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.

An addictive page turner!
Let me warn you, be careful while reading reviews for this book, it contains a mind-blowing twist that may ruin your experience if you learn about it before reading. I haven't read such an addictive book since last year, I couldn't put it down!
King's Captive was such an impressive surprise. It's a mafia type romance but it's different from other books in the genre, plus highly romantic and the sex scenes were very intense (specially the first ones)! If you read the blurb and this "oh, this hero sounds like a jerk", you're so wrong! He was redeemed and I was engaged the entire time. The heroine was also strong and likable.
This was my first book by Amber A. Bardan and I'll definitely be looking for more of her books. King's Captive blew me away and I won't forget about it anytime soon.
I voluntarily reviewed an eARC.
