Good morning and welcome back to the Saturday Spankings Blog Hop. Today I'm posting from Captive, Mine, a book I've been working on for more than a year now with author Trent Evans. The blurb is below but this is the scene where Lily wakes to find herself bound and alone, a captive...
It was cold. I woke up in a pitch-black room lying on something relatively soft, a mattress
maybe, on my side, hands bound behind my back and something covering my mouth. I inhaled a deep,
shaky breath, telling myself not to panic, which was impossible. I huddled into myself, shivering, trying
not to move, mentally scanning my body for injury, which, apart from aches of where I’d been
manhandled, I didn’t find.
There was no sound in the room aside from my own breathing. I opened my eyes but could see
nothing — it was too dark.
The last thing I remembered were DeSalvo’s words, the look on his face, then
being pinned back to the seat, Lake holding me with a cloth pressed against my nose and mouth.
Chloroform. He’d held it there until I had passed out.
Blurb
The day my father agreed to testify against Terrence Randall, one of the most ruthless drug traffickers in North America, was the day I became the target of the drug lord’s enraged vengeance. I was the one thing that stood in the way of Daddy’s testimony, and the one thing that could save Randall. The man would stop at nothing to get his hands on me.
I was prepared for what was coming — as prepared as one could be when vanishing into the U.S. Marshal’s Witness Protection Program.
I just wasn’t prepared for him.
For ex-Navy SEAL turned mercenary Lake Freeman, escorting Lily Cross into the Witness Protection Program was just another job — until a better offer came along. Lake couldn’t have cared less about the life he’d been hired to protect. After all, she was a part of the very organization that had cost him so much already.
At least he never expected to care.
But when forced into a decision he never thought he’d have to make, the mission became one of survival for himself and his beautiful charge. Lake knew that in order to protect her, he’d need to bring the feisty and unpredictable Lily to heel — he couldn't keep her safe if he couldn't keep her under control.
But that protective urge quickly turned into something else, something dark ... and his need to conquer, to claim, overrode all else.
He would keep her safe. He would keep her protected. But he would make her his, as well.
Now, all he had to do was figure out how to keep them both alive long enough to do it...

Thanks Roz!
Enjoyed Captive, Mine immensely. Congrats on the release. 5-stars all the way.
I started reading this last night and am only a few chapters in. All I have to say is - wow! It is intense, just like your snippet. Now here I sit with a ton of writing and editing to do on my Saturday and just wanting to read instead. I'm making reading this book part of my reward if I hit my WC today. :)
Reading this and Trent's snippets, this does sound very intense. I am definitely intrigued.
Thanks Alex. I saw your review on Amazon too and really appreciate that :) So glad you enjoyed it.
HAHA! I've been in your shoes before...many a time!! Thank you for the compliment, Livia. Now get to editing so I can have the next installment in the Passion series already!!
Etta, when I read scenes of this, my belly goes all funny. It's crazy and I hope other people are feeling that too. If you decide to read it, I hope you enjoy it.
Excellent snippet...you just hooked me.
I'm more than half way through this and if I ever finish these edits and writing, I'll get to finish it. I'm absolutely LOVING it. This has been what some of us have been wanting, I'm loving every single page.
The blurb totally captured me. Added to that, you and Trent together...what more could I want? Needless to say it's on the kindle.
Thanks Keriann!
Thanks Megan!! Glad you're enjoying it!
Fab snippet, and that cover is HOT.
OMG, Natasha, I just finished the book and it is one of the best books I have ever read. I loved it start to finish. You and Trent out did yourselves! You hit it out of the ballpark. Very edgy. You pushed the boundaries but did not break them. Intense is the word. I left a 5 star Amazon review. Well done!
Thanks Lucy!
Wow, thank you Jule! I just read the review too and wow! I'm so very grateful and so glad you loved it. That compliment up there is HUGE!!!
