Delectable, captivating erotica!

I couldn't put this erotic delight down. I hadn't read M.S. Valentine until now and I shall definitely give her other books a whirl. The Captivity of Celia is one of the richest, most erotic novels I have recently read. The story of Celia's forceful submission enthralled me from beginning to end. All Celia wants to do is protect her boyfriend Colin after he is falsely accused of murder. The only way to keep him safe is to seek refuge from Colin's cousin, the very rogue Sir Jason Hardwicke. Jason is willing to protect Colin, but there is a catch: Celia has to succumb to Jason's unconventional, depraved sexual needs. What follows is one sensual, delectable, albeit quite dark scene after another. It gets especially interesting when a battle between the cousins over Celia ensues... Sir Jason is one of the most interesting characters I have read in this genre. He is both sensual and unscrupulous. He's a darker version of Captain Alexei from Natasha Rostova's The Captivation and just as ruthless as Lucas from Sedalia Johnson's The Pleasure's Daughter. The brand of domination and submission in this novel is excellent. There is mind control as well as some physical dominance. The one thing I don't like about this novel is that Celia is a little too willing to sacrifice for her lover. She hardly puts up a fight. I would have liked a little more resistance on her part. Anyway, this is a great erotic novel. Blue Moon has taken precedence over Black Lace in my bookshelf recently. The latest Black Lace books have been quite disappointing. They're not how they used to be. I never thought I'd like Blue Moon books so much. And this is one of the best BM books I've read. As said earlier, M.S. Valentine is a great author and I look forward to reading more of her stuff. In fact, I can't wait to pick up The Possession of Celia, the follow-up to this one. In the meantime, I recommend that you pick up this gem.

A tasty read

M. S. Valentine has proven herself a mistress of the genre with this exhilarating offering. Told in the tradition of the gothic novels of years past, she weaves a thrilling tale of innocent Celia, who sets off to "rescue" her lover Colin, who has been given refuge by his cousin, the debached Sir Jason. In fact, the only way she can secure his safety is to offer herself as a sexual sacrifice to Jason. The novel chronicles her descent into a sexual whirlpool of Jason's twisted desires, and her subsequent self discovery as she comes to crave what he offers. The Captivity of Celia left me breathless. It is truly a contemporary masterpiece of erotic literature.

DESTINED TO BE AN EROTIC CLASSIC!

VALENTINE EXCELS IN CRAFTING A FINELY WRITTEN PIECE OF EROTIC WRITING, WITH COMPELLING CHARACTERS AND IMAGINATIVE SEXUAL SITUATIONS. THIS IS NO ORDINARY EROTICA BOOK, BUT ONE THAT SHOULD TAKE ITS PLACE ALONGSIDE THE CLASSIC WRITERS OF BOTH THE VICTORIAN AGE AND CONTEMPORARY.

Destined to become an erotic classic!
