I received an arc of this title from NetGalley for an honest review. I could not get into this book, even though I tried several times.

I felt that the lead was made out to be a sheltered young girl but it was said that she had escaped from polygomy and abuse so that didnt really add up to me. I found the whole 'kidnap' thing between the characters slightly disturbing and the fact that the main repeatedly asks the brothers not to have sex with her but they do anyway is questionable. although the author promises a happy I felt more like the lead started to suffer stockholm syndrome than fall in love. Not what I was expecting at all from the blurb.

Alright let's be real for a moment, I feel bad for not posting a review when this book released last year. I didn't post a review because honestly I couldn't get into the story. At first I thought it was something with me and my reading preferences at the time, but after the fourth time of picking this novel up and trying to read it, I have to give up.

I made it through to the forty percent make and then skipped to the sixty five percent mark before making my decision on dnf-ing this one.

When I read a book that has 'captive' in the title I expect a few things. I expect this book to be seriously dark, I expect the captors to be twisted and intriguing, and I expect a storyline that will keep me on the edge of my seat throughout the novel.... Sadly, I didn't get any of this.

The only person I remotely liked in this novel was Reed. He had his moments where I was left hanging on the edge of my seat, but he never actually had me falling out of my seat, if that makes sense.

Overall, I went into this one with hope that I would be sucked into yet another amazingly dark and twisted read, but sadly that wasn't the case. This one was a big no for me. I expected more from this novel and to be honest, some of the content I couldn't get past.

I didn't care for this book. Even though Everly days agree feel Inn love with Reid and Zane they took her against her will as a captive. This is just wrong! And their first night together they take her. Why? If they were so in love with her, why not be with her the right way? This was not my type off book.

This was a first read for me by this author and I found it a little slow to get into the story.
I did like the characters but just found the pace of the story too slow

Everly is in the process of getting her life back together when she is kidnapped by Zane and Reid. Will she escape or will her captures convince her to stay. This is a fast-paced read with lots of drama and suspense. It is on the dark side and may not be for everyone. The story has plenty of twists and turns with a lot of steamy. I loved it!

Pregnant and heartbroken Everly is trying to turn her life around and get a fresh new start..

Brothers Reid and Zane will stop at nothing to have Everly and give her whatever she needs.. Their gentle touch makes it easy for Everly to submit and give them everything.

Back to Black by Katerina Winters was an interesting story. The book starts out with Everly and her everyday life. Two men are in the story a construction worker who is nice and a bit Alpha and a substitute professor who is dark, intimidating, and very Alpha. I found myself intrigued and a bit confused as to what exactly is going on here. Well, these two men are brothers who kidnap her and take her to their isolated cabin on an island because they tell her that she is theirs. Again, interesting twist. Everly first tries to get away from them, but eventually falls for both of them, when she discovers that she is indeed perfect for them. I thought the first part of the book was great and the interesting, the middle was okay, and the end was okay. It felt like two different people wrote this story. An interesting story that was a bit disturbing in its concepts of what was acceptable behavior. I gave it three stars due to the intrigue in the first quarter of the book.

An okay fiery romance with some plot. I liked the premise but the follow-thru lacked some depth. Overall good writing.

Everly had a harsh Life. She had lived in the secluded community and with Her Life tuning upside Down due to Her pregnancy. More plot would spoil The read.
Especially when There is not a lot of plot besides triggers. This read was dark and for się not for everyone as its giving with a lot of triggers - abduction, not wholly consensual sex and keeping woman against Her will.
Reid and Zane are using barbaric methods to get to Everly (one as Her professor and The other one as her coworker).
Will There be an HEA for those three? How will their story follow? No one can be sure what will happen between them.

Everly Pengram managed to escape her strange upbringing only to fall foul of a manipulative college professor who abandoned her when she fell pregnant. She picked herself up and started a new course in another town and vowed to do her best by her future child. She works at a bank where she meets Zane an intense but roguish construction worker, but not is all as it seems. Intense storyline.
I voluntarily read and reviewed an advanced copy of this book. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

Back to Black started off as it seems every other book seems to, but when you get further along this book outshines. Your introduced to Everly Pengram and her substitute professor. The chemistry between the two is amazingly written. Then you follow her to work where she has amazing chemistry with a construction worker. As the book moves forward things fall like dominoes into place and Everly is whisked away unwillingly to a place in the woods where she learns what she thought she knew, were lies and misdirected truths. I received this as an arc through Netgalley.

I highly recommend this book

Interesting!

Definitely not your typical boy meets girl love story. The way the boys go around to getting the girl is freaky but they all find their way to a wonderful HEA.

I voluntarily read an advanced copy.
