ARC Review! King's Captive By Amber Bardan

For three years, I've belonged to Julius King.

Some people would think being stuck on a private island is heaven, but this is my hell.

Because I'm not here as a guest. Not even close. I'm a prisoner. I'm his.

Julius King. Powerful. Wealthy. Dangerous.

There are parts of me he wants that I can't give him. When he looks at me, there are times I swear he sees someone else. And the scary part is that sometimes, when he touches me, I think he may be someone else, too.

Though my body might be tempted, and he might control everything else, I can't let him have any piece of my heart. I won't. But every day, the fight gets harder, and Julius manages to slip past my defenses in the most unexpected ways.

I have to find out the truth about Julius King. Even if it destroys me.

King’s Captive was different than I had thought it would be. There are secrets, there are plot twists, and there are things that will have you questioning what you just read. I love that feeling of suspense, not knowing which direction things will go and we got that with King’s Captive.

Julius has kept Sarah on his island for the past three years, is she a prisoner, a guest or something more? Well I am not going to tell you but I was quickly curious about this situation from the very start. Julius is hard yet caring when it comes to Sarah, he is patient and impatient at the same time. Sarah hates Julius one moment but the next she is unsure what to feel. There are flash backs to the past, her eighth birthday to be exact and that is when she meets Julius for the first time. There is a darkness that surrounds the situation but also a sexual chemistry that can’t be denied. I honestly didn’t see a lot of what happened coming, I thought I had an idea who everyone was but more than once I was proven wrong time and time again.

I will say that at times the writing was a bit choppy and hard to always follow along with whose POV it was but overall it didn’t hinder my reading in any way. King’s Captive is one that I recommend to anyone looking for a plot twisting romantic suspense that will keep you on the edge of your seats until the very end.
