For twelve years he has immersed himself in the world of pleasure slaves searching for the one man he holds ultimately responsible.

Blindfolded and bound, there is only a calm male voice to welcome her. His name is Caleb, though he demands to be called Master. Olivia is young, beautiful, na�ve and willful to a fault. She has a dark sensuality that cannot be hidden or denied, though she tries to accomplish both.

Or something along those lines. Write whatever you want and slap my name on it. I loved it that much.' - Colleen Hoover, #1 New York Times Bestselling Author"I have never had an author move me to the point that I felt I needed to get in my car and go after someone who was fictional." --Tina Reber, NYT and USA Today Bestselling Author of the LOVE series"Absolutely amazing! I have not been this captivated by a book, by a series, in years! Thank you to everyone who told me to read these." -- Aleatha Romig, NYT Bestselling Author of the Consequences series"I'm very stingy with five stars. I usually only give those to modern classics or books that I am absolutely crazy about. Here is why I think CID deserves five...." -- Tarryn Fisher, USA Today Bestselling Author of the Love Me With Lies series"Just know that I think it was an exhilarating (albeit somewhat exhausting) reading experience and I LOVED it. And... I appreciated it even more once I was done. I felt mostly... complete. Crazy right? Ahhh but sometimes, it just is what it is. It was rich, well rounded, uncomfortable, exciting and scary (in multiple ways). Emotionally affecting. I lived it, I didn't just read it, although I was VERY happy to be on this side of the book. *phew* I may enjoy the fictional thrill and I may like it crazy at times, but I'm very content on the "safe" side of life." -- Maryse, Maryse's Book Blog

"This Book Is Definitely Not For Everyone And Is Truly A Dark Romance!!! Now Somehow The Romance In This Book Just Works You Should Be Angry Or Disgust But Like It Is Just So Well Written And Honestly You Could Totally Realistically See How The Realtionship Takes Place. I Will Be Totally Spending Money To Read The 2nd One"
"Captive in the Dark is book one of the Dark Duet. I have had this book sitting in my kindle for a while and have no clue why I waited to read it. I am glad I finally did. <br/> <br/> For me, Captive in the Dark is a quick read. If you are looking for hearts and romance with Hea, turn around this book is not for you. There are many triggers, such as kidnapping, sexual assault, to name a few. If you follow me because of my love of dark romance, stay aboard. <br/><br/> <br/>Caleb, you're going to love to hate him. Kidnaps Olivia to use as a pawn to seek revenge. His back story for revenge is brutal. You will cry for him. Caleb has six weeks alone with Olivia to train her as a sex slave, till the next step. <br/><br/> Olivia, or Livvie, she likes to be called, is just trying to live her mundane life, has her own struggles; we learn throughout the book. She is a lot stronger what people give her credit. Once kidnapped, Livvie is instantly put into the darkness. <br/><br/> Captive in the Dark is brutal and disturbing. I started to warm up to Caleb, and at times I had to question my morals as to why. I should hate everything he is doing and stands for. There were a few times I had to put the book down and regroup. I still wouldn’t have had it any other way. The book is written from Livvie and Calebs POV with a third party And I am very impressed with the author's writing. We are left as to what will happen next after Livvie learns her fate."
