Summary: Loved this book
Review: I have read almost all of Johanna Linsdey's books and this one was just as good as all of the rest! I loved this book. I can't believe everyone didn't!! I will admit that the beginning is kind of rushed, but, after the first few chapters, I couldn't put it down. I read it in one evening!! I love Lindsey's work and own almost all of them! This is a keeper and I will more than likely read it again and again!!

Summary: Awful!
Review: Being a fan of Johanna Lindsey's Malory series I bought Captive Bride and instead of enjoying this book like the Malory books I was very disappointed and I have to agree with Gina and other reviewers with why they don't like this book, I don't like it for the very same reasons and think the book is just awful! Sorry but abusive men just don't do it for me!

Summary: Great book!
Review: Ok, now I know a lot of people had problems with this book. But if you take into account that it was Lindsey's 1st book, written in 1977, then you'll realize that it's great for a first attempt. Both Phillip and Christina make you want to scream at times! And it is soooo degrading when he spanks her.
But the book is still a page-turner!

Summary: not too bad
Review: This was one of the first romance novels that i read and so i got quite hooked up. I muz say that it has certain entertaining elements like the adventure, the setting, etc. But now, after reading many other books, i find that this one is juz a typical romance like others: gorgeous hero&heroine, an unoriginal plot (Lindsey let her heroines be abducted and raped in many of her works!!), a big misunderstanding , the main reason of which is that those people juz can't open their mouth to admit their love. The characters are not so believable, Christina can easily fall for Phillip despite his brutish behaviour and foul temper. I cant help but feel that she falls bcoz of his good look and great sex, perhaps a teenage girl with crazy romantic notions may be a more suitable heroine.
On the whole this book is not so bad. juz keep in mind that u r reading a typical romance book, not an outstanding one.

Summary: Not her best!!!!!
Review: I am a fan of Lindsey....I will give her that it is her first novel. It is written poorly... It was written in a rushed fashion. But has I have said I have read her other novels and she progressed. the issue of "Rape" is a very touchly one however, I have read other novels and the whole "Capture woman and you are mines things are themes..." I still love lindsey.......

Summary: Captive Bride
Review: I thought this was an incredibly captivating book, if you'll excuse my pun. I simply could not put it down. I found the tension between the two main characters electrifying. It transported me to a whole new world that never failed to be interesting. The only downside is that the end lacked substance. I would have liked to see a more romantic, harmonic ending. On a whole it was an incredibly intruiging and fascinating work of romance.

Summary: Good, Good, Good
Review: This book is the epitome of true passion and eroticism, it opened my eyes. It has everything from lust to betrayal and love to hate. My very good friend let me borrow the book for two days, making me promise to return it. I read it in one day, AB-SO-LU-TE-LY could not put it down. Good writing, good caracters. Give it a try, please...

Summary: Not What I Had Hoped
Review: This could have been a steamy sexy book. But Lindsey opted to write a more Correct verison. I doubt that most female slaves in the Arabian empire were treated quite so well. Philip is the typical Arabian raised male, arrogrant, overbearing, and by our standards rude. He thinks all women such be kept in bed. Christina is a spoiled rich girl that has never had anyone tell her know. The clash of these to could have been powerful and erotic. It ends up being the same old story.

Summary: Best romance ever
Review: This romance novel was so great. I ended up reading it in one night because I couldn't put it down. As for the story, the taking captive part wasn't a new idea, but there is a new spin on it.

Summary: Unoriginal!
Review: I listened to Captive Bride because I liked the other Johanna Lindsey books I listened to on audio cassettes but I was disappointed in Captive Bride the story is so unoriginal it's been done so many times before! It Could have been better!
