Series: The Dark Duet
Book One: Captive in the Dark
Synopsis:
Caleb is a man with a singular interest in revenge. Kidnapped as a young boy and sold into slavery by a power-hungry mobster, he has thought of nothing but vengeance. For twelve years he has immersed himself in the world of pleasure slaves searching for the one man he holds ultimately responsible. Finally, the architect of his suffering has emerged with a new identity, but not a new nature. If Caleb is to get close enough to strike, he must become the very thing he abhors and kidnap a beautiful girl to train her to be all that he once was.
Eighteen-year-old Olivia Ruiz has just woken up in a strange place. Blindfolded and bound, there is only a calm male voice to welcome her. His name is Caleb, though he demands to be called Master. Olivia is young, beautiful, naïve and willful to a fault. She has a dark sensuality that cannot be hidden or denied, though she tries to accomplish both. Although she is frightened by the strong, sadistic, and arrogant man who holds her prisoner, what keeps Olivia awake in the dark is her unwelcome attraction to him.
WARNING: This book contains very disturbing situations, dubious consent, strong language, and graphic violence.

Review:
Is it weird that I wish I could be kidnapped by someone like Caleb? He is the epitome of "bad boy". This book is sadistic, sexual, and captivating. I couldn't put it down. I love the dark storyline with a little bit of romance mixed in. Ready to know where things lead!
Book Two: Seduced in the Dark
Synopsis:
What is the price of redemption?
Rescued from sexual slavery by a mysterious Pakistani officer, Caleb carries the weight of a debt that must be paid in blood.
The road has been long and fraught with uncertainty, but for Caleb and Livvie, it’s all coming to an end.
Can he surrender the woman he loves for the sake of vengeance?
Or will he make the ultimate sacrifice?

Review:
Love that Caleb is trying to seek redemption for everything bad he has done in his past. Trying to make things better so he can be with Livvie. All the raw emotion between Caleb and Livvie. I laughed and cried right along with them.
Book Three: Epilogue
Synopsis:
I’m writing this because you begged. You know how I love the begging. In fact, you probably know too many things and know them far too well.
Who am I?
Well,
that’s what I’m trying to figure out. I was a whore in my youth, a
killer since my adolescence, and a monster as a man. I am the man who
kidnapped Livvie. I am the man who held her in a dark room for weeks.
But, most importantly, I am the man she loves.
She loves me. It’s quite sick, isn’t it?
Of
course, there’s more to our story than can be surmised in a few short
sentences, but I’m at a loss for justifying my behavior back then. I
assume if you’re reading this, I don’t need to make those
justifications. You’ve already made your own.
You’re reading this
because you want to know about the rest of the story. You want to know
what happened that warm summer night in September of 2010, the night I
met Livvie at The Paseo. It was the night my life changed all over
again.
It didn’t happen exactly as Livvie said. She’s been very
kind to me in the retelling of our story. The truth is far
more…complicated.

Review:
The emotionally finale to the Dark Duet series from Caleb's point of view. It is nice to see that other side of the story. To know what he was thinking during that time. This entire series you have so many different reactions to the characters, but in the end you actually want them to be together. You are so happy when it finally happens! Absolutely loved this series and excited to see what else C. J. Roberts has to offer!
