Here's what nice people are saying about Captive Spirit:
"Readers will cheer for the intrepid Aiyana and brave Honovi as the teens fight for their chance at love despite the collapse of their world."
"This isn't your traditional romance - it's much more!"
"Captive Spirit was utterly gripping and engaging."
"I hope there is a sequel to Captive Spirit and if there is, I can't wait to read it."
"I can't even recall offhand another character who so totally and completely sucked me into their life story, that even at 2:00 am, I refused to put the book down."
"The innocence of a pure, unfettered love was amazingly sweet and romantic."
"Though not classified as YA, I could see teens enjoying this story as much as adults."
"Some books tell one person’s story with such precise detail and honest attention that the story can be read again and again, for as the reader changes, so do the understandings that unfold with the narrative. Captive Spirit is that kind of book."
