Perfect for you if...

  • You love banter-heavy romance where the couple clashes before they connect, especially when one character is genuinely dangerous to know
  • You're drawn to high-stakes plots that don't just exist to frame the romance—the mystery of the diamond and the killers matters as much as the relationship
  • You appreciate shorter reads (under 200 pages) that still pack real tension and character development without filler

Maybe not for you if...

  • You need slow-burn romance with lots of page time before the attraction kicks in. M.J. and Jack's chemistry ignites fast
  • You prefer squeaky-clean heroines. M.J. lies, punches people, and makes morally grey choices to survive
  • You want standalone romance. This is book two of a trilogy and assumes you've read the first one

About this book

Captive Star is the second book in the Stars of Mithra trilogy. M.J. O'Leary is quick to act first and think later. When bounty hunter Jack Dakota attempts to arrest her for bail jumping, she resists. Jack soon discovers that becoming involved with M.J. draws him into serious danger. M.J. is fleeing from hired killers and refuses to explain who is pursuing her or why she possesses a large blue diamond in her purse. Despite their reservations, M.J. and Jack develop an attraction to each other. Jack must decide whether he can trust M.J. given the many secrets she keeps.
