CAPTIVE DREAMS

Author: Angela Knight and Diane Whiteside ISBN: 0425207757 9/2006 EROTIC FANTASY Publisher: BERKLEY SENSATION

Celeste and Corinne Carson are more than sisters—they're bestselling writers, each with a fantasy-fulfilling alpha-male hero. For Celeste, it's Jarred, a conqueror from the future. For Corinne, it's the barbarian Mykhayl from a world long ago. Devilishly sensual warriors, Jarred and Mykhayl have something in common themselves—they're both more real than their creators could have imagined. Fearing that the sisters are about to write them off, Jarred and Mykhayl decide to exact sweet revenge. The plan? Kidnap Celeste and Corinne, spirit them away to the very worlds of which they wrote, and persuade them to surrender to the sublime punishments of their own uninhibited imaginations.

RRAH's THOUGHTS AND PONDERINGS:

Imagine being swept away by your favorite hero to another time and place. For me, it would definitely be Jamie Fraser. Oh, but what if you're the author and the hero that you've been writing about for years comes for you—and he's not very happy about everything you've done to him in your books. Payback is sweet, especially the way your hero wants to pay you back...

Angela Knight and Diane Whiteside join forces and bring that premise to life in their highly erotic book, CAPTIVE DREAMS. This book is so incredibly hot! It is eroticism at its best, and it is definitely not for the faint of heart. Really, who doesn't like a bit of kinky fantasy sex once in awhile?

As mentioned above, Angela Knight and Diane Whiteside write about two sisters who are at an almost dead-end, writing about the same hero for years. Corinne and Celeste are very popular authors. Corinne is a romance author and Celeste is a science fiction author. As Celeste plots to kill off her hero, Jarred, once and for all, Corinne is trying to write a heroine worthy of her hero, Mykhayl.

What each sister doesn't know is that all these years, Jarred and Mykhayl have been real in their own imagined worlds, and they are not happy with the women who are plotting their next adventure or demise. Mykhayl has happened upon a way to join the sisters in their "strange world" and literally bring them to their knees (and on their backs, and standing up).

Diane Whiteside writes the first erotic story about Corinne and Mykhayl in Bound by the Dragon. You will blush—I guarantee it! While I tried to concentrate on their story, really, all I could concentrate on was their steamy sex-capades!

Angela Knight writes about Celeste and Jarred in her steamy story, Bound by the Dream. Just like Whiteside's story, it was unique and a bit hard to concentrate on since Celeste and Jarred have some wild sex themselves!

I thought CAPTIVE DREAMS was very well written and I loved the premise of the book. Granted, it is an erotic book and there is an abundance of graphic sex between the pages, so if that's not the type of book you want to read, then by all means, pass on reading it. But, if you don't mind reading erotic books, definitely go out and buy this book!
