I have no problem with books where a sexy Alpha male decides he wants a certain someone and does everything in his power to get her. None. But I do prefer that books that have the word 'captive' in their title and have a woman with her hands bound on the cover have more ... captivity. I have expectations, people, and I want them to be met!
Yes, there is a little tying up, a little binding, some light bondage play... but I was expecting more. THAT'S WHY I BOUGHT THIS BOOK. Are we clear on that? I ...more

This was just a mediocre novella with almost no story here and most of all, it was too short! The whole story was a little bit off and it would have made a lot more sense if the hero had taken the heroine seriously at first. Fortunately, it was free on Amazon Kindle, or else I might even get more fed up with these two main characters!

I have read something from this author before and liked it enough to try this series. While this did not grab me out the gate I still did enjoy it. The characters seem thin but I assume they will get more of a lift as this continues since they will likely be seen in subsequent books even though they will not be the focus. I also expect that there surroundings, besides the fact that it is Louisiana, will be more fully fleshed out. This didn't really give me a chance to see them in my head and bec

I usually love erotica involving werewolves trying to deny their desire for their mate. This story had the makings of great erotica but it fell short. The characters were bland and had very little depth. Yes, one could argue that this was a short story of 98 pages and short stories have little character building. I disagree however because it can be done. But I'm digressing. The sex was erotic but never made me squirm. How could an alpha werewolf not make me squirm? Maybe because I didn't really

"Dammit, Amanda. You make me crazy. I've never been this hard before... "

Review for mature readers only!
Sebastian Deveraux is the Alpha of his pack and like all the Deveraux men, he's sexy as pure sin. He's waited for decades for just the right woman. For his mate. And ten years ago he'd been sure he'd found her in Amanda St. James. But she'd run from him. Now she's back. And this time he won't let her go, even if it means tying her up to his bed. In fact, Sebastian might take a little p ...more

This is such a fast moving book, but does not lack for details. I really enjoyed the way the author kept giving us little back stories to help develop the characters and their history. She really drew out the emotions in the story and created this little world right there in the bayou that I can’t wait to go back to. I hope we get to see more of the rest of the pack and what is really going on with the flowers.

Sebastian Deveraux the Alpha of his pack . He has waited a decade for just the right woman for his mate, but none never made him feel the way Amanda had. Amanda was very young and felt scared for what she felt for Sebastian, so she went on to college and lived a very successful life in New York. Now, she has returned because she thought Sebastian sent something to her but it wasn't him.

I have never read any of Selena Blake before, but as this was free on Amazon, I decided to give her a go and I am glad that I did. This is the sort of book that you want to read with a glass of wine in your hands, feet up and no distractions ie no husband, no children, this book is for "your time". In this book, there is no side story, no baddies, only a slow burning sexual tension that builds and builds. Our sexy Cajun hero (Sebastian) has been in love with Amanda since she was young. Too young

So I totally needed this! A super quick read but really good and redonkulously hot!
Sebastian is straight up Alpha and now that he's gotten his woman back, he's not letting her go. Even if he has to tie her up in order to keep her!
HOLLA!
yes, this could have been longer...yes, the storyline wasn't amazing but sometimes all you need is a really hot muscle-donut alpha werewolf getting straight to the point to make it a pretty awesome read!
Ill take this as is anyday! :) ...more

3.5 stars - short and sweet book. I read on a goodreads discussion how this book was pretty good and it was I just wish it were a little longer.
Sebastian is thinking about the girl that got away, when she just happens to be sneaking around his house. He's not letting her go this time. There's a mystery of who sent the note that led her back there, which is never answered. Maybe if the book was a little longer we could have found out. ...more

Stars: 3.5
Overall: I'm left a little confused at the moment. I really liked the idea of the story, but it felt so rushed, i truly feel like i never got a chance to get to know the characters or the situation they are in. I really wish the author would've slowed the story and explained Amanda's past and would've given Sebastian and Amanda and chance to fall in love, not just rush her to the alter.

This was a good book for a first book in a series. This is the first book I have read by this author and was very pleased with it. Even though it was a short read it captured me from the beginning and does not skimp on steam or story at all. Will definitely be reading more from this series and author

This book was very short. It got right to the point. I must say I believe the main character had Stockholm syndrome. Who marries a man that ties her to the bed and " claims" her. Wow. But I want to read the series. I have been told it's really good. Onward to book #2.

When Amanda St. James gets flowers and a note from Sebastian expressing condolences, she knows she has to see him. Instead of ringing to be let in the gate, she climbs over the wall. She thinks she knows what Sebastian is but wants the confirmation or perhaps a confrontation. When she fled into the night leaving him behind she fully expected him to chase, but he didn't.

3.5 stars.
I have the whole series and love rereading them.
Short introduction to this series but not the best of the bunch.
Never quite get the feeling these two are meant for each other even though everything is there to bring them together.
Didn’t like Sebastian being a player as it is implied. If he had wanted Amanda so much over the last nine years why didn’t he pursue her.
I can understand Amanda’s side due to what she overheard Sebastian say.

For me this story lacked any depth. I was left with little bits of information that was supposed to lead to this Alpha pair who were brought together by a mysterious bouquet of flowers.
I was left wondering what was the story about. It has the making of a good book but with only bones and no meat to make a really good read.
