Bound by the Dragon
Corinne Carson writes romance for a living and her books are about to fill the silver screen. From the outside, her life looks like a dream, but in reality she feels that something is missing. She never realized that the man she has been writing about all these years is real.
Mykhayl Tirbronson is a king in his realm, but he has been helpless; at the mercy of the powerful sorceress that moves him and his people around in his world as if they were puppets. Now he has her right were he wants her, in his world and in his bed. But can he resist her charms, and does he want to?
When Corinne realizes all the things she has been writing about ‘Mykh’ actually happened, she is horrified, and also terrified about the revenge he will take. However, she soon finds out that he has seduction in mind and she succumbs to his sweet vengeance. She begins to come into her own, which makes Mykh wary as he suffered for a long time at the hands of this sadistic sorceress. Can she use the powers she has to heal the damage she has done and when she does, will she be sent back to her world? The real question is, does she even want to leave the man she has written about for almost a decade?
Bound by the Dream
Celeste Carson writes about life among the stars. However, she never thought that her words could actually harm someone. When she first sees the man she has been tormenting with her prose, her first reaction is terror, and her second is desire. After all, he has been the star of her fantasies for years.
Jarred Varrain has watched Celeste plotting to kill his friends and torment him for over ten years without being able to stop her. For a long time he wanted her dead, but now that he has her, he wants to make her pay in a decidedly less fatal fashion. With every seductive weapon in his arsenal, he will have her begging before he is done. Then, he will have the ultimate revenge.
When Jarred’s friend is killed by Celeste’s writing, he vows to get even; however, time has lessened his taste for her blood. Instead, he only wants her utter and complete surrender, and he will have it. When Celeste discovers that she does have some powers, she begins to hone them and sees that Jarred is in danger. Can she convince him of this before it is too late, or will she lose the man she has begun to care for all too much?
Captive Dreams is just that; a dream that will capture your imagination. This book makes you wonder if this sort of thing could happen. The twin sisters were both fun because they were contemporary women; one thrust into a fantasy world, and the other into a spaceship. Each author is different, but both meld beautifully into an explosive book that you cannot put down until the last page. Ms Knight and Ms Whiteside deliver spaceships, swordplay, wizards, cyborgs, kings, queens, magic, dragons and sex scenes spicy enough to make you see stars. I highly recommend this book to anyone that likes a mega-alpha male and the feisty heroine who loves him. However, I would advise the reader to wear oven mitts while reading it because these stories are just that hot. Escape to a fantasy world where what-if happens in Captive Dreams.
