4.0 out of 5 stars
Funny yet tender!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Panther's Prey (Paperback)
This story is about a woman named Amelia who had to move to Turkey with an aunt she barely remembered. She was kidnapped by a handsome man whom she couldn't resist. There are many colorful characters whom I will never forget. When I read this book, I can visualized myself in Turkey and being captive under this man named Malik Bey. The story described him as a handsome irresistable captor who has trouble pronouncing such English words. I truly enjoyed this book and have read over and over. The reason I also enjoyed this book is that this book is able to carry you away to another place and time the second you read the first sentence. If you haven't this yet, read it immediately or you will miss the adventure of a lifetime!

Captive Lover,
By
This review is from: Panther's Prey (Paperback)
This was a great romance that should be read by anyone who needs a little faith in love. I will admit, I at first was hesitant, because it was another women captive who falls for her captor story, but it still worth the effort. Malik may at times seem like an unsympathetic hero, because after all he does capture innocent women and sells them into the slave trade, all under his cause of freeing a people under an evil dictatorship. Amelia was one of his captives. (...) A very satisfying romance, I would recommend it to everyone!Cyndi

Panther's Prey,
This review is from: Panther's Prey (Paperback)
I enjoyed this book but it wasn't quite as exciting as previous book, The Panther and the Pearl. There was a lot of action and great descriptions of life in 1800's Turkey.
The hero, Malik, meets Amy when he holds up a coach that she is traveling in on her way to live with her aunt and uncle in Constantinople after her parents die in an accident. Malik kidnaps Amy, intending to sell her to slave traders to earn money for his fight against the Sultan, who is responsible for murdering his family. Malik takes her to his camp but isn't able to give Amy up. He finds out that she is related to the pasha of Bursa's wife Sarah by marriage, so he ends up getting a bribe out of Kalid, along with a promise from Kalid to help in the revolution. Malik and Amy are both very attracted to each other during the time she spends in the rebels camp, but Malik will not touch her because he promised Kalid she would be unharmed when he returned her. Eventually Amy is taken to live with her aunt and uncle, but both she and Malik have trouble forgetting each other. But how can they have a future when Malik is an outlaw fighting against the Sultan and Amy is stuck in Constantinople? The romance was good and enjoyable but the leads spend a bit too much time apart in the later half of the book. The story was very interesting to read. Overall, it was a great sequel to the exciting Panther and the Pearl, plus we got to see Kalid and Sarah 10 years later which was nice because we see a lot of them and how they made their different backgrounds work into a happy marriage. I would definitely recommend reading The Panther and the Pearl before this book so you understand what is going on much better. Panther's Prey was still a good historical romance set in an exotic location.
