As the first installment of the Voyeur series, TAKEN was short but packed one hell of a punch. Ivy and Noah are best friends who have woken up in a strange room only to realize that they've both been drugged and kidnapped. With more questions than answers, they're not left wondering for too long because their captor(s) make it clear that they are toys/pawns/victims of a very sick game. They don't know who took them, why they were chosen, what the captor(s) end game is, or whether or not they will even survive.
This story is chilling, dark and erotic. I liked the play on hidden emotions. It's very clear that Ivy has strong feelings for Noah, which she has forced herself to hid to protect herself, but this intense situation is forcing them to the surface. I also liked how protective Noah was and how it seemed that some of those feelings were reciprocated. I can't wait to see how this story develops.
I'm not a huge fan of cliffhangers but the authors did a great job of sucking me into this story and I for one am anxious to find out the answers to all of my questions and how things will play out for these characters.
Release Date: May 24, 2017
Genre: Dark Erotic Romance
POV: Heroine - 1st person

1.5 / 5 stars
This was just hella weird. A weird mix of horror and erotica? idek, it was a wild ride, one I didn't really enjoy. It was a car wreck and I couldn't look away. Also, this author seems to have a habit of creating a series out of what should be one book, this was ridiculously short, making you pay for every part. But it clearly worked because I also bought the second one.
And spoiler,

This cover is OK. Pretty good representation of the story. Good compostion. Interesting title work.
This review is going to be rather on the short side. One, because the book itself is very short and two, because I need to watch some puppy and baby videos on Youtube to cleanse my brain. *lol*
So my feelings on this one? I really liked it. Like I said above it's super short and ends on a major cliffy, but I am incredibly intrigued to see where this is all going. The writing was excellent. It had a nice pace to it. It was twisted and bloody and had some hot sex scenes. Bring on the next installment!

Taken is the first book in the Voyeur Series by Elena M. Reyes & N Isabelle Blanco.
Drugged and kidnapped, Noah and Ivy found themselves in a dark, luscious room with a huge bed, a voice coming through the speakers, no answers and no way to escape; just a bone-chilling fear of the unknown and the unsettling feeling that they were being watched, that at any moment one of them will die. All they have is each other.
Two pets.
One voice.
Fuck or die.
I already love N.Isabelle Blanco's writing, but this was my first Elena M. Reyes and I can say without a doubt, that I will read whatever this duo writes.
The suspense was killing me! Taken kept me intrigued with who the mystery woman that causes so much pain to the lead characters was. And why? Fucking why? I need to know what's going to happen next.
I need Noah POV, pleaseeeeee!!
It ends on a cliffy, one that will leave you gasping for MORE!!
Taken is dark, twisty tale of lust, blood, murder and I dare to say, LOVE. The perfect start to a new series. It's not a story for everyone. So you have been warned.
Can't wait to get my grabby hands onto the next one!

THIS BOOK DID NOT JUST END LIKE THAT
okah so i would have rated this 5 stars but i’m rating it a 4.75 because idk about the dead fiancee, why was she mentioned? She must play some role in the story, otherwise its completely unnecessary to mention that he had one
