I read the first Devil Riders book, The Stolen Princess. I personally, found this second book, His Captive Lady, better than the first. This story had more believability than the first book. Also, I found the main characters more endearing. You get to know both of them well and hope it will all turn out ok in the end.
I liked the hero Harry Morant and his heroine, Lady Helen (Nell). I also, enjoyed the secondary story within the book, about Ethan Delaney and Miss Tibby, a lovely addition, too.
All round a great read and I am about to start Book 3, the next Devil Rider, Rafe Ramsey.
Thank you Anne Gracie, I love your books. Please keep more coming!

Harry’s Story
England 1818
Harry Morant’s tough exterior hides a badly scarred heart. Home after eight years at war, Harry is planning a practical, unemotional marriage. But his careful plans are threatened by an unexpected passion for an unknown lady.
A lifetime of lies has brought Lady Helen (Nell) Freymore to the brink of ruin. Forced into a marriage she never thought to have, she soon finds herself powerfully drawn to this deceptively gentle soldier… and increasingly worried about his reaction once he discovers her secret.

the best type of romance....a fairy tale with multidimensional characters.
2014年11月30日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済みAmazonで購入
This is the best type of romance: I was so engrossed in the story that I didn't realize that I had tears falling off my face until, like miss Tibbs, they hit the page. I had both laughter and tears while reading this book, Anne Gracie is my new favorite author!
Anne Gracie has the gift of creating beautiful characters with believable conflicts. Too often one must suspend common sense in order to enjoy a Romance novel. While not perfectly practical, it is a delightful book with a satisfying ending. I hate books that a simple misunderstanding ruins the plot....when I curse the author for not having the characters actually solve their problems by being grown ups.
I particularly enjoyed the family aspect of the story. Aunt Maude is a delight. The fraternal fondness of the soldiers and brothers was simple and true. none of the characters are one dimensional and the characters who are women who have not been perfect are not treated as horrible women, but compassionately and with respect.
The conflicts between the H and h were reasonable and didn't make me cringe with an eye towards the dysfunctional .....it is a beautiful fairy tale. I am glad that I read it....in one day! Sad that I read it so quickly but happy that this is one in a series.
My only complaint is the lack of Epilogue.

émouvant - très bon
2011年8月23日にフランスでレビュー済みAmazonで購入
Le meilleur de la série jusqu'à ce jour (il en manque un encore je crois). Il vaut mieux commencer par le début et lire the stolen princess. Mais ce deuxième livre nous fait partager des émotions très fortes. Un homme qui est amoureux fou d'une jeune femme et qui veut l'aider à tout prix sans connaitre son histoire, une femme violée dont le bébé issu du viol a été volé par son grand père et qui cherche avec tous ses moyens ce bébé dont la disparition la hante.
Pas grand chose à voir avec le résumé n'est-ce pas ? Ce livre fait passer un moment fort. Le style de Anne Gracie ,qui certes a tendance à se répéter, nous fait ressentir les sentiments des personnages d'une façon très forte, un peu à la Linda Howard.
A lire absolument.

Enjoyable series

I have enjoyed all 3 of the books in this series that I’ve read so far, but I don’t understand why there’s no story featuring Marcus. He plays a part in each book and is Gabe and Harry’s oldest brother. I know the series is about the Devil Riders: Gabe, Harry, Rafe, and Luke, but why have a book about Nash (the second eldest Renfrew brother), when he was not a Devil Rider, and not Marcus? It feels like something is missing in the whole series. Please consider writing Marcus’ story!
