Wow Felicity Brandon has certainly fallen down the dark, dirty rabbit hole with this book!
Dark? Oh yes.
Dub-con? Most definitely!
Non-con? teetering on the edge because while my head says yes my heart says no, since Sophie quite enjoyed it.
Should you read it? Only if you love dark reads, perverted BDSM, forced consent and have pulled your big person pants up.....
Oh and it is the first book in a series, so it ends on a cliffie. A very soft, gentle cliffie that leaves you panting for more. The 2.5 stars is because this dragged too much, there are plenty of hot sex scenes but the plot just didn't move on enough for me.
This isn't a nice consensual story, Sophie didn't invite Jared around for a cup of tea and offer him a bit on the side at the same time. The title contains the word 'Captive' for a good reason - Sophie is a victim of Jared's warped logic. However not only is she trying to fight him, she's having to fight her own body and desires. Oh and that is so evident and so well executed in the book.
I found myself really uncomfortable with many of the events, actions and reactions. Which is exactly how I like a dark romance to make me feel. There were times I wanted to shake Sophie, and I definitely needed to slap Jared (or possibly knee him in the balls). This book made me feel , which is exactly what a good book does.
I'm an impatient reader so, at times, I wanted to timeline to move forward at a faster pace. However that's me and the reason it didn't was because Ms Brandon was tormenting Sophie, and us, with scene after scene of dub-con, bondage, sexual torment, degradation, BDSM and Daddy Dom 'play'. I loved that a good chunk of this was set . It made the whole situation even more twisted and dark. It violated her sanctuary and safe space.
I really didn't like Jared at all, I don't think I was particularly meant to, but it did leave me wanting Sophie to escape and never look back.

Sophie is a housewife with 2 kids and a boring inattentive husband. She has recently bought some toys for the bedroom and researched their use on a BDSM site. Her husband finds the toys and is disgusted. He arranged for a crew to come clean the carpet and is more concerned over clean rugs. A crew shows up, but it’s not the cleaning crew. It seems our little Suzy Homemaker has been chatting online with someone, telling him her secret desires and he, his cousin and friend have come to collect her. Ms Brandon knows how to write a dark forbidden tale that you can’t put down. She has the female character doubting herself and torn between her duty to family and her dark desires and even feeling guilty for having them and blaming herself for this whole thing. Just remember folks, it’s fiction and if you don’t like it dark and forbidden you might want to read nursery rhymes...but they’re kind of violent if you really look at them.

This book captured my interest (pun intended) like few other books in this genre. The writing absolutely flows and the story is a brilliant twisted nightmare. It was dark, it was hot, it was sad, it was kinky, it was frightening and it was a definite page-turner. No spoilers here... But if you have ever thought that you wanted to live out your deepest, darkest fantasies, then this book might have you thinking twice about it. One of the better compliments I can give this book is that I am immediately moving on to book 2. Warning: this book contains more triggers than a Texas gun show so stay away if dub-con makes you uncomfortable. Loved it.

This is an intense book. I mean, it's very intense. I like intense, and this one left me flailing sometimes. It was a hard one for me to read sometimes, and I had to talk it over with my husband before I was able to make my way through all of my feelings about what was happening in the world.
I don't like Jared. Full stop. Flat out don't like him. I can often find a way to like the main male characters, even when they are total a-holes, but there's just something about Jared that I have a hard time connecting to. I'm looking forward to seeing what Felicity Brandon does with him.
I am really torn on Sophie. Sometimes I like her, sometimes I don't. I can relate to her. A little too much, maybe, sometimes. I think that's part of why I don't like her sometimes.
I like and hate this book. It left me with all kinds of complicated feelings and with a hangover that I am still dealing with.

