New writer to love: Erica Stevens (Captive Series)

“I'm yours Braith, I'm yours. Take it. Take Me. I want to be the one that satifies you, not them.” ― Erica Stevens, Captured

Hello, book lovers. 

As I scrolled through the free kindle reads list of the day, I found this amazing book titled Captured, by Erica Stevens. It is a free ebook with an unpresumptuous yet eye-calling cover; a simple bloodied white rose. (See below the text for the image) The book is a dystopian novel and it tells the story of Aria and Braith. The story is set in alternate reality in which the world is dominated and reigned by a vampires monarchy and its brethren. After centuries of living from the shadows and being hunted almost to extinction, the vampires declared war to humans and reversed the roles, as in any war, the victor takes the spoils. The human sector was then divided in two, those who willingly became slaves and servants to the vampires and those who openly opposed their authority and formed part of the rebels. The rebels are being hunted through the wood to extinction and when captured they are either blood drained or turned into blood slave. The story begins when its main character is captured and then turned into a blood slave. The whole novel is fast paced; has secrets, misunderstands, love, intrigue...and an ending that'll make you want to keep reading. While the first book is free, the rest is not, but hey, an author has to eat, right? But not to worry, the writer is rather conscious of the economy and the prices are quite low ($ 2.99); not bad, huh? Hope you enjoy your reading! 

I leave you with the book description written by the writer: 

"Blood Slave.Captured, taken from her beloved family and woods, Aria’s biggest fear is not the imminent death facing her, but that she will be chosen as a blood slave for a member of the ruling vampire race. No matter what becomes of her though, Aria knows that she must keep her identity hidden from the monsters imprisoning her. She has already been branded a member of the rebellion, but the vampires do not know the true depth of her involvement with it, and they must never know. Though hoping for death, Aria’s world is turned upside down when a vampire named Braith steps forward to claim her. He delays her execution, but Aria knows it’s only a matter of time before he drains her, and destroys her. Especially once she learns his true identity as a prince within the royal family; the same royal family that started the war that ultimately brought down humankind, reducing them to nothing more than servants and slaves. Aria is determined to hate the prince, determined not to give into him in anyway, but his strange kindness, and surprising gentleness astonish her. Torn between her loyalties to the rebellion, and her growing love for her greatest enemy, Aria struggles to decide between everything she has ever known, and a love she never dreamed of finding."
