 Blurb/Summary:

Seline has a secret crush on her coworker, Nox—the huge Dark Kindred warrior assigned to protect her on diplomatic missions. Once his Dominant side comes out, can she learn to submit? And will the two of them ever escape The Halls of Pain? You’ll have to read Trapped to find out.

Seline Kennison has a secret crush on the huge Dark Kindred warrior who acts as her Protector. Nox watches over her when she goes on diplomatic missions for the Kindred and keeps her safe when they are on strange planets together. There’s just one problem—Dark Kindred don’t have emotions. So how can Nox ever return her feelings when he has no feelings to return?

Nox the Dark Kindred warrior is having a problem—he has started having dreams of the curvy human woman he’s supposed to protect. And all the dreams are sexual in nature. Nox doesn’t know what to make of this—he’s never had emotions before but the feelings of tenderness, protectiveness, and desire seem to be growing inside him and they are all aimed at Seline. What is he going to do?

Things come to a head when the two are assigned a new mission—to go and bargain for the other half of the Far Box, an ancient artifact that is said to be able to control time and space. They have the first half but the entire artifact is needed for it to work—or so they think. But as they fly through the fold in space something strange happens…and they find themselves in an alternate universe.

Now Nox and Seline must try to navigate in a universe where everything is turned on its head. The powerful Mistress they were going to bargain with turns out to be a demanding Master. Within his domain, the Halls of Pain, Nox and Seline find a whole new dynamic. No longer coworkers, now they are Dom and sub and they must play their parts as if their lives depended on it—because they do.

But will the two of them ever make it home to their own universe? Or will they be forever 
Trapped? You’ll have to read this D/s, coworkers to lovers, secret crush, oops—I suddenly have emotions, Touch her and die, hot scifi romance novel to find out.

Author's Spice Note: Um...do I really have to say it? This is kind of a Fake Dating scenario where the tables are turned. That part where Seline has to prove what a good little sub she is by pleasing her Master...yeah, it gets spicy. Enjoy ; )

 

Review:

Evangeline Anderson went all Dr. Frankenstein on her Kindred and created a multiverse “monster” using bits and pieces from stories throughout the series, creating a loophole for endless story possibilities. I think that this may be the beginning of another series.

Nox and Seline play their parts well going back and forth to Yonnite Six during Kindred missions. Now they are asked to retrieve an important Kindred artifact from a powerful Mistress across the galaxy. However, things don’t go well at the beginning of their journey, and they end up in another universe where they must switch positions and learn to adapt very quickly.

Nox and Seline have a dynamic partnership and get along well. This trip brings them closer together and calls out the needs inside their hearts. Emotions are messy and Nox gets hits with them all. Seline learns to ask for what she desires, and her emotions give strength to Nox. Their chemistry is off the charts. This is a scorching page-turner of a story not to be missed.

There are strong D/s and BDSM themes throughout the story so fair warning. Never fear though, Evangeline Anderson always delivers a HEA or HFN after putting her characters through the ringer! This story doesn’t have a cliff-hanger, it is complete, but the circumstances open possibilities.

I received this ARC for an honest review.
