Captivated

Dr. Theophrastus Campbell leads a comfortable life, along with his twin brother, buried in academia. His unique gift for obscure languages goes unnoticed as he teaches University students to conjugate Latin. Everything in his world is just as it should be; restrained, understated, boring. He would give anything to break away. In all his daydreams of adventure, Theo never expected it to arrive in the form of an outrageously attractive Outlier covered in intriguing tattoos. And Theo never thought the price he might pay for adventure would be his own freedom.



Captain Park Jun-Seo leads a dangerous life, running a Crew of misfits through Restricted space as he desperately searches for the key to completing his parents' work. Work that could mean the difference between life and death for countless others.

Stoic Jun and irrepressible Theo must work together to break the code before their time is up. Falling into bed together is effortless, but their growing connection wasn't in the plan.

Theo begins their journey as a lighthearted adventure-until he cracks Jun's tough facade to reveal the hero within. Theo must decide if he can risk his battered heart when Jun is risking everything.



In the lawless depths of space, can two captive hearts set each other free?
