Capturing Cara

The Dragon Lords of Valdier, Book 2

By: S. E. Smith

Narrated by: David Brenin

Cara Truman is a pint-size pistol whose inquisitive nature has gotten her into trouble on more than one occasion. Her next adventure takes her further than she even expected when she ends up on a journey out of this world.

Trelon Reykill thought he had his hands full. A militant group of Curizans captured his brother Zoran, he's busy fortifying the Valdire defenses against the Sarafin warriors, and his dragon is roaring for him to find a mate. The last thing he expects to find on the primitive planet his brother has taken refuge on is his true mate.

Now Trelon must capture Cara long enough to make her his, but his symbiosis loves her, his dragon wants her, and someone is trying to kill her. Trelon must love Cara so well that she will never want to escape him - if he can catch her.

Any additional comments?

Capturing Cara is another 5 star story in the Dragon Lords of Valdier series. We meet Cara in bk. 1 Abducting Abby. Cara is a very petite Human, Genius Mechanical Engineer. Her IQ is off the charts, but what makes her an excellent female lead character is her spirit and her energy. Her True Mate we found out is Trelon a Valdier Dragon Warrior/Shifter and brother to the King of Valdier. Trelon wants to keep Cara chained up in a good way because she is creating havoc aboard there ship. Cara has re engineered all of there advance technology. Technology we don't even have on earth but because that's what makes her brain tick she just has to improve everything and make it work much better. At first this cause a bit of chaos with the ships environment and engines. Trelon thinks if he can chain her long enough to mate her she will change her ways. But Cara can undo any chains and get out of any situations to lock her up. She is a petite power house that packs a very large punch.

I love poor Telon constantly trying to tie down Cara and keep her out of trouble. They have some madcap adventures in the story that helps the Valdier enemies to try to hurt there mates and even capture Cara and her friend Trisha. But these are kick butt women. They are tough and strong, intelligent and also very beautiful. The romance between Telon and Cara is not as erotic as Zoran and Abby book one but it was sensual. I truly enjoyed Capturing Cara and I am Highly Recommending it for a fast fun and easy romance read.

Very enjoyable!

I really enjoyed the character of Cara! Mischievous, bubbly, inventive, vulnerable, highly intelligent and very talented. I love the spark that blazed through the book to put a smile and a chuckle on one's face. David Brenin did an absolutely superb rendering of the story that brought Cara to life so vivedly. Indeed a lovely series!

Loved this book!!

Better than the first!! The author does such a good job mixing the first book with this one. The books run along the same timeline, that totally different perspectives. Kara is one of the most interesting, funny and hyper characters I've ever heard. The has such a draw to her, you will instantly fall in love. The narrator is Great, he has perfect cadence and voices for each character. I would have loved to hear more about her exploits and mischievous adventures!! I hope the author makes more books that are along this line. Now off to book 3!

Even better than the first book

I was very excited to read Cara's story and could not have been more entertained. Cara is just full of energy that this planet was not prepared for... Amusing with just the right amount of conflict and action.

Great Sci-Fi

This book was so well written and performed!! It kept me wanting more and laughing through so many scenes!!!

Another great book!

Would you listen to Capturing Cara again? Why?

Yes, it made me happy and I will definitely listen to the whole series again.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Capturing Cara?

When she kept taking apart things so she could see how they worked and making them better. Trelon is so patient no matter how frustrated he gets.

Have you listened to any of David Brenin’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, this is one of my favorites.

Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?

Yes, if I had enough time all at once to do so.

Any additional comments?

I loved the whole series!

actually enjoying the series

I was very lerry at first, didn't want to waste another credit on another book that turned out to be shitty. I'm thoroughly enjoying this series tho, a few spots had me literally laughing out loud!

Another great book in a great series!

loved it! I can't wait to finish the series! Couldn't put it down once I started!

much better narrative than first book

Will definitely buy the next book, the narrator was much improved from the first book the story was good too;very romantic and funny.

My favorite book in the series

After reading/listening to the series a few times, I still have to say that this is my favorite. It has the most laughs & it's hot sexy & sweet. I would still recommend reading Abducting Abby first, even though there's a lot of repetition. It's like multiple viewpoints of the same action, as all storylines are overlapping. Brenin has become the voice of the series for me. I can focus on the characters and story instead of him.
