling with their passionate feelings
for Hannah is only the beginning. War is about to send all
three into harm's way and an equally dangerous secret could
tear them apart.
