Captured by Erica StevensMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
Aria, torn from her family and familiar woods, finds herself captured and facing a grim fate as a potential blood slave to the ruling vampire race. Her greatest fear is not death itself but being chosen for this horrifying role. Concealing her true identity from the monstrous captors becomes her paramount concern, as she is already marked as a rebel. Aria's involvement with the rebellion runs deep, a secret that must remain hidden from the vampires at all costs.
In a twist of fate, Aria's world is upended when a vampire named Braith intervenes and claims her as his own, postponing her execution. However, Aria knows that her reprieve is temporary, as Braith will eventually drain and destroy her. Complicating matters, she discovers that Braith is a prince from the royal family responsible for the war that led to humanity's downfall, reducing them to servitude and slavery.
Determined to harbor hatred towards the prince and resist him at every turn, Aria is astonished by Braith's unexpected kindness and gentle demeanor. Torn between her loyalty to the rebellion and her blossoming love for her greatest adversary, Aria wrestles with a monumental decision: choosing between the life she has always known and a love she never anticipated finding.
What a book! I loved it from the moment it started. The tension building up and the ending was amazing. I like the war that Aria had to battle within herself for what she had gone through her whole life and what she currently was feeling. This book had a slight Beauty and the Beast aspect to it and the back and forth between Braith and Aria was tension-filled.
I can't wait to read the second!
