I also must say that I was expecting their romance to be somewhat enemies-to-lovers but it was really just a friends-to-lovers, which was a bit disappointing when piled on top of the lack of tension.īut then, maybe 150 pages in, the boat stops at this island the Dominic has (which is an idea i love) but they were somehow already in love by then? And they spend day after day on the island waking up and making love and it really just got super boring. Clare has been captured and is now on board with Dominic and they share so many tense, romantic moments. I was really excited to read another pirate book (because I fell in love with Daughter of the Pirate King a while ago and the pirate/boat setting just does it for me every single time.) The beginning of this book was so promising. It really had some excellent aspects, but also some that I just couldn't help but be bothered by. Well, this book is awfully difficult for me to rate. "Also arrogant, and very selfish when it comes to you." He pressed his mouth to hers. He lifted her chin and fed his eyes on the soft curves of her smile. She’ll soon realize that Dominic has captured more than her body. But she too feels a tantalizing passion between them, and so she submits to just one night of bliss. Consumed by desire, desperate to have her, Dominic offers Clare her freedom in exchange for a forbidden night in his bed-a night he assures her will be most pleasureable indeed.Ĭlare believes that Dominic is nothing more than a seductive rogue used to getting what he wants. But the rebel captain is utterly entranced by Clare Sullivan, the stunning slave on board. On a dangerous mission against the Crown, Dominic should be thinking only of his ship’s safety. Captured is a high-stakes historical romance from Beverly Jenkins, award-winning author of Night Song and Jewel, in which a stunning young slave and a roguish privateer share forbidden passion on the high seas.ĭominic LeVeq, the most notorious privateer ever to command the high seas, has just captured a coveted prize: a British frigate.
