rjordan19 's review for:

Captive Prince by C.S. Pacat
4.0
adventurous challenging dark emotional sad tense slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

 Went into this with my eyes closed - no idea what the expect but I had an idea it was m/m that was it!

I got this rec asking for something that would break my heart. And it did a bit. Being book 1 of the trilogy, this one was establishing the scene, the background, the setting.

No steam between the main characters in this one yet (slow burn here!)

Content warning:

Scenes of torture, flogging, rape, abuse, violence, murder, branding, forced oral sex on one of the heroes (rape).


I have books 2 and 3 but am going to read something in between before coming back to it.

Seems like people love or hate it - I’m left…intrigued? I want more. Can’t make a full judgement on the story yet I think.
