I’ve been sold.On my eighteenth birthday, I’m given a present no one would want. I’m sold to three Xandari warriors, merciless aliens with egos the size of Jupiter, and bodies built for battle. Massive brutes who look like gods, with voices like thunder, who will use and enjoy me any way they choose. Barbarians who promise to punish me severely for the tiniest infraction.My name is Danika, but … infraction.
My name is Danika, but they don’t call me by name. They call me nayna. Slave.
To make matters worse, their world is in the middle of a war with the Rith, a terrifying species out to destroy all that they have. To escape my alien masters means a slow and painful death at the hands of their enemies.
I hate their planet, I loathe them, and I’ll fight tooth and nail to get home. If I don’t, these ruthless barbarians may not only steal my innocence and my freedom—they may take my heart.
***Captured is the first novel in the Xandari Chronicles. It’s a dark alien standalone, and features a reverse harem relationship with an HEA. No cheating, no choosing. Contains D/s elements, and dark themes where a woman has no rights, and three harsh, savage aliens who take what they want.
You’ve been warned.

This book isn’t just a little but dark but it is immersed in dark romance. I loved the entirety of this book and it’s characters. I’m excited to see what this series has in store.
I found this book to be very intriguing. The author created an alien world that was filled with deceit, drama, slavery and steamy scenes. I found myself feeling her dismay, anger, disbelief and unwilling attraction. I totally bought into the storyline. I hope there will be more of this strange but entertaining and interesting world. Recommend
The Xandar home for girls is not what it seems. This place is downright EVIL!!!
Danika found out the hard way when her friend Shelly helps drug her and she’s taken into space to a war torn planet to be a Nayna ( slave ) to her three Masters Raul, Malek and Z’Pheer .
I am warning you now this is a Dark 400 + page Sci Fi RH standalone with an HEA ,but it’s anything, but sweet butterflies and rainbows between the captive and her Alien rulers. Although I did love Tarku the Pink Dog like creature with teeth like Razors .
These stoic extraterrestrials are Ruthless , Domineering and Sexy AF in the bedroom….the things you will read within these pages will make you blush .
I will say The authors did a great Job of bringing not only the characters, but us as readers to that boiling point of Anger at Danika’s continued humiliation and her Captors and their planets total sexisms. I myself enjoy the darker parts of the book ,but the little sprinkles of Humor that were planted throughout the book kept me intrigued and wanting to read more books in this series .
Captured was a great story,interesting and engaging.
The storyline was good, the character good with chemistry steaming your reader.The story was filled with action, suspense and more. Danika is a fighter, but if you get this Alpha men…She had her hands full with each of her men.
I enjoyed this story

This is my first time reading anything by these authors and I want to start off by saying read the blurb, when they said this was dark, they meant it! I thought the plot was an interesting one and it really caught my attention. The characters are well developed and interesting, the story is told from the female, Dannika’s point of view. There is lots of action, suspense, and steam in this book. It’s a full-length book so be prepared to spend a few hours reading it, I only put the book down long enough to make a fresh cuppa and then I was back to reading. I’m definitely looking forward to reading more from these authors.

“Damka nayna” – Good slave
—>>> Danika’s story begins with a betrayal so big, her head is spinning to adjust. Three huge Xandari warriors steal this young woman from all she has known and speed her to their strange alien world, taking possession of her body and mind, but not her fighting spirit. If anything, her new brutal masters relish and encourage her, delighting in putting her into her place as their “nayna.” Her personal challenges such as communicating with these males pales, though, in comparison to what these alien barbarians will face when they return home with their “prize” in hand.
This author duo delivers a captivating start to their new series, and I love their brand of dark sci-fi romance!
This was a great book with action and suspense. The characters are great and was hooked to the story. I couldn’t put the book down. It’s a dark read so if you love books like that then I recommend reading.

After a terrible home life Danika thinks her life has turned around when she is taken in by a girls home but on her 18th birthday she finds out she has been sold to three aliens and they are now her masters. Xandari males are big, sexy and do not take no for an answer. Danika is not only on a new planet but her translator is broken and she cannot understand what the three barbarians want. Can she ever get home or if she gets the chance will she even take it? This is long story and it starts out a little slow but once you are over the hump it gets really good. I enjoyed the power exchange and Danika learning what she really wants. This is a super hot read with a little M/M thrown in for spice. I am so happy there was not a cliffhanger you get to see what happens when Danika gets her HEA with her males. If you enjoy D/s reverse harems this is a story you will definitely like. Looking forward to the next book.
I enjoyed reading this deliciously, dark Sci-Fi reverse harem romance. The plot is quite dark & interesting with unexpected situations but there are some grammar & spelling errors. The male characters are realistically portrayed as cruel, domineering brutes & the female character is portrayed as emotional older than her physical age.
There is: a naïve but feisty young woman (Danika) sold on her 18th birthday to three Xandari warriors (Raul, Malek & Z’pheer) who are in a triad relationship, twists & turns, intrigue, suspense, deceit, betrayal, abduction, action, threats, danger, violence, conflict, enemies, war, injuries, humiliation, ruthlessness, domination/submission, BDSM, non-consensual scenes, dubious consent scenes, explicit sexual scenes & strangely enough there is attractions, protectiveness, acceptance, compromises, choices, well-intended manipulations, laughter, love & a well-earned happy conclusion.
This is a Dark story. There is kidnapping, slavery, and some sexy scenes (Ok forces) that some people wont like. I happen to like them. Danika is sold on her birthday to three Xandari Warriors, Raul, Malek, and Z’pheer. She thought she was auditioning for a singing gig at the biggest nightclub in her hometown. Guess what happens. She’s sold to the biggest, badest, bossiest warriors she’s ever met. Did I say they were also really hot! This is a story that you won’t want to put down. I love SCI-FI romance and this is the first book I’ve read by these two authors. I can’t wait till the next book.
