Hostage to Pleasure by Nalini Singh

4.0

The world building in this book was fabulous and the plot was well thought out. I enjoyed the banter between MCs most of the time. The FMC was strong, fierce, and protective with an impressive ability to adapt. The MMC was not very adaptable and that stunted much of his character growth.
I wanted to like this book more, but it was repetitive. The author filled internal dialogue and narration with reiterations of previous statements and ideas. She especially overused “male” and “female”. I understood their genders early on, I don’t need a descriptor every few minutes.
Overall, well written book.

Spice: 2.5/5

Triggers: child abduction, mention of child abuse, murder, violence/gore
