"Captured in Croatia" by Christine Edwards - A Total Thrill Ride #Review #Giveaway


Captured in Croatia by Christine Edwards

Description:

Corporate spy Carew Sloan is sent to Zagreb, Croatia, to retrieve information for a private intelligence agency. Carew’s beauty and talent for computer decryption make her the natural choice for this sensitive mission. After charming her mark, Vasilije Juric, in one of Zagreb’s swanky dance clubs, Carew finds herself in Juric’s bedroom. It will take only a moment to gather the information she was sent for and make her escape. Or so she thinks.

Unfortunately for Carew, Juric has a keen-eyed bodyguard, Zoran, who pegged her instantly as trouble. After a high speed chase, he retrieves Carew from her wrecked car. Rather than turn the stunning spy over to his merciless boss, Zoran takes matters into his own hands and keeps the girl … as his captive. Zoran’s keen intelligence, striking features, and powerful physique prove hard to resist, and soon their mutual hostility takes a backseat to the torrent of lust neither can deny.

Will Carew follow her heart, even it means losing her livelihood? What other dangers await them both beyond Zoran's lair?

Overall
4
A hot, espionage thriller provides the backdrop for an unconventional romance. Don't plan on sleeping once you pick this book up. Do plan on some personal love time.

5
The setting is Croatia, and it is described in amazing detail – the scenery, the food, and the violence.

Hubba, hubba! I wanted to lick the page. There's a bit of violence mixed with the sex, but what can you expect in an interrogation?
Characters
4
Zoran is the very definition of an alpha male. Carew is more believable as a spy than many heroines.
Story
3
The plot is fairly standard. Spy gets caught, feelings develop between captor/captee, mayhem results.


Summary
This story stars the adrenaline pumping on the first page and it doesn't stop until the last one. The end wraps everything up a bit quickly, but I was too busy reveling in the glow to care. I devoured this book in one sitting, and want the next one ASAP. Captured in Croatia is a total thrill ride with a strong heroine. Yes, the story is fairly standard, but I was having way too much fun to care. The only problem is now I want to book a vacation in Croatia, and I damn well expect Zoran to be there.

Favorite Quote
He looks as if he spends all his free time doing full body pull-ups. With one arm. For fun.”
