Summary: An emotional pull
Review: I was not sure if I would have enjoyed this type of book but I took a chance. From the very start of this book you felt the emotions of the characters. I had tears in my eyes during the release of people from the fort and the devastation they went through. I found myself again with tears during Amanda's and Chingue's escape later and the results of it. It was very interesting how the author wrote in Chingue's language and put the meanings at the bottom of every page when it was used so you understood what was said. This book definitely pulled on my emotions more than I liked. The only thing I did not like was Amanda's lack of compassion to any of the men that were in love with her. I just wanted her to make up her mind and stick to it. She seemed so cold and didn't even once display the kind of emotion you see in Chingue, Robert or Adam. It started to get on my nerves that she appeared selfish at times and never fully opened up no matter how good Chingue was to her or Adam was to her. But She does get better in the book and I won't spoil the story. The author does make you feel as though you are experiencing their pain and that surprised me. I believe I will go check out more of Elaine Barbieri's books.

Summary: CAPTIVE ECSTASY
Review: This is my favorite book by Elaine Barbieri. I have lost count of how many times I have read CAPTIVE ECSTASY, and I'm sure I'll read it again. Ms. Barbieri has a way of making you love her characters. My only problem is that she does not write them fast enough. Give me more, Ms. Barbieri!!

Review: What can i say? This book is just great. I have lost count of how many times i have read this. I love books about a woman being so beauterful that nearly everyone in sight falls in love with her, so completely that nothing could stop them trying to win her love. I just pretend im her. Sigh. You must read...
