Like the first book in this series, Captured, I found it hard to put this down until I had finished it. Please check out my earlier review of Captured if you are interested. I recommend that this series be read in order gain maximum enjoyment.
If you have not read Captured, the first book in the Captive Series, please note that this review contains spoilers, as it contains refrerences which relate to it.