I like being pushed out of my comfort zone. So when I read how this book could do this, I downloaded it and started reading. Yes, it did push me. There are differently some hard limits for some people and I respect that.
Sophie is a stay at home mom with two children, A husband who doesn't pay attention to his wife and when she wants to step out of the box when it comes to sex, He is very judgemental. Sophie starts chatting with Jared online. Jared is delusional and needs mental health. Hence “Captive “ in the title. Take it seriously. This will be a hard limit for some. There will be a time you will not be able to stand them both .n
Most sex scenes are steamy. Differently dark. Reason for my two stars, this book dragged on, and not enough of a storyline. The end is less than desirable and did not leave a cliffhanger as it should have.

Unless I missed something in the blurb, I think this ends in a cliffhanger? I really wish authors would indicate this; so many aren't now and it's really frustrating to me as a reader.
This is -- unlike many of Ms. Brandon's books that feature psychopaths -- somewhat consensual in that Jared does give Sophie the ultimate choice (“If you resist, then I will accept your decision. I’ll release you and we’ll be gone").
I realize that this is fantasy for anyone (i.e. most of us) who has ever longed to escape -- just for a little while -- from our routinized, somewhat boring domestic lives. In Sophie's case, she has a husband she loves, but who neglects her sexually and emotionally, and children she loves, but who can't always make up for the lack she feels in her life. I absolutely get this, and this book can certainly be read as the kind of daydream we all fall into in the middle of yet another mind-numbing day.
The problem is, however, Sophie's children: they -- unlike Sophie's husband -- didn't make the choice to be part of her "boring" life, and her first responsibility really does have to be to them (while I don't go in for the heteronormativity that so many of these "dark" romances display in, for example, their obsession with reproduction, if you are going to bring children into the world, seems to me you do have to be responsible for them). While she does worry about them occasionally, I really had to suspend a lot of disbelief that she didn't care more. At the end, she does realize that she . This is a seemingly insurmountable conflict and creates a lot of tension; thus, I'm invested in seeing how Ms. Brandon will resolve it without leaving us, quite frankly, hating Sophie -- particularly if we want to see Sophie and Jared together. I think a couple of scenarios are possible , but we'll see. At this point, however, I'm more interested in seeing how Ms. Brandon resolves this conundrum than particularly caring whether Sophie returns to her husband (her children are another matter) or stays with Jared. Jared, right now, is simply too cold for me. I know the author tends to soften (somewhat) her anti-heroes during her trilogies, so, again, we'll see what happens.
3 1/2 stars. For those not bothered by the issues regarding Sophie's children (or that she cheats on her husband), you'll probably enjoy this more since the erotic scenes are well-written, the interior monologues and situation create real emotional dilemmas within the characters, and Jared cares more about Sophie's physical well-being than other of Ms. Brandon's sociopaths have in the past.
Note: I adhere to the ratings system as laid out by Goodreads: 2 stars = it was okay; 3 stars = liked it; 4 stars = really liked it; 5 stars = it was amazing. I gave this book 3 1/2 stars because it drew me in and I liked the real dilemma Ms. Brandon portrayed even though I had issues with Sophie's attitude towards her children and I didn't find Jared all that mesmerizing. I do not think that every book I read is "amazing;" further, I think that it cheapens the rating system to always assign 4 or 5 stars. If a book really earns the 4 or 5 stars (and I realize that this is, to some degree, subjective), I'll give them -- but it certainly shouldn't apply to every book. Ymmv, and everyone should enjoy/rate these books as they wish.

