I'd told Charlie once that life wasn't a fairytale and I wasn't Prince Charming, but in my wishes, I'd imagined storming the castle and freeing the princess. That's what she was to me: my Princess.
Alexandria Charli Montague Collins is mine. She belongs to me. I’m not a good man, but I’m the only fucking bad I want near her.

“Nox, this isn’t your battle; it’s mine. I have to fight it.”
“Princess, you can, with me by your side.”

Entrapment was beyond unbelievable and an affront to the reader's intelligence. It was obvious that Romig was playing the puppet master, manipulating her characters to the point this story moved from being suspenseful to becoming a caricature of good Southern gentility.
The premise of an arranged marriage between Charli and Bryce (as stipulated by Charli's grandfather's Will) to the point that Charli is kidnapped then held hostage, was flawed.
This reader imagined so many scenarios that could have effectively incapacitated Alton thereby rendering his control over Charli and her "Momma" (God, I hated that word) ineffectual.
This book also depicted southern women as mere figureheads willing to debase themselves by allowing their men to physically, mentally and psychologically abuse them while maintaining a "men will be men" persona.
If I were a woman from the South, I'd be extremely offended by Entrapment.
Romig was ambitious in setting this story in five parts which perhaps is a strategy that worked well with her other books but, not so much with this. This entire book could have been tacked on to book 3 as no more that 1 or 2 chapters and we still wouldn't have missed any major developments.
Writing words on paper does not make a story. We need dialogue that's authentic; a plot sequence and pace that's authentic; character development that supports the plot and is, here's that word again, AUTHENTIC!. As much as I've loved her other books, my advice to Ms. Romig is: Be authentic and more isn't always better.
Serials 1-3 were quite entertaining this however, was mere filler.

Betrayal (Infidelity, #1)
Cunning (Infidelity, #2)

“I may not be a princess and Nox may not be Prince Charming, but the clock had struck midnight. My time had run out.”
“It would be easy to be saved, to be rescued. But Nox had told me he wasn’t Prince Charming, and I refused to be the damsel in distress. This was my fight.”
Aleatha Romig
The sum of intertwining pasts, lies and broken rules equals.... Entrapment."Entrapment" is the fourth book in this crazy series and to be honest, I was a little apprehensive about diving in. So much had happened in the previous books. There were so many twists and turns that had left us gasping, so many pieces of a messed up puzzle that had left us shocked and so there was a part of me that wondered whether I would remember everything that had happened or whether things would start to feel a little disjointed because I'd forgotten some of the links. Nope, it didn't happen. In fact everything came flooding back the minute I began to read and it took no time at all to immerse myself back into the world of the Montagues, the Demitri's and of course the Collins, although I have to say, there were moments I felt like I had stepped into some kind of parallel universe when it came to some of these characters. Seriously, were these people for real? Some of them really did have a screw loose!!!
I'd told Charlie once that life wasn't a fairytale and I wasn't Prince Charming, but in my wishes, I'd imagined storming the castle and freeing the princess. That's what she was to me: my Princess.This book was just brilliant and so completely addictive. It drove me mad reading it but it was so worth it. My nerves are grateful there is only one more instalment to go. Then I can go get counselling and begin my recovery. Another ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ Aleatha and so well deserved. I'm going to go get myself a whiskey now to calm myself down, god knows I need it!!!
