A review by readermonica
The Captive by Grace Burrowes

4.0

I started my love of romance novels by reading historical romances. Reading The Captive reminded me just why I love this sub-genre so much. Burrowes gives the reader everything that you could want in a historical romance. You get intrigue and danger right off the bat with Christian and his battle for survival and freedom. We get a heroine with a tender heart but is not without backbone and spirit of her own in Gilly. Gilly has her own set of wounds and dangers to face while trying to help Christian and his daughter Lucy to heal and find each other. Burrowes provides a richly told story that will keep you following Christian, Gillian, and even Lucy down their difficult and painful road to recovery. The Captive is a traditional historical romance done right. This was my first time reading a Grace Burrows book but it definitely not be my last!

**I received an ARC in exchange for an honest review.**
