Forbidden Captive Bride: An Enemies to Lovers Billionaire Romance

by Sienna Adams

I married the wrong twin.
Now the woman I claimed might burn my empire to the ground.

Gabrielle Monroe was supposed to be broken.
Trained. Built for seduction.

But I saw the change the second she stepped into my ring.
Softer curves. Sharper tongue. Zero fear.
Not the trembling girl sold into my empire a week earlier.

I should’ve punished her for the lie.
Instead, I married her.
Forced her into my bed.
Tattooed her finger with my name.

She was supposed to fear me.
Instead, she looks at me like I’m worth saving.

She doesn’t flinch when I get cruel.
Doesn’t crumble when I test her.
Doesn’t see a monster—she sees a man.

But the blood on my hands built the cage she’s trapped in.
My family killed her father to build this empire.
And when the truth comes out, she won’t run.

She’ll hate me.
And I’ll lose the only person who ever saw me.

She takes her sister's place and gives Dominic a good run but the chemistry between them is explosive. Will it hold up when she finds out his connection to her father. This intriguing story had me all caught up in Dominic and Gabby.

This mafia romance book is written flawlessly and the way Dominic and Gabby are written is perfect. I think my heart skipped beats at times especially when Sera called Gabby. However, my heart rate spiked at times as well with the suspense of what would happen next. Sienna has a best seller right here just waiting for you to read it and fall in love with the storyline as well.

Forbidden Captive Bride by Sienna Adams was a fast paced mafia novella.

The character development was fantastic for a novella! The story, the twists and turns… fantastic! The only thing wrong was that it could have been longer 😂😂😂

This was a taste of Sienna’s writing and it made me want to read more.

[Kerry-Anne Nabb · Rating 3 out of 5]

The plot is there, I just feel like it’s missing something. There is plenty of spicy scenes . I never got the feeling throughout that it was mafia, more of just bad guys selling women.

There is a lot of grammar mistakes throughout.

I loved the development of Dominic.

I would have liked to of known what happened to his father, he just seems to of disappeared within the pages.

Forbidden captive bride was Dominic and Gabby’s story. It was an intriguing read. I got an early copy. And voluntarily leaving this review.

[Kristina Schurmann · Rating 4 out of 5]

Honestly, I was not prepared for this book. It definitely is a bit dark. Gabby is such a strong woman that does the unthinkable for her sister. Dominic ends up turning his family's empire upside for her. I could not put it down. Another great read from Sienna Adams!

Forbidden Captive Bride

I enjoyed reading this book, beautiful story about love and strength between sisters, and even brothers. It was well written and worth reading.

This book took me by surprise. I am not a millionaire/billionaire romance kinda gal. Normally those are instant turn offs, however the cover really got me as did the title. Curiosity won over and I read this and found that I absolutely loved it. There were so many twists and turns I did NOT see coming. I loved the MMCs possessive side. That burn the world down for her vibes. The author absolutely hit the nail on the head for me. I will return and read more of this authors books. I received this book as an advanced review copy for free, and am leaving this review voluntarily

There were 2 things that I could not overlook that ended up losing out the 1/2 point each that could have pushed this to a 5 star read for me. First was that the punctuation, quotation, and other things such as general grammar. I do recognize that some errors happen however it was a tad frequent in some places. The other small issue was in 3 places that were highly noticeable and confusing the book is written in 2 separate tenses. This book is written in present tense and gives me the feel that I am there with them and it is happening in real time. I love that! Unfortunately there were those 3 spots were the book was written in past tense which could be confusing. That cost a 1/2 point each but the story, plot, subplots, character arcs were overall PHENOMENAL! Amazing read and read smooth from line to line. *also the spice was spicing!

Captive Bride Chaos

OMG Besties… "Forbidden Captive Bride" had me reading this in one sitting. I went in expecting a quick spicy billionaire–captor setup, but Sienna Adams gave me PLOT. Gabby stepping in for her twin? The way she risked everything to save her sister? Queen behavior. And Dominic… sir, why am I swooning over a man who literally forced a marriage and kept her captive?

Their dynamic is chef’s kiss: enemies-to-lovers with razor-sharp tension, forced proximity that stays DELICIOUSLY toxic, and a hidden identity twist that keeps the pages flying. Gabby is strong, smart, and refuses to break, and Dominic is the exact brand of morally grey menace we live for.

This was a fast read with plot, angst, and spice. Besties… you HAVE to add this to your TBR!

My Ratings: ⭐ 4.5/5 ▪︎ 🥵 3/5

Forbidden Captive Bride by Sienna Adams

I loved the way this story came together! The numerous twists and turns kept me hooked right up until the end. I gave this book five stars because it quickly became one of my favorite reads—I had such a hard time putting it down.

The story begins with Dr. Gabrielle (Gabby) Monroe performing surgery when her twin sister, Sera, calls twelve times in three minutes. Sera is trapped on Kingston Island, where she’s being trained as an elite escort for billionaires after her husband, Alexei, traded her to pay off his gambling debts—all while she’s pregnant.
