Capture Me
Capture me. Carry me off into your mountains where trees are allowed to grow and the air no longer smells of exhaust. Capture me. Lure me into the seduction of a lakeside campfire at dusk, wrapped in the arms of a lover. Capture me, and I will not resist your artful trap. I will breathe freely in your wilderness. I will reward you by leaning into every kiss.
off to the land of nod
Capture Me by Anna Zaires
Rating: 9/10 shivers & blushes😳
After reading Anna Zaires' Twist Me series I knew I HAD to read the Capture Me series too! Truthfully, Anna Zaires is the reason I fell in love with dark reads in the first place. And tbh, all her dark reads are truly my favourites. Other dark reads by other authors don't really cut it out for me because sometimes it's TOO dark that the romance between the hero and heroine becomes a little forced and fake? But in this case, Anna has made romance possible despite how messed up / screwed up the hero is. In the Twist Me series, the hero is definitely much more dark than the hero in Capture Me, so I think those who aren't into too dark a read, but need a controlling dark man, would enjoy this! (And when I mean "too dark" it would refer to things like rape/ extremely extremely rough sex or treatment).
If you have read Twist Me #3, you would have been introduced to both characters in this book, Yulia and Lucas. Lucas is the right hand man of the hero from the first book (Julian) and he meets Yulia on Julian's trip to Ukraine (if I'm not wrong? I get confused with the countries haha) but anyway, Yulia who was in fact a spy, acted as a translator for Julian in order to gain information. I don't know the specifics of the different organisations (and tbh if you didn't read the Twist Me series, the context can be confusing) but Julian is basically a huge weapons dealer (so bad ass so hot sighs!!!!😍 really love powerful men) and this was just one of his trips to deal weaponry. I don't want to reveal too much but Yulia and Lucas eventually have a one night stand (yes there was sparks!! Hehe they were interested in each other), but Yulia afterward betrays him... I mean she's a spy after all. And the story begins.
I really don't want to spoil it, but I can't seem to make the little teaser/summary/pathetic snippet above interesting. But this story is so rich in the sense that there is action, romance, drama... I absolutely loved it. Anna Zaires manages to still capture the dark essence in her writing, when Lucas captures Yulia after her betrayal, but this book was much more "romantic" then Twist Me, as Lucas isn't has messed up and dark as Julian when it comes to the woman he falls in love with. (I'm assuming he's gonna fall in love with her duh hahaha).
And I remembered reading Twist Me and imagining whether I can ever like Yulia after what she did, but the author really knows how to write a story!!! Anna made me empathise with Yulia and really really love her character and wished that Yulia didn't have to experience so much hardships in her life.
And my oh my do I love Lucas. He's rough on the edges (as you learn how he kills for a living, loves to kill actually) but still so sweet towards Yulia. My heart really twisted (another HCF!!!!) when he finds out the stuff Yulia had to go through, and how he gets jealous (so very cute !! 😊😍).
The majority of the book is really just the development of the characters and introducing the spark between them , enticing readers like me to want to read the rest of the story when the author slowly reveals bit by bit the background of Yulia.
The sexual tension between both of them is soooo much and I hated / loved the end of the first book. REALLY MADE ME CRAVE THE SECOND BOOK SO MUCH UGH.
I'll classify this as a dark read because of how he treats her as a prisoner when he captures her. But truthfully now that I think about it, it's not really that dark? Those who enjoy REAL dark reads will probably shake their heads as they read this haha. But I'll still put this under the genre 😊 I'm gonna review the second book soon! Can't wait 😊
