**Midnight Captive** by Penelope Neri is the kind of romance that'll have you staying up way past your bedtime, clutching your reading lamp like your life depends on it. This passionate historical romance follows a headstrong heroine who finds herself literally captive to a brooding, mysterious hero – because sometimes love really does require a little kidnapping, apparently. Neri weaves together themes of forbidden desire, redemption, and the fine line between captivity and protection in this steamy page-turner. Perfect for romance readers who like their heroes a bit morally ambiguous and their heroines feisty enough to give as good as they get. Think bodice-ripper meets psychological tension with just enough angst to keep things interesting. This preloved copy from Patina Paperbacks has been loved before and is ready for its next adventure on your nightstand. *"Couldn't put it down – finished it in one sitting!"* – Sarah M. *"Neri knows how to write chemistry that practically sizzles off the page."* – BookLover_Jenny