HOLY WOW! Ms. Brandon AGAIN demonstrates she is one of the few truly outstanding writers of the DARK romance. For it takes someone of that high a writing skill to take a normally horrifying anti-H & cause the reader to ultimately love or at the very least be enthralled & mesmerized by him.
One of the things I find the most intriguing about her writing is how smoothly it flows, it has substance to entice & satisfy a reader without any fluff or padding of any kind. And the way she controls the reader's perspective, emotions & focus (at least THIS reader) with her light deft touch that nevertheless pulls you deep, deep, deeper into the lives & situations of her characters. STELLAR!
The basic premise of this DD/lg story may upset some readers, but that is the heart of this book, Sophie Bannister's (heroine/a wife & mother) internal struggle fighting 2 completely different sides of herself: one side is what society as a whole expects, & indeed what Sophie expects of herself while her other side, the dark & unsatisfied side, is the antithesis of what she's been to this point. And she (at least in this book) is stuck ricocheting from one side to the other in addition to trying to hang on to her sanity, & maybe even her life.
Ms. Brandon gives the reader both Jared & Sophie's POVs, allowing the reader access to Sophie's terror, lust, fears, desires, guilt & excitement. Her deep self-loathing even as she guiltily acknowledges her body's responses to her darkest wants. Her helplessness even as she fights not to lose herself in Jared's depraved fantasy.
And Jared (Daddy), oh my, Jared. Gorgeous, muscled, intense, frightening, DOMINANT & completely focused on Sophie (Little Girl). Is he crazy? Depraved? Truly in love with Sophie? Or? The reader is also privy to Jared's thoughts. To know how he planned, hoped, worked for his fantasy, WANTED his own Little Girl to love, care for, punish. But Sophie comes with baggage he never allowed for, thought of, & that baggage is a stark challenge to his dream fantasy. We feel his glee, his LUST, his need, his complete obsession with Sophie. His bone deep determination & rabid intention to keep her as his. FOREVER . . . .
This book is one wonderfully insane, twisted, dark, depraved AWESOME read.
For the reader who IS NOT afraid of the DARK, to plunge deep into a horrifying but compelling, fascinating & superbly written story, this is IT!
STELLAR & I looooved every page of it & cannot wait for book #2!

This is not a sweet romance love story.
It is dark.
It is dub con.
It is intense.
It is gripping.
Sophie is a housewife and the mother of two small children.
She loves her husband and her kids.
She loves her life.
But she also feels something is missing.
Her sexual desires and wants are leaning more and more into the BDSM sphere.
She tries to talk to her husband,Jason,about her needs but he shuts her down right away.
Every time Sophie tries to have a real conversation about it he is disgusted and won’t even hear her out.
Sophie needs to let out her frustration somehow.
So she turns to on online site.
Where she feels her anonymity is safe and secure.
She tells of her wildest fantasies and the things she’d love done to her.
What she absolutely doesn’t bargain on is those fantasies coming to life.
Jared has been looking for his perfect little girl.
He stumbles on her through a BDSM website.
Jared wants Sophie.
And he’s set his mind on taking her.
Here starts a complicated intricate “relationship”.
The body and mind are a complex thing.
The mind knows right from wrong.
Yet the body knows what feels good.
Even when it’s wrong.
Sophie is torn in this way.
She knows it’s wrong she’s been taken.
She knows it’s wrong to feel good in the arms of a stranger.
But her body feels it’s right.
Her body is responding to the thrills and pleasures.
That her mind know are wrong.
She’s torn to pieces over being taken away from her kids and from the way her body is responding to Jared’s touch.
There is no mind over matter in her situation.
Jared is a bad man.
He is no hero.
He is no romantic man.
He’s taken what he wants without remorse.
He feels no guilt or shame.
I’m not sure if he’s a psychopath or a sociopath.
Both?
A combination of the two?
Again I’m not sure.
What I’m sure about is that Jared finds Sophie perfect for him.
He WILL NOT give her up.
And he doesn’t care if she misses her children.
As I was reading and the story got more twisted.
I thought what in the world is Ms. Brandon giving her readers.
Then the intensity had me on the edge of my seat.
I was so gripped by everything that was happening and unfolding.
And suddenly I got to the end and thought the author was pure genius.
She wrote the twists,the feelings and emotions in such a way I was absolutely enthralled.
Even knowing how wrong the whole situation is.
She even has been captivated to the crazed Jared.
Yeah waiting and wanting book 2 ASAP!

