When Jake Cleary insists on taking Mallory on an impromptu trip to Venice, she tries her best to resist him. But she made a promise to go out with him, and Jake relentlessly holds her to it. Despite her protests, Mallory finds herself whisked away on his private jet.
The more time Mallory spends with Jake, the more she comes to know the man behind the cocky façade. She finds herself inexorably drawn to him, but will she bolt when he reveals his kinky sexual desires?

Can Mallory accept all of Jake? Will Jake learn to listen to Mallory as well? What is this power struggle between Mallory and Jake? What risks are they both willing to take? Your answers await you in Captured.
I know that I really liked it, but a few moments were a bit.. "not to my liking". The whole story is really lovely.. and I LOVE how it's playing, but some incidents were like a blast of icy water in the middle of the hottest shower!
Still, it has the potential to be a story that I love ;)
