About this listen

Light years from home, science officer Lieutenant Eva La Croix and her all-female exploration team land on a planet they believe is a perfect substitute for the dying earth. Set upon by huge alien hunters, Eva is captured by the barbarian leader. Tossed over his shoulder, she is carried back to camp, tethered to his bed, and claimed as his own.

In spite of her fear, she is captivated by the gorgeous, human-like male with his long, gleaming, black hair; smooth bronze skin; and glimmering, golden eyes. Expecting her complete compliance, he strips her for an intimate and very thorough inspection. Horrified, Eva protests, but she quickly learns he is in complete command and resistance will be met with swift consequences, including a trip over his knee for a bare-bottom spanking.

Deemed compatible, Eva and her teammates are whisked away to an alien world where they are mated to these powerful, dominant men. While pampered and protected, the women are expected to submit to their mate's authority and breed their young.

Can Eva learn to adapt to their unusual beliefs and old-fashioned ways? Will she sacrifice her independence and surrender to this dynamic, all-consuming, highly sexual male who has conquered her body and, perhaps, her heart? Or when escape is imminent, will she flee with the others, forever leaving him behind and the rampant desire that now surges through her blood for her compelling barbarian?

Please note: The Barbarian's Captive is an erotic romance audiobook containing elements of BDSM, spanking, and sexual scenes. If this subject matter is offensive, please do not buy this book.

Barbarian’s Captive – Eva and Kerr

This book was really good although I didn’t care for the male-dominated society who punished women at the slightest infraction. In the beginning of the book when Kerr first captured Eva, I did not like him. Actually, I did not like him for most of the book. Eva was on the planet because her and her all-female team had a mission to find a planet to replace the dying earth. By the end, Kerr grew on me and we understand more how he felt about Eva. Eva thought Kerr only wanted her to have sex and to breed. She finds out a lot about the mate process when she tries to escape. As far as the narration, I really did not care for Rhonda Provencher but thought that Rodd Provencher did a very good job.

Enjoy

A good story with spice. Enjoyed listening to the interactions between the two main characters. You could feel the frustration and love in this story. Can’t wait to listen to more stories from Primari. Really liked the use of two narrators. Both were excellent, full of emotion and pulled you right in.

A fun read

This was a fun and delicious escape. Both narrators were perfect for their storyline and I really enjoyed how the female narrator did all the female voices and the male did all the male voices

Snippy Eva

I thought the story was good but all that male dominance was trying me crazy. But Eva and her snippiness and refusal to totally give in made it 1000x more enjoyable.

Not everyone's cup of tea, I guess

I had to laugh when I read some pieces of the reviews that others wrote. I am not sure what they expected, but it is apparently not what they got. This book is about an alien race that treats women like they have no purpose in life but to kowtow to their mate and spit out babies. Since there are still cultures on this planet that feel that way I just rolled my eyes and figured at least the sex was good.

Eve and seven other women are captured while they are conducting scientific surveys on a planet they hope might be a place for the remaining population of the earth to relocate to. Apparently, there are very few men left on Earth and those that remain spend most of their fighting wars, go figure. Eva's ship consists of about three hundred females who are searching for an alternative place to live as the earth deteriorates.

Kerr and his fellow warriors are off-world on a hunt when they find the alien females. There planet's population is declining ever since an asteroid broke up and hit it when Kerr was a child. Since that time the birthrates have fallen and couples are matched by their chances of successfully producing offspring. This has evidently caused the men to lose the part of their brains that allows them to see women as equal to them. Instead, they are protected and punished if they happen to have a stray intelligent thought. The punishment normally consists of having their bottoms spanked, and they are not allowed to be harmed. The Primarians mate for life.

Of course, Eva is not of a mind to follow some man's orders just because he claims he is her mate. Whatever. She might not like the punishments she gets, but she does like the sex and there is lots of that to be had. She mainly seems to be concerned that the mate bond has not manifested itself in her like it has most of her fellow abductees. Kerr does not seem to be bothered by this, but it makes her feel inferior and afraid that he will eventually replace her. This is going to get her all kinds of trouble.

I was given a copy of this audiobook by the author. My review is voluntary.

Sensual and Erotic

Maddie Taylor sure knows how to write an erotic novel with a great story line. She also has wonderful character development. Kerr is a strong yet caring man, while Eva is strong and sassy. Both are sexually driven. We watch Eva as she struggles with her loyalty to the people on earth and her growing love for Kerr. She also questions Kerr's love for her. There are explosive sexual scenes. The aliens also practice domestic discipline, but Kerr never hurts Eva. The narrators do an outstanding job of portraying the characters personalities and emotions. They create voices that are perfect for the characters. I asked to receive this Audible book and voluntarily wrote this unbiased review. I highly recommend this Audible book.

HOT AND STEAMY with a side of tenderness

I am fairly new to the sci fi scene, so had no real expectations, except that I have read some of this author's books and REALLY enjoyed them. This one did not disappoint; actually I LOVED it! There was just enough spice with interesting interactions between super gorgeous alien men and their female human captives. I really enjoyed the relationship between Kerr and Eva. He was a super Alpha sweetheart and she was stubborn and feisty with a cute side. I can't wait to listen to the rest of the series!

It took me a bit to get used to the dual narration, but I felt they both did a good job on the main characters. I thoroughly enjoyed the story line and the writer's way with words. I am very much looking forward to hearing the stories from the other characters!

Fantastic

I think that the story is really well done, and I love this entire series. Having dual narrators was a great idea with this story. It really brings the story to a new kind of life and is kind of a more intimate way of listening to the book than it would be if it were a singular narrator.
