Captive of Wolves by Eva ChaseMy rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐ stars
Captive
of Wolves is book one in the new paranormal, reverse harem series by Eva chase.
The story focuses on Talia, a human who has been captured by the fae because
her blood is different and can help heal (although temporarily) the curse that
the fae have been going through when it is a full moon, becoming violent
werewolves. Talia is abused both physically and mentally in a horrific manner
until one day she is ‘rescued’ by four men, but Talia could have gone from one
place of captivity into another.
The four
fae that have rescued Talia: August, Sylas, Whitt and Kellen are all
surprisingly different. One is a leader, one has a kindness to him, one hides
his hurt and one becomes a victim of his own violence, but they all have one
thing in common, the curse. We delve through the story with each character
trying to make a claim on Talia, who although being human has an inner fire in
her that not even torture and abuse can extinguish. The story follows the
development of all of their relationships (whether good or bad) and why Talia’s
blood is so important. We only get hints of it throughout the book.
As it is
a first book there is a lot of world building and description of why the
brothers have become outcasts in their fae society. We also have small glimpses
of Talia’s family and the hurt she feels on not seeing them again. I also
enjoyed the two and fro of the brother’s relationship with Talia as they try to
figure out why she is important as well as how each of them will navigate a
relationship with her.
There is
definitely a lot going on in this book and very few questions answers (hello
series) as well as a huge cliff-hanger at the end. I can’t wait to see what
else happens with these characters.
ARC received for a
fair, honest and sometimes long review. All opinions are my own. 😊