I’m sitting here, after finishing this story, kind of stunned. Truly, I’m not exaggerating. What the holy heck did I just read? It’s so different, so unique, and such dark, naughty fun. I’m quite simply blown away.
This is not a sweet story... if ya don’t like the dark, don’t even think to walk in this world. But, if you’re like me, and you’re attracted to the sometimes trippy journey down the rabbit hole, then this is the story for you. Gah, it was delicious in its audacity! The willingness of this author to actually tackle this type of fantasy is inspiring. And she did it so very well....
Oh Sophie, be careful what you wish for; someone like Jared might actually show up. Like I said, delicious.
Felicity Brandon in one of my go-to authors. She puts out a book, I buy it. And she never lets me down. This is another success to add to her already long list. Highly recommended.

Deliciously dark!
This is definitely deliciously dark!! There is a line you need to remember when you go online and when you cross it there are consequences. It was hot! Well written.

I gave this 4 stars cause it to me felt incomplete ... I Love me some Felicity stories but on this one ... not so much and I wish to think something might have been going on in her life at the time for her not to give her all cause normally her stories captivate me... it was a good tale just did not have her normal uummph to it lacked going somewhere it seemed.. Sophie had desires to be a submissive and was playing online when the man she chatted with decided to "take her and make her his Little girl" but from there it does not really go much further .... so was very NOT Felicity type style ... Good storyline maybe she will have more on this story but for me ... did not care for the feeling of it being incomplete...

Sophie wants to experience various aspects of sex. Her husband objected and when he found all the toys she had bought he wasn’t happy so she went on a web side and started talking to Carl. Then she was waiting in for the men who were going to clean the house except the men who turned up were not there for that. They went upstairs and Sophie took them a cup of tea they gave her an injection and got her ready while she was out. They used her own toys on her and made her call the one she thought was Carl Daddy. Carl turned out to be Jared. I’m not going to spoil this but you will not be able to put it down.

Wow this book took me on a roller coaster of emotions. I didn’t want to stop reading it until I finally crashed from exhaustion and then I devoured it again the next day. Felicity Brandon has a another winner in Daddy’s Little Captive. Everything about this book pulled me in, the characters, the storyline and the overall feel of the book. I found it sexy and dark and extremely compelling. I can’t wait to read more about Jared and Sophie and I can't wait until the next book comes out. I’ve come to love and hate trilogies, I love for the story to not end and I hate waiting for the next book in the series.
October 2, 2019
This book took me by surprise! Ms. Brandon is a go to author for me and her books always take me to that dark place in my brain that I don't normally go. Daddy's Little Captive really shook me but in a good way. Yes, it's dark.....yes, it's twisted but as I read the emotions coming from Sophie were just overwhelming. I can't say certain things I want to because I'm afraid it would give the story away a wee bit but just know that I totally could NOT put this book down!!! Seriously, you need to get this book.
October 4, 2019
Wow, just wow. I've read dark and I've read twisted, now I can say I've read dark and twisted. This book had me turning the pages to see what was going to happen next.... and now.... I guess I just have to wait for the next.
Be warned, this is not a sweet love story, this is twisted, this is dark, this is like nothing I've read before, but if you like books like that, if you aren't afraid to be shocked then this is a very well written story that will keep you pulled in to the very end and leave you wondering where it could possibly go next.

This is a dark story with lots of dubcon. The main issue I had with this book is that Sophie has kids and a husband when she is abducted. I personally don’t like to read books were kids get abandoned. That being said if that doesn’t bother you, you’ll probably love the book. Sophie gets kidnapped by a man she was talking to online and he decided he wanted to be her daddy whether Sophie wants that or not. There’s lots of dubcon and steamy scenes throughout the book. It does end in a cliffhanger so I’m assuming there will be another book before any happy ending for these two.

WOW and WOW!! Daddy Jared takes and does what he wants and it is absolutely delicious and memorizing your in his world now and it is dark and twisted almost devious but oh what fun, no take backs on that wish Sophie and i really do feel for her she is so conflicted on her true inner feelings.
The writing just flows and you are not able to put this down it is so different and unique and nothing like you suspect. I am hooked and need more of Daddy.

