Captive

By A.D. Robertson

Book Overview

The first adult novel set in the world of the "New York Times "bestselling Nightshade series, "Captive" delivers a steamy, forbidden romance between sworn enemies drawn together by an irrepressible desire. Twenty-five-year-old Tristan Doran enjoys a life of incredible power and privilege. As a direct descendant of the Keepers--witches who have embraced dark magic--he defers to no one but his overlord, Lord Bosque Mar. For most of his life, Tristan has been kept out of the centuries-old Witches War, his bloodline too valuable to risk in battle. But when a beautiful, young human Searcher named Sarah is captured and made a prisoner in his Irish castle, Tristan's infatuation with her flings him headlong into the fray. Captive and captor, unable to contain their longing, embark on a passionate, forbidden romance together--only to learn that their love is at the heart of a prophecy predicting the downfall of the Keepers' ages-old reign. "Captive" explores the darker side of the richly imagined Nightshade universe, a fantasy world of powerful dark witches, shape-shifting wolf warriors, and fascinating history. The first of three erotic novels, "Captive" delves deeply into the fiery, illicit romance of two young lovers whose very desires invite their doom.

Intriguing and Erotic

A fantastic novel in the Nightshade series! Definitely a new favorite. SPOILER: this is how Shay's parents fell in love! Not what you would expect, but a very captivating read (see what I did there?). It keeps you hooked just like her other books do. You get more insight in the world of both Keepers and Searchers as the book swaps the point of view back and forth. I really enjoyed that you get to see what both characters are thinking (I always wonder when reading what the other one thinks). I love that I got to explore "the forbidden side of Nightshade."
