A review by rainelle_barrett
The Captive by Grace Burrowes

5.0

I found the book to very entertaining. The characters actions or reactions fall into line with their motivations or set goals with the plot. These moments are logical to the outcome of the story. From my perception of the story, I thought Chris was very much in conflict with his PTSD. Most of the story Expressed how Chris tries to overcome this hardening medical depression.
The true light to Chris is his daughter Lucy,who is his light. The background story pulled me right in. Having Gillian being the heroine is simply marvelous. She was almost like Mary Poppins floating in and out of each room or some dilemma that’s hard for Chris to cross over. The book is a page turner.
Some of the more elegant or elaborate wording through me off which distracted my attention to the scenes in that part of the story. Keeping the wording simple in the book helps readers like me keeps the engage more in the book. The characters are all awesome. The emotions are very real and felt through the characters dialogue and actions. This is a wonderful story of love and romance.
Until next time my fellow readers… read on! I received a copy of this book from the author in exchange for an honest review.