Oh my goodness what a read!! As the saying goes be careful what you wish for you might just get so much more then what you were wishing for. And Sophie she so got that. But I don't know if I like the way Sophie and Jared relationship started but what I do know is that I hope she stays with him even with all the hardships they still might had to face. I so love when a author makes me hate and love the hero or more likely a antihero with all his dark side.

Holy crap! Not sure what I was expecting but it definitely wasn't this! Totally taboo and dangerous but so hot! I'll be honest and say I almost didn't finish this book because of the content as well as the non consent but I did because I know I really had to keep an open mind for many reasons. Reasons I'm sure most certainly know what I mean. The writing was amazing and really brought you in the mindset of both characters.

Too nonconsentual for me
While I like spanking books this one was different. It seemed too close to nonconsentual. I don't like that he ignores her fear for her children . Has no feelings about her worrying about them. He drugs and kidnaps her. She has conflicting emotions but feels tremendous guilt. I just didn't care for the story line at all. Maybe it is just to dark for me. It seems like there will be another book as it doesn't seemed finished yet. I won't buy it.

Be careful what you desire
There was no romance in this dark novel. Rather a wife with dark fantasies that she shared on line with a stranger. A neglectful
husband with lost interests. I didn’t like the fact that there were 2 children that lost their mother because the wife was taken

If you love dark....
This isn’t my usual read but I loved it. Felicity Brandon I a definitely one of my go to authors. She never lets me down and always gives me an entertaining read.

I cannot belive that I became seduced by Jared. Such is Ms Brandon's writing skill - I actually began to like him and that is despite the knowledge that he is a bad man, a kidnapper and stalker. I await with anticipation to see how this steamy wicked daddy story pans out!!!

No
Good grief, way over board in the age play!! How can she be okay with any of it? For her children's sake she shouldn't be accepting of any of it.

Read
September 14, 2022I’d like to say I read this as a dare but alas; that would be a lie lol. I saw this one circulating around Bookstagram and thought I’d give it a whirl…. a whirl it was. I WAS NOT PREPARED. Obviously I should have taken more heed of the word ‘captive’ in the title cause this book is just er, uncomfortable to say the least. It’s one thing to call yo man daddy once in a while but THIS… was just disturbing lmao. Yes it’s a dark romance so that’s expected but likeeeeee, no. Further, it was actually quite boring for the most part - the actual storyline dragged on and seemed to just be about nothing.
I’m not gonna rate it cause I honestly skim read most of it

Absodamnlutely loved this book‼️ Smoking hot sex scenes - love the characters& storyline; will be sad when I finish the series.
If you're triggered by dubious consent or bdsm - don't read - ones that do enjoy bdsm, you definitely want to read this series.

HOLY FREAK! That is the inner dialogue running on a continuous loop in my head. Over and over, while I sit here and try to collect my thoughts to write this review. I'm not sure where to even start...
I'm going to start by laying prostrate at Ms. Brandon's feet and worshiping her like the Goddess she is. She has once again left me in total awe with her mastery over the art of storytelling. She is an absolute genius! She sucks the reader so deeply into the story that they forget where they end and where the characters begin. She pushes the boundaries like very few authors would even dare, and does it so beautifully. Even after finishing the book a few days ago I'm still twisted in knots when I think of this story. I am left feeling disturbed and restless. I'm not sure I'll ever be the same again.
It's not like any other DD/lg story I have read. I can usually see how the story will reach it's HEA, but I'm not sure what the HEA in this one would be. I'm just as mixed up as Sophie and the emotions she's dealing with. I think that is what makes this one seem so dark. It's not just the typical dark themes, it's the not knowing which choice will bring the most pleasure.
This is an extremely intense read. It's DARK. Not just kind of dark, D-A-R-K dark. If you don't love the dark then don't pick this one up. However, if you love crossing that imaginary line of pleasure and pain, and you love walking on that edge of "can I finish this" and "should I walk away" then this one perfect. Perfect, perfect, perfect!
