Tijan has done it again. 

I didn't know this booked was linked with others when i requested it, and not having read the others had no negative impact on my reading experience at all.

This book is a blast from start to finish. In typical Tijan fashion we have fantastic characters, hilarious banter, wonderful side characters and the hottest angst and spice. 

Jake and Sawyer sizzle from their first meeting. Jake is tortured and broody and Sawyer is fresh off a life changing separation. She is the queen of disassociating and her need for life to turn into a musical is something i agree with. Jake and Sawyers family life couldn't be more different, one taught to be an assassin before he became and adult, Sawyer with a close knit group of strong women.

Family is at the centre of this story and finding yourself within the expectations of others. Throw in some kidnappings, hitmen and some will they or won't they and you have all the ingredients for a spicy good time. 

I find Tijan to be an author that I can read again and again. Their books always suck me in and punch me in the emotions, and A Captive Situation delivers again and again.

Thank you to the author and Netgalley for this arc.
