Summary: An Indian who can fight through anything. Except...
Review: James McKenzie's wife is dead but his daughter Jennifer, lives. A man who slaughter's Indians has sent for his step-daughter. From the moment James layed eyes on her at a party the fires were lit, but were slowed and almost burnt out when he found her real identity. The book was excellent and you would sit turning the pages just waiting to see what would happen next, or at the next meeting of the two as they slowly fall in love with each other.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I couldn't put it down
Review: Make sure you read "Runaway" first because you are introduced to James "Running Bear " McKenzie in it and he like his brother is hot. Jarrett and Tara are also in it so loved that as well. I loved this story and the detail Heather Graham puts to it. You feel as if you are there. I can't wait to finish the series.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: CAPTIVE is captivating!!
Review: Teela Warren is engaged to marry a career military officer by order of her brutally abusive stepfather, however, the fiance knows that Teela's heart belongs to a half-breed Seminole accused of murder, kidnapping, and treason, among other things, James 'Running Bear' McKenzie.

James McKenzie, introduced in Runaway, is obsessed with Teela, though he grieves the death of his beloved wife and child; though he carries the weight of the Seminole nation on his shoulder; though he fears constantly for the lives of his white family and friends, lives that could easily be snatched within an instant; though he realizes that he can offer Teela nothing but an open sky and a hungry belly, he is still obsessed with her, and she with him.

Captive is captivating. Exciting, exhilirating, and sensitive. Captive will have you in tears, routing for the Native Americans that were so brutally decimated in Florida for land; but will also have you grieving for the innocents murdered in revenge. You will applaud the strength of leaders such as Osceola and understand their Native American's strength to endeavor. Graham's ability to capture the essence of the inner strength of the Seminoles is applauded!!

If you are not familiar with the Florida McKenzies', I suggest that you start at the beginning of Graham's sensational series, 'Runaway'. 'Runaway' introduces Jarrett McKenzie, James's brother and explains the relationship between the McKenzies and the Seminole Nation. 'Captive' picks up the story of James McKenzie and gives historical details of the 1830s decimation of the Seminole Nation; and 'Rebel' allows us to see baby Ian, Jarrett's son, as a full-grown replica of his father fighting the Civil War in his marriage bed, while 'Surrender' introduces James eldest son, Jerome, fighting the Civil War on sea, land, prison and in love. Following is 'Glory', Jarrett's second son, Julian, a skilled and talented physician, and 'Triumph', continues and ends the story of both Jarrett's and James youngest headstrong daughters and their relunctant marriages to opposing Civil War soldiers. And if you enjoy the McKenzies, why I believe you'll enjoy the Camerons in 1. Sweet Savage Eden, 2. A Pirate's Pleasure, 3. Love Not a Rebel, 4. One Wore Blue, 5. One Wore Gray, 6. One Rode West.

Happy Readings!!!

Summary: Enjoyable ...
Review: This was an enjoyable book. While certain aspects of the "build up" of the romance between the two characters played out a little long for my tastes, it was nonetheless a decent read.
