Captive of the Night by K. Loraine, Meg Anne

americanosandfiction's review against another edition

Oh, my heart. Once again, Captive of the Night picks up where the last book left off… with Rosie dead. Ish. She returns as the thing Ben hates most, and his coming to terms with who Rosie is now was heartbreaking.

I love how supportive Remi and Gavin were, especially when they realized Rosie’s appetite was immense. Gavin couldn’t sustain her alone, but damn if he didn’t try. If there is a character in this series who has grown, it’s Gavin. Rosie has anchored him, but he is in it 100%, even when it went against his nature to share. When Ben couldn’t get his head out of dark places, Gavin was there to convince him to help her.

My heart hurts for Asher and Remi. Damn that Pan. Our resident demon has taken over Asher’s body, and it took a while for everyone to see. He struggled so hard to come back to Rosie and Remi. Pan just about ripped Remi’s heart out, but thankfully he had Rosie to hold his pieces together.

Also to note: Rosie is a queen, Caleb is still my favorite sexy Irish priest, and Pestilence is worse than War.

I didn't think anything could top the first Mate Games series, but this book may have singlehandedly done it. Without giving too much of the plot away, this book gives you all the emotions. From the light witty banter moments, to the heartbreaking sad and heavy ones. The guys are really going through it in this book, and you can't help but feel for them.
And as someone who's favorite character was Pan in the first books, I just don't see how he will redeem himself after this. I know he's a villain character, but I need a little redemption from him. And I did not expect to start liking Gavin as much as I did in this book.
Now I can't wait for the final book to come out so we can see how Rosie and her mates overcome their obstacles to get their happy ever after.

This book had me hooked from start to finish! The authors, Meg Anne and K. Loraine delivered an emotional rollercoaster filled with spicy scenes and unexpected twists. The narrators brilliantly portrayed the characters, including Stella Hunter as Rosie, Jacob Morgan as Remi, J.F. Harding as Ben, Teddy Hamilton as Asher, James Joseph as Pan, and John Hartley as Gavin. It was exciting to see familiar faces from the Mate Games War series, like Noah and Kingston and Father Caleb, portrayed by Jason Clarke. The apocalyptic plotline kept me on edge, and the gritty moments added urgency to the story. I'm eagerly anticipating the next installment in The Mate Games: Pestilence series to see how Rosie and her mates navigate the challenges ahead.

Meg Anne and K. Loraine left me hanging on a cliff by a thread with the last book…And then put me back together with this one. Mostly anyway. The storyline is getting thicker and thicker with this one. The twists keep coming, dropping my jaw to the floor. The spice within this book had me melting so many times. Like I wanted to go sit in my freezer type hot. Watching the changes and growth occurring in these characters is weird combination of heartbreaking delight. Rosie shows her resilience and innate character strength in this book, making me love her even more. Gavin surprised me in how much I enjoyed his character in this book. Surrendering himself to providing what Rosie needs was fabulous to watch. Normally I would go through and tell you what it was about each main character that endeared them to me, but I feel if I did so here I would give something away. So instead I will just say, I adore all her men. Except for Pan…He still has room for growth. (Mental and emotional that is.) The ending shook me and I cannot wait for the next part of this story!

Just try putting this book down! If you've been invested in the series, you know to expect a few twists and turns, and Kim and Meg do not disappoint in this continuation of the series. All the spice! All the stars to these 2 amazing storytellers!

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving a review.

Captive of the Night by Meg Anne and K. Loraine is a why choose paranormal romance that I listened to on audio narrated by Teddy Hamilton, J.F. Harding, John Hartley, Stella Hunter, James Joseph, Jacob Morgan, and Jason Clarke. This is the third book in The Mate Games: Pestilence series.

I absolutely love the Mate Games World! Meg and Kim do an amazing job pulling me into the story. I can't help but binge in each book in one sitting. I love that we got Pan, Remi, Ben, Gavin, Rosie, Asher, and Lilith's points of views throughout the book. It really brings the story to life. 

The book ended on a great cliffhanger that left me begging for more. I can't wait for the next book in the series Lost to the Moon to be released on May 22, 2023.

I absolutely love that they do a full cast of narrators for this series. It really brings the story to life. You can't help but binge the audiobook in one sitting.

I would recommend this series if you like paranormal romances, why choose romances, or fated mate's romances.
