The first thing that I have to point out about Lilith Enraptured is the world. The concept behind it grabbed my
attention from the very beginning. The book has a futuristic sci fi feel to it
with a slice of historical fantasy. This world consists of numerous different
planes/dimensions. Some are very technologically advanced while some are
extremely primitive and medieval feeling. It is all one world. Each dimension
has just evolved differently. There are even some similarities between the
different planes.
Lilith’s job within the Divinity is to go to different planes and study
them. She then compiles her data and analyzes it, compares it to others and moves
on to another dimension to observe some more. She loves her job. It allows her
to introduce new technology to multiple dimensions. There is just one problem
with her most recent jump into a new dimension, she did not take it willingly
and she has no clue as to where she is.
Sorin is a royal warrior in Staria. Staria is a dimension in constant
battle against a monstrous war mongering evil. The dimension he calls home can
be looked at as very primitive in their lifestyle. Their mating/marriage ritual
can definitely be considered barbaric compared to modern standards. He is one
of the few men that will be allowed to pick one of the otherworlder’s that has
been presented before him and a few of his fellow knightly warriors. Lilith
soon finds herself with a man claiming to be her husband in a faraway place
that she does not belong.
I liked everything about this book. The characters all fleshed out very
well. Sorin and Lilith work well as a couple. They both put forth a tremendous
amount of effort to make their seemingly impossible situation work out. Readers
are introduced very briefly to the heroines of the other three books, along
with the males that have taken them. I cannot wait to read the next books in
this series and I am ecstatic about the fact that they are on my Kindle waiting
for me.
Please note that this is an erotic romance. There are numerous scorching
hot sex scenes between a chest pounding alpha male that wants his hesitant
bride to want him as much as he wants her. Lilith has some self-doubts about
her desires. She wants to go home, but she wants Sorin even though it goes
against what she thinks she wants. They make some intense reading.
I love romance but mixing it with Sci-fi didn't work out for me. However this sounds solid in the love department.
