Captivated

by Lauren Dane

Vincenz Fardelle, exiled son of the Supreme Leader of the Imperialist Universe has spent much of the last eleven years working to stop the threat his father poses. But he’s not alone in his quest. Julian Masters has lost his best friend and countless others in the war and has made vengeance his only goal. In each other, Julian and Vincenz find not only like minds, but kindred spirits. However unexpected their relationship, everything changes for Vincenz and Julian when Hannah Black comes into their lives. Having been captured and held in near total isolation by Imperialist troops, their immediate response is to protect her. Emotionally shattered but resilient, Hannah rebuilds herself. Because of the warm safety she finds in the arms of Julian – and Vincent – she becomes someone harder, stronger and bent on preventing the Imperialists from harming anyone else.
